He was supposed to, being part of the Neighborhood Watch. He was only observing Martin.



Martin confronted Zimmerman aggressively and assaulted him with obvious intent to harm or kill.
Wrong. Local law enforcement (the cops who were, by the way, on the way to the scene) advised him that they didn't need him following Martin on foot. And I'm willing to bet that there is not a legitimate Neighborhood Watch program in the entire country that okays their members to patrol their neighborhoods on foot while armed.

No he was a wanna be thug. He came to the end that was likely to happen anyway.

I just debate the idea that there was any evidence at all that Martin initiated the confrontation, or that Zimmerman was the good guy.

Following someone at night isn't aggressive behavior? So you would have no issue with a stranger following your wife or daughter at night? None?

He wasn't on the watch that night, and even if he was, if memory serves, one of the rules was not to carry while acting as neighborhood watch. I may be wrong, but I doubt it.

How do you know that Martin confronted Zimmerman? What is your proof? The only evidence is that at some point Martin was getting the better of Zimmerman.

I wouldn't want Martin or Zimmerman for neighbors. I do know this. Honest people will admit that having a stranger follow them at night feels threatening and feel that it is unacceptable behavior.
Both are trash and defending either of them would not be the hill I would want to die on.

Hell, George Zimmerman is a hill I wouldn't want to even break a sweat on.
