@oralloy,
Here's an alternative version:
- Zimmerman said he wouldn't follow
- Zimmerman, frustrated that they always get away with it, changed his mind and followed
- Trayvon Martin saw a creepy white guy stalking him, hid, or tried to escape, but Zimmerman eventually managed to find him / cut him off
- Zimmerman tackled Martin
- Martin fought off Zimmermans attack
- Zimmerman, losing the fight he initiated, and not willing to let Martin get away, pulled his gun and shot him
This is the problem with taking one persons word for what happened during a period of time that is essentially, known by only one person - the killer.
