re: #133 Targetpractice

If he truly felt threatened so much, why not just continue home after Zimmerman stopped following him? Why did he feel the need to confront? And why, after he had Zimmerman on the ground, broken nose and bloody head, continue to beat Zimmerman black and blue after an onlooker had called on him to stop?

Does TM have no right to stand his ground?

Maybe he responded in such a way because he saw a stranger following him at night for no reason and was justifiably concerned about his own safety. And maybe he was afraid the pursuer had a gun, or even saw that gun.

I simply don’t understand the fervent defenses of Zim. Rational, sane, law abiding people don’t follow people and pursue them with firearms when they haven’t even seen the person commit a crime. Real simple: if Zim stays in car, as any responsible person would have done, none of this happens.
