Why not? Assuming, and I realize this is a big assumption but seems closer to the truth than anything else I have heard, if Zimmerman was walking back to his car like he said and Martin came after him, how can you not blame Martin?
It doesn't matter that Zimmerman was legally following Martin or even what he said once they confronted one another, the second Zimmerman turns his back to head to his car, he's no longer an attacker or danger to Martin. If Martin decided he wanted to teach a lesson to this crazy ass cracker, that's not only entirely his fault but a hate crime.
