It is highly doubtful that a typical suburban newleywed would be looking for a life to take in cold blood for the fun and experience of it.

It is dark. You are rousted out of sleep and you imagine the worst, that your house is being broken into. The adrenaline has to be pounding your heart. If you can’t see well in the dark, then you don’t know that the man is old or if he has a weapon. If you can’t tell he doesn’t have a weapon, then a person is going to be on edge to shoot just our of raw fear of being shot first.

We honestly don’t know the circumstances. After the story is published, we know all the facts. We don’t know what the home-owner saw or how dark and shadowed the situation was. The story is not well written. The elderly man rings the bell and tries the door knob yet is shot in the back yard. What happened in between?

Finally, words of wisdom.

I disagree with the statement “after the story is published, we know all the facts.” A lot of people claim facts in the Zimmerman incident simply because the media published them even though they’ve been proven lies.

No that it makes a difference, but fiance and newlywed are not the same thing.
