Why would TM confront Zimmerman in the first place? Zimmerman didn't know where TM was for at least two minutes that we know of. Why didn't TM just go the short distance home and call LE if he was so frightened. Maybe TM was not frightened, maybe TM was spoiling for a fight after being suspended from school and separated 5 hours from his girlfriend. He probably never imagined GZ would have a gun. Maybe he sees GZ get out of his truck and thinks to himself, I can take this short, fat, whitey. How do we know TM wasn't thinking about robbing GZ when he was done beating the carp out of him?
Just my opinion.
Throwing out the race card works both ways and 17 yr. old "children" kill all the time, they kill their classmates, they kill each other, they kill people just because of their race, and it works both ways. 17 yr. old "children" rape, they assault, they molest children, they sell drugs. There's reality and there's the inside of one's backside. Reality is, this thing has gotten completely out of hand. Shamefully out of hand.
Just my opinion.
