Read Replies (1) | Respond to First of all, I'm 99% sure Zim identified him to the 911 operator as a black guy..... He was asked by the 911 operator to identify the suspicious character by race, up to that point there is no indication Zim was paying attention to race. Even if he had been, which you don't know, that just means he was doing his job of observing and noticing what he could. In any event we know he was not a racist. Now, where did At what point did anyone say he didn't have any description? If he noticed the suspicious character was black should he have abandoned his role as watchman? Being suspicious is one thing, Yes, it was doing his job. killing that person without good reason is quite another... Trayvon was being chased and followed by a stranger with no idea who he was.....Z did not try to identify himself, the truck had no marking, Zim had nothing that would mark him as Neighborhood Watch...... Neighborhood watch is not supposed to approach suspicious characters or involve themselves beyond observing and reporting suspicous conduct. According to Jeantel the word 'cracka' is used to describe someone acting in the role of a cop, who is not a cop, like a watchman. Which would indicate Trayvon knew exactly what was going on. ......he wasn't supposed to be carrying a gun, Not true. You don't get to make that rule, and you have not produced any evidence that he was violating the watch rules by carrying a gun. and he defied orders not to follow....... So a teenager being followed in the dark by a stranger is no reason to be afraid.....??
