I wish we could have seen the word bubble over his head.

They played that 911 call over and over again. Zimmerman was able to testify without actually testifying and being cross-examined.

The 911 call is entirely Zimmerman's story. It made it seem as if Trayvon was acting suspicious and Zim wanted to protect his neighborhood. And the only thing the prosecution did was keep replaying it!

This is the type of person I refer to when I say, have no common sense. Z started this thing, he followed Trayvon even when told not to....... Z had a gun and was prepared to use it...... and though told not to by the 911 operator, continued to follow, most likely at that point, a frightened kid who was just walking home from the store with his Skittles and Iced T........Z got out of his truck and accosted Trayvon and caused a confrontation with Trayvon........I doubt Z was approaching him to have a conversation with Trayvon, but at that point, I'm sure that Trayvon was frightened enough and his adrenalin was flowing in fear...........I'm sure that Z's adrenalin was flowing too, but for different reasons then just fear.......Z was in self righteous, hunting down the thug mode, and we know that from his comment about how "they" always get away.........so a situation now exits that Z and Z alone caused to occur and Trayvon is in flight or fight mode.........Z gets in Trayvons face, and maybe even places hands on Trayvon and the altercation begins that Z started.......what ever is happening in the fight that now ensues and has been initiated by Z........Z feels that the kid is getting the best of him...........Zpulls out his equalizer.........his protector............his only hope for survival in a bad, bad world..........and since all else was failing..........Z shoots Trayvon in the chest...........killing the young man. This is all common sense, so based on just that, Z is guilty of some crime........common sense.......Z just followed this young man and even when told not to follow, continued his stalking/hunting of Trayvon.........this one was not going to get away if Z could help it........by continuing to follow Trayvon, Z caused a fear reaction in Trayvon............which is perfectly normal if someone is being followed by an unknown person........So, if at the point of the 911 call, had Z just simply done what the 911 operator had told him to do.........this tragic death would not have occurred. Z and Z's actions on that evening, are the only causes of the death of Trayvon........A person walking down the street and being black..........should not have to fear being followed by a potentially armed racist, and being gunned down.........but because not a single one of those 6 jurors had the common sense to stand their ground..........by standing by their first decision after deliberations began............now, young black men and boys in Florida, must have this fear............Trayvon only needed one juror with common sense in order to get justice, and sadly, there wasn't one person with common sense on that jury. I'm so sorry Trayvon that racism contributed to your death and the lack of common sense in 6 jurors, stopped your family and friends from seeing justice done.
