is followed by a car being driven slowly by an unknown man for several minutes. The man, who is carrying a gun, stops the car and begins to deliberately approach the kid.

Based on his his recorded conversation with Sanford Police Department ("This guy looks like he is up to no good or he is on drugs or something....these assholes, they always get away.&quot it's reasonable to assume that he approached the kid with an air of menace and hostility. At the very least, this was not an ordinary, friendly encounter on the street.

The kid tried to get away from the man, but the man, convinced the kid was a criminal (he wasn't) chased him down. The man caught up with the kid, there was a struggle, and the kid was shot in the chest and killed.

You're okay with that. I hope you and your kind are never anywhere near my kids.

(on edit : I read bravenak's complete transcript of Zimmerman's phone call to the police. It's worse than even I thought. Trayvon RAN to get away from Zimmerman. Zimmerman left his car and ran the boy down. Fuck him. Fucking vigilante murderer. I hope he gets life in prison.)
