Trayvon illegally assaulted Zimmerman. Asking Zimmerman a question was not illegal, sucker punching him to the ground, breaking his nose was. That was assault.
Climbing on top of the prostate Zimmerman and beating his head into the cement went further and put Zimmerman’s life in jeopardy, which then justified the shooting.
Trayvon, once he lost Zimmerman and Zimmerman was going back to hs vehicle, should have left well enough alone.
But he coludn’t, or wouldn’t...so he first punched him, then began beating him...and lost his life. Fatal mistake.
disagree.
I believe trayvon had the legal right to self defense, and zimmerman did likewise.
Trayvon assumed he was being followed by zimmerman so he could of reacted in self defense.
Zimmerman had trayvon attacking him without understanding why, hence he also had self-defense..
