Martin had already been suspended from school, he might have panicked thinking he would be in even more trouble if the police were called and thought he could fight his way out of what was becoming a bad situation.

If you have a brain you can figure it out.
In the end, if Zimmerman tries to use this defense in a trial, or just gets a pass, and is never indicted, there is going to be a lot of interest in this law. And the injustice that it creates.
You are assuming it is an unjust law because you believe Zimmerman to be guilty. The fact is, he hasn't been charged... yet alone convicted.

The aggressor, George was told to NOT pursue the kid. George also stated that the kid ran away. At that time he should have waited for police to arrive, and NOT CONFRONT, nor INSTIGATE a CONFRONTATION.
No where on that audio is any evidence of the kid attacking, or being an aggressor to George.
It's bullshit, to try to flip the script on Trayvon.
Regardless, The guy with the gun was not covered by "Stand your ground", the guy who got SHOT was! Zimmerman was stalking Trayvon. It was Trayvon who, aware he was being followed by a man without a badge or uniform, felt threatened and therefore was allowed to stand his ground. But Zimmerman, who associated himself with law enforcement, and having been ordered by the police to NOT follow Trayvon, was the aggressor. The real truth behind this tragedy is that if Trayvon had been armed, and Zimmerman had known there was a good chance Trayvon was armed, Zimmerman would have acted more cautiously and perhaps obeyed the order from the police to cease following Martin.
This is going to turn into another gun grab attempt, and another try to infringe on the 2nd Amendment, not to mention the inciting of more racial tension to further divide the populace.
In hindsight my advice to kids, or anyone being followed like this kid was would be to call the police on your cell phone, take pics, and activate an audio recording.
For those responsible enough who can obtain a CC permit, do so and arm yourself for SELF DEFENSE..NOT to go out and look for trouble by playing wannabe cop.
He was told not to do it and he stopped DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS?The aggressor, George was told to NOT pursue the kid.George also stated that the kid ran away. At that time he should have waited for police to arrive, and NOT CONFRONT, nor INSTIGATE a CONFRONTATION.
Use some common sense. He's that Trayvons that close to where he is staying and doesn't go there? Why didn't he do that?No where on that audio is any evidence of the kid attacking, or being an aggressor to George.

Eyewitness statementsNo where on that audio is any evidence of the kid attacking, or being an aggressor to George.
Wait a minute you just said it was reported Trayvon ran? If that were true stand your ground no longer applies with trayvon, he left the area he felt threaten in.

I don't think Trayvon felt threaten because he never called the police or his father, he called his girlfriend in another city.

You are assuming it is an unjust law because you believe Zimmerman to be guilty. The fact is, he hasn't been charged... yet alone convicted.
This is what I asked on the other thread ... does the law's protection move from one person to the next and back again, depending on who happens to have the upper hand at any given point in time?
I fear you're going to do me severe bodily harm or worse ... so I use force which causes you to fear I'm going to do you severe harm or worse ... so you use force which causes me to believe you're going to do me severe harm or worse ...
That's what's so crazy about this IMO.
The Judge is QUOTED as saying it was RAZOR-CLOSE; so from SYG to 2nd degree murder is a big leap.........................
Not really sure what youre getting at here
But the judges ruling in the Seay case would be reasonable and appropriate if he found the witness statement that the fight was over and the defendant used deadly force subsequent to that reasonable.
In the Zimmerman/Martin case, no similar evidence exists as sworn testimony, SYG compelled the Sanford police to release Zimmerman uncharged.
The decision is on appeal. My point was that in one case law enforcement decided, in the other it was brought before the Court.

Perhaps Trayvon did attack Zimmerman. What do we know for sure?
Facts from the 911 tapes.
Zimmerman admitted he was following Trayvon, and further knew that Trayvon had noticed him as he followed.
According to phone records,
Trayvon was on the phone with his girlfriend just minutes before he was shot.
It can also be speculated that if Trayvon attacked Zimmerman he did so because he felt threatened and felt he had to defend himself. Zimmerman followed, stalked and engaged Trayvon, that much is clear.
To say that Zimmermans actions were justifiable, is to say that it is legal in Florida to follow/stalk someone you don't like, possibly draw them into a confrontation and kill them.
Just as you speculate as being possible, that Trayvon was intending to attack Zimmerman, it's just as possible Trayvon thought the same of Zimmerman.
We wont know anything for sure until a proper investigation is done, and witnesses possibly polygraphed, for now, based on what has been said, Zimmerman looks to be in the wrong.
