clo,

It does nothing of the sort. It's a pretty lousy video.

To get you to understand, I'd need to explain the difference between "it shows no blood or bruises" and "it does not show blood or bruises." I'm not going to do that. As I recall, you're still one of those who thinks GWB's incorrect belief that WMDs were in Iraq constituted a LIE. If you never grasped why it wasn't, you aren't going to understand my point now.

But, of the two quotes, the latter is the correct one. The explanation is that it is a poor video, and not all injuries necessarily bleed. I'm sure there will be some evidence to back up the police's claim that he was injured. They had no reason to lie.

This story is no longer of interest to me. It is not a hate crime and, in the great scheme of things, it's not really a very interesting event. It was funny for a while, but it's time to move on.

I'm resigned to the fact, however, that the left desperately WANTS to manufacture a hate crime out of nothing so they won't look like such complete buffoons for having, ONCE AGAIN, demonstrated their utter incompetence at interpreting world events. I understand. You gotta do what you gotta do.

Trayvon Martin Video Shows No Blood or Bruises on George Zimmerman

http://abcnews.go.com/WN/trayvon-martin-case-exclusive-surveillance-video-george-zimmerman/story?id=16022897

A police surveillance video taken the night that Trayvon Martin was shot dead shows no blood or bruises on George Zimmerman, 
the neighborhood watch captain who says he shot Martin after he was punched in the nose, knocked down and had his head slammed into the ground.

The surveillance video, which was obtained exclusively by ABC News, shows Zimmerman arriving in a police cruiser. As he exits the car, his hands are cuffed behind his back. Zimmerman is frisked and then led down a series of hallways, still cuffed.

Zimmerman, 28, is wearing a red and black fleece and his face and head are cleanly shaven. He appears well built, hardly the portly young man depicted in a 2005 mug shot that until a two days ago was the single image the media had of Zimmerman.

Police Video Surveillance of George Zimmerman

The initial police report noted that Zimmerman was bleeding from the back of the head and nose, and after medical attention it was decided that he was in good enough condition to travel in a police cruiser to the Sanford, Fla., police station for questioning.

His lawyer later insisted that Zimmerman's nose had been broken in his scuffle with 17-year-old Martin.

In the video an officer is seen pausing to look at the back of Zimmerman's head, but no abrasions or blood can be seen in the video and he did not check into the emergency room following the police questioning.
