Basically Martin was standing his own ground when he asked Zimmerman why he was following him.

You do not need a gun to do that!

Frankly if you were being followed by an armed Hispanic man who outweighed you 35% and who was taller and burlier, I suspect you would not 'stand your own ground" would you.

Well, this kid did, and as could be expected the armed Hispanic man shot him to death for no reason at all.

That's the sort of thing that tells us we ALL need to pack heat when out at dark ~ lest we run into an armed Hispanic man.

Sounds like a mindless prejudice, but the Martin kid is dead because he forgot to arm himself.

Whoops~ as a minor he's not allowed to do that. Well, better luck in his next life.

I think it was Chucky Schumer who sponsored the legislation to take gun rights away from minors! Chalk this one up to Chucky and his running dog lackeys.

I’ve heard that the kid tried to run away and hide, but Zimmerman followed him while talking to the 911 operator, who told him to not detain the person. He told the operator something like “this one isn’t getting away.” Martin stood his ground after being hunted down.

Arming teenagers isn’t a good idea, but one neighbor who called 911 told the operator that the kid was screaming for help “but I’m not going out there.” A few seconds later, you hear the gunshots on the 911 tape.
