He does have the right to defend himself with deadly force though.
Brockton could use a vigilante,keeps the animals in line.

Of what is this an interpretation? The courts don't get to sort it out without an arrest.

Then I will refer to it as the "legal system".
Give it a chance to work before assuming judge and jury responsibilities.

At least we agree on that, just have a different interpretation of what that means. Police are not judge and jury.

no, but the police gather the evidence and do the investigation. we have ZERO output from their investigation. All we know if they havent arrested Zimmerman. Thats it.

Zimmerman referred to Martin as a spook on the call.

The partial report was released by the police. Doesn't provide much information. We know that Trayvon didn't have a gun or knife or any weapon. We know that the law as written in Florida says that the force must be necessary to "prevent imminent death or great bodily harm." The phone conversations show that Trayvon was followed. Zimmerman admits that he is following him. Combine those details with burden the law places on the person who kills and with the lead investigators concerns about the legitimacy of Zimmerman's story. I make no judgement about whether he should be convicted, but it is crystal clear that his parents are completely justified to call bs on the whole system that let the guy walk. If one of my kids or someone I love is walking around Florida unarmed, gets followed, and ends up shot, the shooter had better darn well have to prove it was necessary to "prevent imminent death or great bodily harm."

Zimmerman's grandfather being a retired judge and mother a court clerk may of had an effect on how this case was handled.
