Martin’s supporters refuse to acknowledge that he began the physical confrontation by attacking Zimmerman. If they do admit it, they then rush on to state that Z’s wounds were minimal and not worthy of even being concerned about.

Here’s a bottom line for you: Assuming Martin thought he was being stalked and was fearing for his life and for whatever reason didn’t try to run to his father’s girlfriend’s house — why didn’t he call 911 instead of Rachael Jenteel?

There's actually a possible good answer for that (explanation, not an excuse): because he'd been conditioned by his "community" not to trust "The Man's" institutions, like 9-11/the police.

Of course it's also possible that, having two of the three components* of Purple Drank in his possession he didn't feel it was a good idea to call the cops ...

(* on that note, I have to wonder if, years from now, someone in that neighborhood near where Zimmerman defended himself will be doing some landscape remodeling and will discover an unopened bottle of Robitussin DM in a plastic 7-11 bag)
