Mr. Zimmerman places the call to the SFD telling them of recent criminal activity in the neighborhood and that he sees a suspicious character there.

So, if there was a recent incident of criminal activity on my street, and then I saw someone who was unknown to me, I can first follow that individual, with his knowledge that I am doing so, and, perhaps, initiate some type of contact with that individual, regardless of whether he is actually doing anything of a criminal nature, and then, if he becomes upset and/or violent with me, despite the fact that I initiated the contact, I can shoot and kill the individual? Okay, got it. Committed to memory. It is okay to commit a homicide just so long as I am somewhere on my street and following someone who is unknown to me and I THINK they might be up to no good because SOMEONE ELSE committed criminal activity in the past. That is good to know. I hope you don't mind that I don't actually engage in such stupid behavior.

You are emotionally hysterical and so blinded that you can't see the plain facts in front of your face. I will make one more attempt and then I give up.

There is absolutely ZERO evidence that Mr. Zimmerman initiated any contact with Mr. Martin. None - and I defy you to provide any such evidence. In fact, the evidence clearly shows Mr. Zimmerman did exactly what he was supposed to do which is inform the police and wait for their assistance. He did start to follow him when he ran, but when told it wasn't necessary by the police he said OKAY and stopped.

I don't know how much plainer it can be and why you are so obtuse. Do you really have that much trouble admitting that you got caught up in the hype and may have misjudged the situation?
