Stalking is wrong period

And, frankly, this is why I give Martin more benefit of the doubt.

Zimmerman seems to have assumed Trayvon Martin could have Only been in that place for nefarious purposes (in reality, his father’s fiancée lived there.) Given that Martin was unarmed, had no criminal record, is not known to have committed any violent crimes, and showed no sign of any plans to commit crimes of any sort that day, this was most likely a faulty assumption. One he escalated unnecessarily to the point of killing him.

Meanwhile, from Trayvon’s perspective, we have this strange intimidating white* man who seems to be stalking him for no good reason and went out of his way to confront him. It’s not hard to imagine that Trayvon might have been in the right in this situation. At least his paranoia was somewhat justified.





Can’t say I could prove my hypothesis in a court of law, and it makes sense that Zimmerman got off, since we only had his word for what happened, and the lawyers made it just plausible enough to get him a not guilty verdict.

*Yes, I am well aware that Zimmerman's mother was Peruvian, which makes him Hispanic. That said, there are parts in his interrogation where he explicitly identifies as white. I think that, for him, the two identities aren't quite as mutually exclusive as most people would think.

I notice you flatly ignore that Martin escalated this event to a physical altercation. (As indicated by physical evidence). I guess you have to, to be able to stick to the "he's an angel" theory - rather than he was a hot-headed punk who started swinging......
