“...fed up, mad as hell and wasn’t going to take it anymore...”
sure sounds like a wannabe Dirty Harry to me. Lock him up. Instead of observing and reporting, he confronted a scared young black guy who up to the point where he fatally crossed paths with Zimmerman was doing absolutely nothing wrong. IMO Zimmerman was the instigator of the confrontation...

Lock him up.

Absolutely. Lock him up based on speculations by someone who wasn't there. Sounds like justice to me!

Do you know all the facts in the case?

Consider how many times a night a neighborhood watch prevents a crime from being committed.

Also consider how many times guns are used to stop a crime.

Do we really want to continue down the road of setting public policy based on a very small sample of carefully selected incidences?

That night there were probably as many times over cases where a neighborhood watch prevented a crime or a gun was justifiably used to defend themselves, but those don’t meet the media narrative so they are ignored in favor of this incident.

Horsepucky! I’m an informal Neighborhood Watch guy in my neighborhood and would also be “mad as hell” if my neighorhood was getting burgalrized! According to you, that would make me a wannabe “Dirty Harry” also. Heck, I even challenge the cops if I observe them hanging around my neighborhood; some explain why they’re there and some refuse, after which I call their station and ask the dispatcher. IMHO, you’re jumping the shark when all the evidence is NOT known yet.
