“I believe that Zimmerman was destined for such an encounter.”
Actually there are a lot of neighborhoods in many areas
where anyone walking outside at night for any reason is
destined for such an encounter. The difference is that most
of the time when that encounter occurs the victim is unarmed, the thug triumphs and justice is thwarted. In this
case it would appear that when it comes to choosing victims
Trayvon “chose poorly”, and paid for that poor choice.
I thought that the armed Zimmerman chose to follow Martin who was walking back to the residence of his future step mother holding a bag of Skittles and ice tea.
Interesting that you treat what Zimmerman’s father and brother said to the media as fact when neither are witnesses and an actual audio witness, Martin’s girlfriend, states to have heard something totally different.
What about the witness who expressed that Zimmerman was on top when the gun was fired and expressed the belief that it was Martin screaming for help?
What about the witness who claimed to have heard back and forth arguing before the fighting began, something that contradicts what Zimmerman’s father and brother (non-witnesses) claim?
We know that there was a scuffle. But we don’t yet know how it started and may never. But it is irresponsible to take a claim by two biased non-witnesses as fact because it supports your opinion.
