  Regardless of what happened, Zimmerman got out of his vehicle against the 911 dispatcher's instructions, was the instigator/aggressor in the situation and decided deadly force against an unarmed person was the way to get out of any issues his confrontation resulted in. Arrest the bastard.

  Stand your Ground law or not, it's the same as walking up to someone, starting a fight and shooting the guy cause he kicked your ass. That is not self defence. And in this case, I highly doubt the kid, who weighed 60lbs less, could defend himself regardless.

  Now had the kid shot this Zimmerman, who was following him on the street and provoked an altercation without due cause, that would be more in line and spirit of the stand your ground law. Assuming he had no other course of action to escape safely.

  • Trayvon was on his cell phone as Zimmerman came up and the other party said Trayvon was worried that he was being followed prior to the altercation.– ETM1/3

    followed (by Zimmerman) before the altercation occurred.– ETM2/3

    I guess it wasn't a 911 dispatcher, but a non-emergency police dispatcher.– ETM3/3
