iam90sbaby 2,125 Posted July 5, 2019 In this area, anyone walking around with a hood would be approached. It’s a nice middle class community with gated neighborhoods all over it and Trayvon was a scumbag from South Florida and probably didn’t even know what a neighborhood watch was. He has issues with authority and I guarantee you the conversation went like this ”Hey what are you doing?” ”Quit focking following me man I ain’ doin’ sheeeet.” Thats suspicious and GZ immediately followed him. Trayvon started to beat his a$$ and it became a life or death situation. Trayvon then got shot. Eric Zolder was the AG and signed off on all of this. As the law is written Zimmerman didn’t break any laws. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I've heard/read, he legally owned and carried the gun, so this didn't "create the situation". I have no horse in this race because both are at fault, but this statement, I adamantly disagree with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The national sheriffs assoc recommends neighborhood watch not carry but GZ was within his rights to do so. Where he really focked up was following someone on foot when the cops told him not to.

drobeski 3,061 Posted July 6, 2019 23 hours ago, MDC said: Nobody is denying that GZ got his ass kicked. The question is who confronted who? For some reason you believe a guy who brought a gun on neighborhood watch, followed Trayvon on foot after the cops told him not to, and has had a restraining order filed against him and multiple arrests and run ins with the law since. I can’t imagine why. Because Zimmermann is Hispanic? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trayvon was just an innocent kid walking home, wondering why a creepy guy was stalking him. Zimmerman was concerned about recent burglaries, didn't recognize Trayvon as local (correctly, he was visiting a family friend) and thought he seemed suspicious. Then everything from there spiraled out of control and was just tragic. Everything happens for a reason. Some times the reason is you are stupid and make bad decisions.
