Sure, if you see someone break into a house, or someone jacking up a car and taking the tires, you should call the police. Trouble is, Trayvon wasn't doing anything suspicious. Porky says he was looking into houses, but it's already been proven that there are no windows on the lower levels of these houses in the front. What, was he looking at blank walls? Not to mention Porky is a tremendous liar and just wants to save his skin.
I don't think you have to see someone breaking the law to call police. Sometimes if something or someone doesn't look right, you have to trust your gut feeling.
If that were the case I would have to disagree with god.
GZ gave that answer to Hannity when asked if he would do anything different if he could do it again. Trying to think quickly, and not incriminate himself before the trial by admitting that he now wishes he stayed in the car and trying not sound insensitive, he gave the God answer. Now he probably wishes he could take that back too.
On the contrary, I believe if had said, 'yeah, gosh, I never intended for something like this to happen; I feel really bad about having to defend myself; blah, blah, blah, he would have been perceived as a more sympathetic defendant, and it would not have endangered his self-defense claim one iota.

He truly believes what he said.
And what does that make him guilty of? Besides being a jackass?
Indeed firearm ownership is not for everyone. In the classes that I teach, one of the fist things I ask people to do is to close their eyes and imagine shooting someone in a self defense shooting. Then I ask if they believe they could actually follow through and shoot. If they say no, I suggest that a concealed carry license may not be for them. I'll be glad to train them in firearm safety, but firearm self defense classes might not be for them.
Key is George was on the offensive,....from the time he left his vehicle with a loaded weapon to follow this "unknown" teen.
Since the whole case revolves around whether George was justified in using deadly force too bad the jurors may not be privy to the real George:

A person who had to defend himself would say he had no choice if he wanted to live. He should have left God out of it. Actually he shouldn't have done the interview at all.
Like it or not, there are people who think Gid plays a role in everything. Sure, sometimes they do so too much but even that doesn't rationalize your thought process on this

It goes to intent.
