Yes and I’ve yet to see any truly current pictures of Trayvon. I believe it is a tragedy but the uproar is being fed unconscionably. If Trayvon did indeed attack Zimmerman while he was returning to the vehicle then the people who should be answering for his death are those that elevate thug culture to being “black culture”. We see it all the time. People getting killed because they ‘dis-respect’ the brother which is really the problem the black community faces. They should be marching not to get justice or respect they should be marching to challenge themselves and their children to be respectful and not be stupid violent in the face of every perceived slight.

It appears what happenned was that Trayvon was bashing Zimmerman’s head into the ground (this is confirmed by the injuries recorded in the police report) Zimmerman’s shirt came up revealing his weapon tucked in his belt, Trayvon went for it and they struggled and Zimmerman shot him.
If there is evidence that Zimmerman initiated the attack there may be negligence on his part but he doesn’t deserve to go to prison because he was defending himself from an attack. If we allow a man to suffer what is quickly becoming a case of reverse racism.

I pointed out a while back that a victim could end up being prosecuted for a hate crime and this case is begining to look like that could happen. George Zimmerman could end up facing charges and additional penalties just because he got in a scuffle with a person of the wrong race.
