When did Z leave the protection of his vehicle?
Come on. I want to do cellar on patrol as much as the next guy or gal. But, I’m not going to tackle punks by myself. Even one on one.
I’m calling the cops and waiting.
If I wait for SAPD . . . no chance of attack. Is that so hard to understand?
say hello to Holder for us .....
Maybe Zimmerman wanted to see if Martin was just going home or going into someone else’s home. If Martin was entering his own home, there would be no need for the police to respond.
And that is EXACTLY what Zimmerman did. Unfortunately, your premise is false because Zimmerman was indeed attacked as he waited for the police.
Try learning the facts of this case lest you continue to come across as an uninformed fool channeling his inner liberal.
Why would you assume Z needed protection? He didn't assume it.

Sounds like you have been listening to rumors that started last year and have made your mind up. Obviously you have not been watching the trial where the FACTS have been presented every single day.
People with smarts and common sense have come to the conclusion that the 17 year old thug, and wanna-be-gangsta, wanted to fight and was shot only because GZ felt his life was threatened.
In all cases one shouldn’t follow a suspect, they should only call the police and wait?

John Brewer was manager of Hardy’s Shoe Store in Oak Cliff. After hearing a news flash that J. D. Tippit had been shot nearby, he saw a man acting strangely outside the shop: “The police cars were racing up and down Jefferson with their sirens blasting and it appeared to me that this guy was hiding from them. He waited until there was a break in the activity and then he headed west until he got to the Texas Theatre.”
Brewer went into the theatre and spoke to Warren Burroughs, the assistant manager. Burroughs had seen him enter the balcony of the theatre. When the police arrived Brewer accompanied the officers into the cinema where he pointed out the man he had seen acting in a suspicious manner. After a brief struggle Oswald was arrested.

What George Zimmerman did was not unusual or illegal. Trayvon Martin chose to attack Zimmerman instead of just going into his home or calling 911.

Zimmerman had called the police. He was in his truck when the operator asked him for the address. No address- no cops? Get it?
So, he gets out of his truck to find out the address, and is approached by Trayvon.
You say that you would wait for the police- well, what if they don't know where you are, and you don't know exactly where you are? Wait for them to just happen to come upon you?
