You're still speculating about what you think happened. Speculation isn't evidence

You still don't know if he was actually running. You can say he was, but there's no evidence to suggest he was running other than a cell phone recording muffled by wind, on a night after a rainstorm.

I've walked up the stairs before and been out of breath enough to have trouble focusing on what people are telling me, as well as having to take a breath to pronounce my last name, which is longer than Zimmerman's. Being winded from walking quickly isn't unreasonable for someone who was in the shape Zimmerman was in.

There was suspicion that there was a guy in a hooded sweatshirt going around and breaking into people's homes. Skin color wasn't a factor at that point in time.

Speculation, you have no evidence that Zimmerman assumed Trayvon was the suspect because he was black, he wasn't even sure if he was black on the 9/11 call to the dispatcher.

"In an interview with FBI agents in March, investigator Chris Serino told authorities he "believed that Zimmerman's actions were not based on Martin's skin color, rather based on his attire, the total circumstances of the encounter and the previous burglary suspects in the community," according to an FBI report."
The racist motivation you've been trying to pin on Zimmerman doesn't hold any water beyond the point of speculation.

Are you really just making stuff up now?
Picture of Zimmerman when he was walking the police through his incident:

I'm not seeing this big burly dude you keep speculating about.
Also, here's a picture at Trayvon the night of the shooting-

There's not much difference, but Trayvon definitely has a height advantage, and obviously an athletic advantage, being a varsity football player, which you keep choosing to ignore for some reason.

Police dispatchers are civilian phone operators and have no legal or judicial authority.

It's not a huge gap at
all actually. The average length of an adult human arm from
elbow to finger tip is about 16 inches. My elbow to finger tip measurement is actually about 18 inches. So basically, hold your arm down at your side, bend it up at the elbow so your forearm is at a 90 degree angle to your body, and keep your hand flat and level. That's approximately 16-18", depending on the size of your arm.

You just said he was, and he was trying to until someone got his attention.

Unless the teenage six foot plus varsity football playing "boy" (the emotionally charged adjectives are getting a little stale) yelled at him from behind and Zimmerman stopped to look.

Except that they can be tried as adults, and the only reason people are intent on treating this six foot plus tall varsity football player as if he were a child is because it makes Zimmerman look like a baby killer and satisfies the racists wanting to throw him in prison.

Sorry, you don't get to dissmiss the fact that Trayvon was AGAIN, a
six foot tall varsity football player. Varsity is serious big time stuff, Varsity gets scouted by collegiate athletic teams. This is speculation, but another year and he might have been in the NCAA. You can't downplay his athleticism, it's a major component of the trial and it doesn't just go away because you want it to.

So you're not a psychic, you're not a mental health professional, but we're supposed to believe you when you say Zimmerman is lying?

He's being charged with second degree murder because the DA wanted the publicity from putting someone away to appease the mob.

Except that legally carrying a legal firearm concealed cannot legally in any way shape or form give evidence to malicious intent. Concealed carrying is legally a defensive posture, not offensive, regardless of speculation

He was told they didn't need him to follow the suspect, who was an athletic six foot plus tall varsity football player. You can say child all you want, it's not going to change that fact.

Prior convictions, none of which were felonies, and you haven't explained how it actually adds up to Second Degree murder.

Except he didn't confront Trayvon, there's no evidence to suggest he confronted Trayvon beyond your own speculation, Trayvon had no defensive wounds to suggest that he was confronted physically or otherwise, and you even admitted that Trayvon engaged Zimmerman while Zimmerman was walking back to his car. The evidence in Zimmerman's story AND the police report both support the face that Trayvon confronted and then physically assaulted Zimmerman as Zimmerman was returning to his vehicle.

This is the alleged route Trayvon walked on.
It is a known shortcut that usually young kids take to get to the convenience store to the housing areas.

Zimmerman tried to walk away. Trayvon confronted him after he started to leave, and attacked him. So, no, he didn't provoke the fight.

My "nonsense" facts are backed up by police and FBI reports. I'm not the one who's been gunning for this dude for multiple posts with nothing but conspiracy theories and speculation. But if you're not going to address the facts of the situation, than you really don't have anything to argue about anymore.

Except that Trayvon didn't "call him over", he called to him and walked up, confronted Zimmerman and than physically assaulted him.
If all you're going to do is completely ignore the FBI and police reports, the ballistic evidence, and the medical reports from both Trayvon and Zimmerman to throw around wild speculative theories about a large burly man who's actually fairly tiny hunting down a poor innocent six foot plus tall baby child varsity football player, then you need to stop.
