Seventeen year old Trayvon Martin was attacked and shot by 28 year old George Zimmerman a married man, and a father who worked as the neighborhood watch saw Trayvon walking back home from a store. He was minding his own business, carrying no weapons being completely unarmed carrying Skittles, and ice tea with his hoodie up. George started to follow Trayvon, and had called the cops telling them that Trayvon looked suspicious, and he was complaining about how they always seemed to get away. They had asked him if he was following Trayvon he said yes ,and they told him not to do that, but he did anyway.
People ended up calling 911 as they heard sounds from outside one witness saying that they were on the ground wrestling with one another, and another saying they heard a single gun shot after a boy, Trayvon had started to scream out for help. George Zimmerman said he did it in self defense which is legal looking at the law saying if necessary to use deadly force in self defense, and from this alone he ended up getting no charges, no arrest, and walks as a free man today.
When I read this I was outraged! How could something that connects so well together, so many things that made it lead to this answer, and it all pointed to George being at fault 100% there was no way it was self defense! George started it, attacked Trayvon because he was walking home at night with his hoodie up and was carrying skittles and tea, so he went and harassed him when even the police men told him NOT to, and in the end he shot him, why, because Trayvon cried out for help? That doesn't sound like self defense what so ever, he shot him because he wanted Trayvon dead, it makes me sick to my stomach after all the obvious answers about George Zimmerman. He seemed to be racist toward African Americans and he got away with it because of the law which they shouldn't be letting him use to his defense just because he says so! Anyone can lie-- they need more than that to believe him to be innocent which in all honesty I don't think he is! I'm positive there will be tons of follow ups on this story, this isn't over!
