Being followed doesn’t give a person the right to attack someone, TM had no idea GZ had a gun. He only realized this when he had him on the ground and tried to take the gun from GZ, at which point TM was “Zimmered”
RE: Being followed doesn’t give a person the right to attack someone,
Well, that’s precisely the point of division. Blacks claim that it was GZ who started the altercation. Most of us believe GZ when he said Trayvon started the fight.
We don’t have a tape of who started the incident. So we do not really know with absolute certainty.
To Blacks, they WILL NOT believe GZ.
But without a tape of the incident, there really is reasonable doubt. Hence, the jury decided rightly based on the law.
