I have no doubt the next rhetoric will be that Zimmerman "deserved it", "had it coming".....

The prosecution will also go after the fact that Zimmerman did not listen to the 911 operator telling him not to follow Trayvon. While I agree that Zimmerman's decision to disobey the operator wasn't a good one, I don't think that should make the difference between self-defense and murder..

Are you sure of your interpretation of what happened? From what I heard claimed and the maps and time line, I came to a different conclusion. Zimmerman followed Martin for only a very short time and distance after the operator told him to stop. He lost track and sight of Martin when Martin turned right down the path between the buildings. Zimmerman then continued straight (not right) out to the street to get an address # for the police. Zimmerman then met up with Martin upon returning from the street to his car. From the map and time line, Martin would have HAD to return back up the path he had fled on originally to meet up with Zimmerman.
My guess is he said something to Zimmerman when perhaps at most 40 yards down the path from Zimmerman. Zimmerman then turned left down the path at most 20 yards.... meeting up with Martin coming up the path the other way. The confrontation began there. So tell me......who confronted who????

P.S. .....spoke to my sister the other day regarding Koreans and their dogs.......interested?
