This is spot on; I have avoided these missteps as well and, to date, have not been shot by George Zimmerman. It’s solid advice.

I might share this on Facebook, but there’s some people on the other side on my friends list.

You left out, ‘Don’t try to grab George Zimmerman’s gun while saying, “tonight you die, ************”’

[Alex Murphy]

Step #1: Don’t pin George Zimmerman down on the ground.
Step #2: Don’t break George Zimmerman’s nose.
Step #3: Don’t give George Zimmerman two black eyes.
Step #4: Don’t repeatedly slam George Zimmerman’s head on the pavement.
That’s it. Just four simply, easy steps.

Step #0: Learn to plan ahead. Don't wait until the last minute to buy your Skittles.

nice

Since I haven’t really followed the case, how do we know that is how events transpired?

[Twotone]

And when someone seems to be following you, and you arrive at your home, go inside and shut and lock the door!

[null and void]

Or it could have gone like this:

- Hey, are you following me?
- Ummm, yes.
- May I ask why?
- Well, uh, we've had a number off robberies in this neighborhood lately, and I don't recognize you...
- Oh, well, I'm Travon Martin, I'm spending the summer at my uncle's in unit 12. I expect you'll see a lot of me this summer.
- OK, thanks, good to know. I'm George Zimmerman, by the way.
They shake hands.
- No, thank you for keeping an eye out for your neighbors!

[School of Rational Thought]

A bit limited to talking head points.

I would have added Don’t tell Zimmerman he is going to die tonight

[zencycler]

Step 1 should be - Don’t become irrationally rageful if George Zimmerman seems interested in what you are doing or where you are going in his neighborhood.

[Tennessee Nana]

This is good advice...

Im just like Trayvon...Im NOT a white man...

But following rules like these in my nearly 65 years I have avoided getting shot by George Zimmerman...

[donmeaker]

I wish Zimmerman hadn’t sent that darn telegram.

[MeganC]

LOL!!!

[SamAdams76]

I’ve been following those easy steps diligently for my entire adult life. I don’t know if I will end up living forever but so far so good.

[5thGenTexan]

He missed the most important one:

#5: Don't go for George Zimmerman's handgun.

[Rodamala]

Step 1: Don’t act like a person that Paula Deen might call an “n-word”.

There’s this

When you embrace a certain lifestyle, you become a 2-bit punk in school.
When you become a 2-bit punk in school, you think it’s funny to write “WTF” on someone’s locker.
When you write “WTF” on someone’s locker, you get reported.
When you get reported, you get YOUR locker searched.
When you get YOUR locker searched, they find stolen items and burglary tools.
When they find stolen items and burglary tools, you get a long suspension.
When you get a long suspension, your Mother sends you away for awhile to your father’s little town.
When you are away in your father’s little town, you get bored.
When you get bored, you take long walks through unfamiliar places.
When you take long walks through unfamiliar places, you get spotted and followed by Neighborhood watches.
When you get spotted and followed by Neighborhood watches, you get pissed.
When you get pissed, you start fighting.
When you start fighting, you start winning and feeling good. When you start winning and feeling good, you keep pounding.
When you keep pounding, you get shot through the heart by a concealed carry.

Don’t get shot through the heart by a concealed carry.
Don’t be a 2-bit punk in school

[Dixie Yooper]

If George Zimmerman had wanted to pretend he was a police officer, he would have had his gun drawn and pointed at the perp when he approached him. That alone tells me he didn't intend on shooting himself an African-American, but wanted to have his gun just in case things ended up the way they did.

Great post bump!
