That was my answer. I would NOT have made the maneuvers Z did. Simple.
The question was two-fold and had nothing to do with what you would do.
First, regardless of whether Zimmerman shouldn't have been there in the first place, do you condone Zimmerman shooting if Martin did indeed attack him and was beating him like he had no intent on stopping and Zimmerman truly believed he would be killed? It's yes or no, don't pontificate.
Second, if it was your son and he fucked up and did exactly what Zimmerman did, is your verdict exactly the same? Do you now believe his story and are you glad he chose to shoot and is still alive to face the law?
You can go back to my earlier post to see the questions in more detail, but that's the gist of it.
