Public opinion has already decided Zimmerman is guilty, facts are pretty much irrelevant at this point.

It's funny, people for Zimmerman are claiming he invoked the "Stand your Ground" (or something to that effect) Doctrine when he confronted Martin; but wouldn't the kid be doing the same thing to a stranger who was obviously following him for a few blocks? It just worked out that Zimmerman had a gun on him.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not condemning the guy, not at least until the facts get out there, but that got me thinking.

Zimmrman could have avoided the fight by not giving chase,
The kid couldve avoided getting shot by not bashing his head in,

It's a real mess. Glad I live and work in Idaho.

Zimmerman's story is that he had lost sight of Martin, and started to make his way back to his vehicle then Martin confronted him.
