I never said any of that. I just think the police did a sloppy job.
After investigating for a few days, the police recommended charging Zimmerman, based on the evidence. Their reports which are online and I have linked to several times show that Serino first recommended charging Zimmerman with 2nd degree murder, and then revised that to manslaughter. I don't know who decided not to charge Zimmerman despite those reports from the investigator.
OK, my bad. I guess I was confusing you with many of the others that were attacking the "racist police" of Sanford for not arresting Zimmerman in those first few days after the shooting. My apologies.
If I were actually scared that the big, bad man following me was an honest threat to me, heck yes! Get home, secure the door and call for help. Pretty stupid not to. I ran plenty of times as a young kid when we were being chased off by homeowners for things like cutting through their back yards or appropriating some fruit off their apple trees. Never once occurred to me to turn around, assault them and pummel them in the face while they were screaming for help. But hey, that's just me.
Thanks for your honesty. I think you're in the minority. Most men I know won't run from another man.
And your story about your neighbor is too silly to address.

Actually I did say that if the roles had been reversed and a black teenager had just shot an unarmed white man, I do think the police would have arrested him on the spot.
