Zimmerman called the police and appeared to handle the situation pretty well, until he basically got attacked by the teen. The teen committed the crime, not the 'weekend warrior'.

I would prefer to live in a country where the citizens can defend themselves.

And by the way, you may want to read up on the case because based on your post you know nothing about it.
The only problem you have with your posts is that you blanket believe that Trayvon was the instigator. No one knows who was the instigator except Zimmerman. Trayvon jumping on Zimmerman fits the evidence, but so does Zimmerman attacking Trayvon and then getting his ass handed to him. You seem to think that the first scenario is indisputable. Like I said there wasn't enough evidence to convict, but Zimmerman bears some responsibility for the death of a 17 yr old kid no matter who started the fight.
