Why? The similarities are obvious to anyone. Zimmerman had called 911 to report Martin, Scott had called 911 to report Ables. Zimmerman says he was attacked by Martin. Scott says she beleived she was about to be attacked by Ables. Zimmerman feared for his safety. Scott feared for her safety. Both were legally carrying firearms. Both used their firearms within the guidelines of the laws of their state. Neither one should be prosecuted for doing what law says they were legally entitled to do.
One report says she called 911 to report Ables' aggressive behavior before the shooting. Another report says she placed the 911 call after the shooting.
As I've said - shouldn't we all wait until the facts shake out?
There's one obvious dissimilarity right there -- with many more to follow as the case unfolds.
Scott feared for her safety.
Was that before or after she exited the vehicle with gun in hand and put two bullets in his chest.
