One: Martim most likely committed several robberies in that neighborhood. Two: It was Zimmerman's job to check people, suspicious people, out. Martin was acting suspiciously. Three:Zimmerman didn't "chase" Martin. He was looking around for him and stopped doing that the minute the police said "We don't need you to do that". He said OK and was heading back to his truck when the punk thug jumped him. Four: All Martin had to do was stay home once he got there but he circled back and lay in wait for Zimmerman to prove how tough he was. Five: You are evidently a frickin' idiot, you certainly are stupid and unable to grasp the facts of this case as they actually happened.
One: says who?
Two: No, quite the opposite. As the police rep testified, Zimmerman was specifically told, when the neighborhood watch was set up, that following ‘suspicious’ people is the job of law enforcement, and not his. He failed to follow these simple instructions.
Three: Before he gave up following him, he was following him. This is not a substantive distinction. He stalked a stranger.
Four: All Zimmerman had to do was stay in his truck, like he was instructed to when he signed up for the neighborhood watch. Again, he failed.
Five: Useless whining, ignored.
