So you admit he stalked a teenager without identifying himself as part of the community watch even though he had a perfect opportunity to do so on several occasions...something that could have defused the entire fear thing than both had going for each other.

That's the point.... The dispatch timeline proves that TM had time to get home. Why didn't he go home if he feared for his life?

Are you attempting to insinuate something?

Sorry that doesn't play into your narrative.
So if given more time Martin would have continued to develop into what he would have become eventually and Zimmerman could have been the guy getting shot? Martin ONLY had national sympathy because of his youth...that's it...if he were a few years older there would not have been such an uproar...and if he was a few years older he may have been carrying a gun.


If it is true that Martin considered buying a gun...then it seems that he go what he deserved early.

Is this illegal ?

Don't believe stalked is the right word. He may have followed or seeked TM.

The police 911 ask if he was following.

My point is that he had successfully evaded GZ. He had more than enough time to get home. He was way ahead.....

"Mark O'Mara, requested information about Trayvon's grades and records from Dr. Michael M. Krop High-School, and state prosecutors released George's Zimmerman's transcripts from Seminole State Community College during pre-trial motions.

Trayvon was an average student... not on academic probation, but not charging his way towards the National Honor Society either. His in classroom behavior was by all accounts non-remarkable."

What about Georgie's grades at Seminole State Community College?

Spoiler
Zimmerman got D's in Introduction to Criminal Justice and Juvenile Delinquency, and a C in a course called Evil Minds -Violent Predators. He failed algebra and astronomy and was placed on academic probation in 2011.

At one point, his grade-point average dropped to a .5. His A's in English, criminal litigation and a Marriage and Family class boosted his overall G.P.A. to 2.3.

In late 2011, he was declined an associate's degree because he had failed a class and did not have the credits to graduate.

If you had a "creepy ass" person following you first in a car and then on foot, I'm sure you would lead him right to your doorstep, wouldn't you. However, Logic 101 classes say that's the last thing you should or would do.

I've already illustrated how the extreme bias for prosecution are using both BAD grades AND good grades to convict Zimmerman.

There is NOTHING that will absolve the dude in the eyes of some
