Do you mind providing a link to an actual post there that you see as "defending Zimmy"?

I'm surprised you missed this post of someone point defending and justifying the Zimpigs shooting

Defending Zimm and suggesting the state didn't prove their case are two different things

Bless your little heart. Of course you can't remember any posts defending Zimmerman.
