Fair enough, but that still puts the onus on the prosecutor to show something about Zimmerman that a jury would have to decipher.

If I was on the jury I’d have a hard time determining if Zimmerman really wanted to fire, or if he was just scared and fired irrationally (thus manslaughter.) What would the prosecutor have to show me to convince me that this was murder and not manslaughter?
