What does "armed with the sidewalk" even mean? I mean, really?

I seriously cannot make any sense of this.

You guys, I feel like the Hulk. I am pretty good at ignoring shit, but once I start thinking about it for even one minute, I am insta-rage. That's my secret: I'm always angry.

I hear you, Jesse. Though for me, it's insta-rage that immediately becomes crushing hopelessness.

Yes, they argued that he "weaponized the sidewalk".

I'm trying to come up with a joke about how he must have had superpowers, but it's too fucking depressing to joke about.

Seriously, what does that mean? I didn't read any of the testimony (because my head needs to be in the sand sometimes). Did he throw a chunk of it at the guy or something?

Flaunt your unarmed privilege, why don't you?

Sorry, man.

At some point in the fight, Martin hit Zimmerman's head against the sidewalk. I think there was differing testimony about how much force he used -- the back of Zimmerman's head was bleeding from it, though. Thus, he used the sidewalk as a weapon, and so he was armed.

I took an advil and I ate and my head still hurts and then it really hurts if I get up and move around. I am taking a hot shower and going back to bed.

FWIW, I don't believe this. We only have GZ's word this occurred and TM had no DNA on his hands from GZ. I think most of GZ's wounds were self-inflicted.

As i understand it TM also had no wounds or damage to his hands at all which, while not impossible, calls a whole lot of GZ's story into question.
