    In Florida, if you are in reasonable fear of your life or great bodily harm, you do.

    Crakkker and racist White person are interchangeable in the Black community. Black people call racist White people crakkkers. So to say White racist crakkker would be redundant. Zmans actions of watching and stalking Trayvon is what caused Trayvon to label him as a crakkker which is interchangeable with racist White person in most African-American communities. It's the same phenomena that happens when Blacks go into department stores and are followed by White employees of said store. The Black person may instantly label that White person as racist thereby a crakkker simply because we perceive that the ONLY reason we're being followed by them is because we're Black.

    Losing a fist fight does not give you the right to dream up murder. We are talking reasonable fear. Guy on a phone, with one hand, talking to someone is not reasonably threatening you with murder. If you get into a fight with that person and lose, you have no right to kill him. Zimmerman obviously took some steps towards him at some point. He didn't think the guy was trying to murder him on that police call. Why would it change if they got into a fight when martins personal space was invaded? I waited to pass judgment on this guy, I tend to side with defendants and take a critical view of government, and media based justice. But if we become a society where everyone is afraid to take a licking without retaliating with deadly force then we will always have terrible violence issues. It is not reasonable to assume every fist fight you are a mutual combatant in will lead to murder. This video explains it best:
