The heat of the moment? Was he afraid he would get away? |
Let's see...Zimmerman was safe in his car, followed Martin for a while while driving his car, then decided to get
out of his car with a gun in his pocket to chase Martin
on foot, despite being told that the police were on the way and that he did not need to get out of his car, all the while suspecting Martin to be a burglar, stated that he thought that there was "something wrong" with Martin and that Martin was "on drugs," yet persisted in following Martin, ended up in a physical confrontation which he blames on the person he had been following in the dark with a gun, got his ass kicked, and "won" the altercation by killing Martin, whereas all he ever had to do was sit in his car and wait for the police.
Martin had done nothing but walk on the sidewalk. He had committed no crime, no matter what Zimmerman's imaginings were.
