I notice you use Zimmerman's last name and Martin's first name, similar to the prosecution who tried to portray Martin as a child. Interesting.
Usually people who make such comments believe that Martin had every right to be where he was, when he was, and so didn't deserve to die. I'll agree with you on that one.
However, why is it that the same people never acknowledge that Zimmerman also had every right to be where he was, when he was, and didn't deserve to be attacked? After all, Zimmerman was a resident of the same complex - Martin was a temporary resident, but still a resident. But Zimmerman also was a neighborhood watchman for the complex, a position that carried with it a responsibility to look out for strangers in the area, because of the recent high incidence of crime in the complex. As such, didn't Zimmerman have the right to follow Martin if he didn't know him and didn't know his purpose there? Didn't Zimmerman, by virtue of being the neighborhood watchman, have the right, if not the authority, to try to find out who Martin was and what he was up to?
Clearly, the end result was tragic, but why is it that Zimmerman's right to be there, doing what he was doing, isn't even acknowledged let alone credited?
