Yes. Exactly my point. Her testimony indicates that Martin assumed a man chasing him was a gay rapist. He then attacked the man on that assumption.

If anything, that testimony, which you find credible, indicates that Martin profiled Zimmerman as a homosexual "rapist" and attacked him out of homophobia.

Is it really your position that every time a perceived gay man runs it is reasonable to assume that he is out to rape a teenaged boy?

Because that it is the theory you are advancing here.


No you've constructed one of your strawman arguments again. In this instance you put forward that being afraid of being raped by a strange guy who follows you as you try to flee is somehow homophobic. Sorry but that's just dumb. I'll give you some credit and believe that somewhere in your mind you don't actually believe what your posting.


Fair play!
