Sounds like the Zimmerman case..... exactly! The person (persons) who initiated the attack get more than they had anticipated. Trayvon and those two women at McDonalds knew that most people would cower in the face of an attack. And in both cases, they were wrong. Trayvon is dead because he thought that he could attack and overpower Zimmerman. And when it came to a straight hand to hand combat, he was right. But George had a gun. He had a gun that he obtained and carried legally. He got the gun at the recommendation of the police so that he could protect himself and his family specifically from an aggressive dog. Zimmerman was overweight and obviously a less skilled fighter than Martin. Not only was he likely disoriented from being popped in the nose by Martin, he was probably out of breath from over exertion. With his mouth and nose covered after being beaten about the face, it is very easy to see that he could go into a mode where he believed his life was truly in jeopardy. Those two women attacked the McDonalds worker. His past arrest record doesn't mean anything. One of the women struck him first. And apparently she spit on him as well. He struck back. And when they both pursued him behind the counter, it was two against one. As was pointed out, some women are tougher than men. So now he had two thuggish women coming after him. He has a legitimate reason to fear for his life. It is completely understandable that he chose to defend himself. That guy is the fast food version of George Zimmerman. And those two women are the pathetic parallels to Trayvon Martin.
