None of which would have been if Zimmerman had not been playing cop.

What if Zimmerman had been an undercover agent or an off duty policeman ? What do cops do to you when you punch them in the face, and start going MMA on them?

Why didn't Martin stay home once he got there? He had lost Zimmerman, why go back and sneak up on him, instead of calling the cops on 911 ?????

Police is the last thing Tray wanted around I’d think. He’d apparently been smoking pot.

You would be surprised to find out how many undercover cops like uniformed back up just to avoid the kind of thing you describe.

But even so, you miss the point entirely.

Cops have badges. They clearly state that they are the police. In the majority of cases that defuses the situation because the person being approached by the cop does not expect to be robbed, mugged or murdered.

It is easier to stay out of trouble than it is to get out of trouble.

Zimmerman and Wendy are prime examples of that. The unfortunate thing about her is that hers was not premeditated but was a situation where she blew off steam because she was excited, agitated and fearful for her dog.

A terrible shame, but still an example of what can happen when you push it with bad people.
