Eye witnesses to how it started or eye witnesses after the altercation was already taking place.

According to what I have seen, there was loud talking between the two which attracted the attention of those who then witnessed the actual fight that ensued. Heck, the whole thing was audible on more than one 911 call. There are more eye witnesses to this thing than any other of the sensationalized crimes I can remember. There is one thing about this whole deal that really bothers me. The sheriffs of Florida are the ones responsible for enforcing the law down there, waaay more than they are in Kentucky. They have all the authority and expertise they need to do good police work. Nobody down in Florida slams the sheriff department of their jurisdiction, respect for sheriffs is the norm. They really have their act together. Those who assume this matter was rejected out of hand by some Barney Fife, are most likely very mistaken.

The police authority in that jurisdiction already investigated the matter and came to a professional assement of the crime/lack of crime. The media stirred up a hornet's nest with the help of Sharpton and Jackson but, I see this thing coming out the same way. Not to say it will, but that's the way it looks to me.
