Ben, I'm doing very little speculation here. I think you and a few others are distorting the few facts we do have to justify your own bias here. Again, I'd encourage you to look at what that says about you.
As one of the participants is dead, we cannot get a full account of the story. So, we have to piece it together and use 'Common sense' to fill in the gaps and determine the credibility of Zimmerman's account. As an FYI, the results of the independent investigation did just that, and determined his account was not credible.
It doesn't stand to reason that Trayvon would have approached Zimmerman...who initiated the encounter is crucial to determining responsibility here. As I said, you cannot pick a fight with someone and when you're losing, pull out a gun and shoot them dead and claim self defense. It's not a racial issue, it's a legal one.
PM me with the link of the post you'd like me to respond to.
