Fat zimmerman did NOT catch up with Trayvon, ok. Lets just make that clear. Its obvious that zimmerman was in no shape to catch a lean 17 yr old dem. He hid. Then popped out.
Jeantel egged him on. She told him he was possibly some gay rapist. And thats why he punched zimmerman in the face once faced with zimmerman. He had no idea who zimmerman was. He was high, paranoid and being fed disinfo by Jeantel.
Zimmerman did not have his weapon drawn when he confronted trayvon. No 17 yr old kid is going to punch a man in the face who is holding a gun at him. So in my opinion, zimmerman confronted, asked what he was doing here, trayvon sized him up, confused as to who he was or wanted, punched him, zimmerman fell, trayvon got on top (according to an eye witness) and zimmerman fired in a softy panic.
Lets face it, if you need to use deadly force to stop a gangly 140 lb kid then you are soft. But being soft doesnt make you a murderer. Its all in your state of mind. if you feel like your life in danger, then you can defend yourself with lethal force. Jury agreed.
