well that’s just it...there’s alot of speculation going on.
Speculation that Zimmerman is a racist...or not.
Speculation about Martin - who cannot give his own side of the story.
I, like everyone else, have my own bias and I speculate the truth is a muddled mixture of all of the above.
What stands out in my mind is Zimmerman’s role as self-appointed watchdog.
In my own life (and therefore affecting my own bias) - these types can create alot of havoc.
In my experience, they can be meddlesome busybodies, but I don't have experience with any that threw a first punch. Of all the contact that Zimmerman made with the police, how many of those incidents have him confronting the person? Maybe he does follow the advice to be nothing more than eyes and ears, and to maintain distance while waiting for police to arrive.
