There’s always two sides to every story. Unfortunately, Zimmerman has already been convicted thanks to lame stream hysterical media who never get the facts in a case.
If we go no further than what Zimmerman says to the 911 dispatcher he is in big trouble.
Since I posted this, I’ve come on more information posted here on FR that shows we FReepers are a lot better journalists than, among others, “the journalists at Fox News,” as self-described by Shepard Smith. It turns out there are one or more independent witnesses who corroborate Zimmerman’s testimony that Martin attacked Zimmerman after Zimmerman dropped off his pursuit of Martin. Please see:

It always helps to get the whole story before jumping to conclusions.
Now it looks like this started with Zimmerman following Martin and then getting out of his truck to have some type of ill-advised personal interaction with Martin. Then, for one reson or another, Zimmerman chose to break off the contact. Martin, however, being s somewhat high-strung, athletic young man, decided to get even with Zimmerman for being hassled, jumped Zimmerman, got him down, and started beating Zimmerman. At that point Zimmerman, being beaten by this large, powerful football player, legitimately feared suffering death or great bodily harm and legally shot Martin.

It might be just a bit more unfortunate that the un-armed teenager minding his own business whom an armed Zimmerman admittedly followed both by car and on foot isn't here to tell his side.....because, you know, Zimmerman killed him.
