I'm not saying Trayvon was an angel but George could have handled the whole situation VERY differently and nobody would be dead. He could have stood back as suggested, he could have identified himself...something. He was hoping to bust somebody in the act and ended up killing the kid.
The exasperation in Z's voice when he says 'they always get away' explains why he continued to follow and keep an eye on T.
As a homeowner, I'd be ecstatic that the guy we appointed as 'neighborhood watch' decided to make sure this guy wasn't going to commit any crimes on his watch.
Everyone's waiting for the evidence to 'come out' but there have been excerpts from eyewitness testimony already. One gal for sure saw T on top of Z 'pummeling him'.
For everybody saying 'T' had every right to be where he was, haven't we covered this? I thought he was taking a short-cut through a gated community, which to me, if I didn't live there, would seem 'out of bounds' to me (but I'm not a criminal). If this is not correct, someone please let me know.
Tensions were high in that neighborhood. It was the perfect storm coming together.
