when accosted by a stranger who was following himand may have beena threat, why is it beyond belief that Mr Martin may have been attempting to defend himself? it seems so easy for many to justify the killing of Mr Martin as some kind of 'self defense'by Mr Zimmerman but not that Mr Martin may have been fighting off an attack. Mr Zimmerman had his car to stay in if he really felt threatened, Mr Martin had nowhere to hide from his attacker.
TM could have run, easily and gotten away from GZ. As we keep hearing, GZ is a pretty husky guy and TM seems to have been in peak condition. I doubt GZ felt threatened before the fight, so that wouldn't have been a reason for him to stay put in his vehicle. According to him he was jumped by TM and his injuries as noted in the police report do seem to corroborate that imo.
