I feel so badly for GZ... having to relive this every day... being embarrassed; called "soft" and his friend buying his clothes... and all of the other accusations. It's like he's not even allowed to have dignity throughout this process but there he sits... very dignified in spite of them all.

He just shifted the pain suffering from Trayvon to George!

I think most people are smart enough to understand that medical advances to improve human life and research is done on live animals. Why would it be a disaster. Rescuing animals is not at all the same as increasing medical technology to help humans. Of course, heart and kidney repair plus other techniques are done on animals first. The good Doctor is brilliant. Going to the heart of the matter in living color on screen. Oh my, the Tray heads must be exploding. Where is that mannequin???

Edit to fix broken quote. I think it was mbtb, but if I am wrong, please let me know. TIA

And now DiMaio is deconstructing Rao's absurd testimony, wherein she attempted to minimize the number of impacts evinced on Zimmerman's head, and the extent of sustained injuries.

He got out of the vehicle....

Two dead bunnies? I didn't hear that. I was thinking these experiments was done a long time ago and are recorded ect. Why use more animals now? Experiments with live animals are usually done by putting them under so they won't feel it. This could have been done that way. Usually piglets are used because they most resemble humans for testing of this sort.

Sometimes it is of use to explain date done and how the animals felt no pain.

Hi, menostupid! Exactly what I mean about being ambidextrous. And congrats on that athlete!

PS - I saw you tried to fix your post and so all know, when quoting a tweet, either move the tweet outside of the quoted text, delete the tweet, or just paraphrase or quote the content in text instead of copying/quoting tweet. Otherwise, your comment gets swallowed by what you're quoting and Rumpole gets annoyed. (Mostly at me for posting too many tweets!) If anyone has any questions about quoting a post with a tweet in it, please PM (send a private message) me so we don't get our hands slapped for tying up the trial thread with o/t stuff.

Were I George, I would just be grateful folks were willing to help me in my hour of need and Thank G-d. George knows he is soft as the Pillsbury Dough Boy. Observations are not accusations.

12:26 p.m.
Dr. Di Maio says the laceration is a marker of force. “It indicates you’ve had severe force, it’s not like you just bumped your head,” he says.

He says severe trauma to the head is possible without external injury.

He says stunning is not incapacitating.

West asks about punctate abrasions.

Dr. Di Maio says a surface with an edge to it would be required to create those injuries.

He points out a “knot” on Zimmerman’s head, which he says is associated with the punctate abrasions.

He points out more injuries on different photos.

West asks about the photo showing Zimmerman with a bloody nose.

Dr. Di Maio points out the injuries to the nose on a enlarged print photo.

He says the nose is consistent with a possible displace fracture.

He says it’s consistent with being punched in the nose.

West shows the photo taken of Zimmerman at the police station.

Dr. Di Maio says the swelling appears to be gone, suggesting that he had a displaced fracture and they pushed it back in.

12:11 p.m.
He says it’s not a medical term, but the best word to describe it is stunned when the head is hit.

West asks him about lacerations to the scalp.

West shows photographs taken of Zimmerman’s head.

Dr. Di Maio points out injuries and swelling on the head.

“You know there are two separate impacts,” he says, pointing out the two lacerations.

He says a laceration can be cause by perpendicular impact causing a tear or a hit at an angle that slides against the surface causing a tear.

12:03 p.m.
Dr. Di Maio says Martin could have moved his arms.

He says he agrees with Dr. Bao’s conclusion of an abrasion on Martin’s fingers.

He says it is consistent with contact with a hard surface.

Dr. Di Maio says bruising depends on what part of the body is punched.

He says there may or may not have been bruising, but it wouldn’t make much difference.

Once the blood pressure goes, he says bruising is not possible.

Dr. Di Maio says proper examination would have been to cut the area to look for damage.

West asks about the injuries Zimmerman had.

Dr. Di Maio confirms he was provided the photographs.

He says when the head is impacted, the brain, which is like gelatin, shifts. He says that creates bruising or bleeding.

The other type of brain injury is called axonal. He says when the brain moves, the axons stretch. If the movement is violent, they stretch causing injury to the wall. Mild movement is repaired by the axon, he says.

He says the force in an automobile accident is so great the axons cannot be repaired. He says impacts of the head on a hard surface can create intracranial bleeding.

He says concrete doesn’t yield.

I am left-handed. I can't do much of anything competently with my right hand (except use a mouse).

When I started shooting, I forced myself to shoot two-handed, strong-hand-only, and weak-hand-only. I am competent - in that I can properly handle the gun, and hit the target at 7 yards - with my right hand, but no more than merely competent. It's also the only thing I've really forced myself to do with my right hand.

NOTE... these photo exhibits are "washed out" and don't show injuries as well as photos... guess what... they are STATE exhibits... it looks like to me that they intentionally produced washed out versions.... they are a pack of Weasels

His testimony DOESN'T really MATTER 2 me. He can't address #GZ's following/pursing #TM, confronting or even how struggle evolved/devolved.

The facts have never mattered to her.

Just read this at CTH and it's so funny I figured I would post it here.
