Z is calling Tray the ugliest names on a recorded 911 call. What if he called this guy minding his own business an ugly name? If you were provoked with the rudest ethnic slur, you might hit the guy. That could have started the whole interaction.
I hate to be on trayvon’s side here but that recording changes things. This is a hate crime now.
If someone called my son that, he could swing a punch if he wanted. Now, smash his brain on the sidewalk, that’s a bit much. But I think slinging ethnic crudeness IS AN ATTACK.

your hypothetical is pointless since it no way describes what is claimed to have happened that night.
----------------- Hypothetical Scenario or is that what you WANT people to think REALLY happened. You want people to "Think" that is what really happened BUT you don't have the slightest clue.
