Zimmerman bit off more than he could chew.

"Don't mess around and bite off more than you can chew." My parents used to say that all the time and it had nothing to do with an actual meal. They meant for us not to pick fights we knew we could not win.

In the case of Zimmerman, the gun on his hip made him feel more powerful than he actually was. If he had not had the gun, he would simply have taken an earned ass whipping, gone home and tended to his wounds and his ego. People keep losing sight of the fact that Trayvon was not guilty of doing anything wrong, and I don't care which scenario you choose (Zimmerman chasing and finally running up on him, or Trayvon got tired of being hunted and turned the table), Zimmerman initiated the situation thinking he would be crowned the neighborhood hero again. Well, he got crowned and he did not like the fit. Zimmerman did not decide to fight back with the same amount of aggression he met, he pulled his weapon. And, for the length of time of those screams he pointed it at Trayvon and let him know he was going to die. That young man pleaded for help, not from a fist fight, but rather a gun pointed at him. The reason there was no blood on Trayvon was because it was not there during the struggle. The blood appeared after Zimmerman pulled the trigger and the gun kicked back and hit him in the face. This is obvious because Trayvon was leaning forward and his clothes were not pressed against his body when the shot was fired, hence, the gun was too close to Zimmerman's face when he pulled the trigger.

No, Travon did not stand up and say, "You got me," then fall. His hands clinched at his chest and he fell forward. Zimmerman's scuffling out from under him did not disturb his hands. No, Zimmerman did not spread Trayvon's arms out as he said. Zimmerman simply rolled up on Trayvon and expected the young, black kid to be frightened and submit to his crap. Zimmerman would have created a scenario for the police that would have Trayvon taken into custody, voila, Zimm's the man.

Zimmerman bit off more than he could chew, a child is dead, and Zimmerman is guilty.
