This reads like something from the Onion.

I say it this way..

If Travon had not left for skittles and a coke this would not have happened.

“The fact is, if Zimmerman had stayed home that day the confrontation would never have occurred,” the report said. “The black eyes, broken nose, and lacerated scalp he suffered would not have happened if he hadn’t ventured out into the streets and exposed himself to risk.”

This is the most ridiculous piece of drivel I've ever heard uttered by a so called law enforcement official. By this logic we are all responsible for criminals praying on us by simply leaving our houses to go about our lawful business. Neighborhood watch programs have been promoted by police departments as a means of reducing crime since I can remember. Any sane evaluation of this case would conclude that good old Travon could have avoided being shot simply by not trying to beat Mr Zimmerman's head into a bloody pulp to begin with.
