And it was over a matter of disrespect, you say.
Was Martin not worthy of the respect of being allowed to return home unmolested in a public area?
Zimmerman got out of his truck and pursued Martin, did he not? Zimmerman call the police to have them confront Martin in the first place, did he not? Zimmerman had no right to chase around someone that wasn't even on his property and was not committing a crime. He was an angry and suspicious vigilante who took an innocent person's life who was in the act of defending himself.
I live in Michigan too, buddy, and I've lived here my entire life without ever having to carry a weapon in public.
The world where you live in, where you feel that you have to fear being confronted by disrespected black teenagers, I don't know that world... And I'm from the East Side of DETROIT!
You can have your vigilante world. I don't want it.
