You seem to pick and choose your facts. At the time of the attack/killing Zimmerman was by his truck and not pursuing Trayvon as the dispatcher had asked.

Bullshit, I'm not picking and choosing a damn thing. Zimmerman was following Martin his in SUV, de-boarded, and the dispatcher told him to get his dumb ass back in the vehicle. He said, okay. That's what happened.

Had Zimmerman stayed in his SUV from the jump, this thread wouldn't even exist.

He did? You must have read some transcripts I'm not aware of.

Had Martin not walked through a neighborhood that wasn't his own, this thread wouldn't even exist.

Had previous burglaries have not had happened in the neighborhood causing people to be on guard like Zimmerman, this thread wouldn't even exist.


We can play that game all day long on. At the end of the day, Zimmerman was within his right to follow a suspicious person in trying to protect his neighborhood. This doesn't mean he instigated anything, it simply means he's doing what anybody else probably would have after a few burglaries in the neighborhood. Does this give him a right to harass or shoot a person? Not at all. Does this mean Zimmerman DID harass Martin? Not all all. Does this mean that Zimmerman killed Martin in cold blood? Not at all. At the end of the day, we don't know what happened based on the evidence, but we can collaborate some of Zimmerman's story with it though.
