    Yes, if things had been different, then different things might have happened. What if Trayvon walked by 15 minutes earlier, then none of this would have happened. What is Zimmerman got hungry and stopped at Wendy's? Would've changed everything.

    Sure, if he stayed in the car and didnt profile then it wouldn't of happened, but how could he be acting in self defence if he was follwing him? I don't understand that, and we don't know for sure if Trayvon attacked him. If he would have fled( which he tried to) he might have a greater chance of being alive today.

    I agree, Zimmerman created this problem.

    Honestly, Trayvon probably attacked GZ in self-defense. If GZ would've followed cops orders a teen would not be dead.

    He didn't profile Martin (I always look at this case in a race-less way; that is, I don't take race into consideration).

    But if he'd stayed in his car, or gone to meet the cops at the mailbox like he was supposed to, this wouldn't have happened.

    Because , in Florida and elsewhere STAND YOUR GROUND laws legally allows a person NOT to have to flee the scene but can STAND THEIR GROUND.Sadly and unlike Zimmerman, Martin did not have a concealed NRA approved death weapon to blow Zimmerman away for threatening him by stalking him

    It was Zimmerman's community. Martin was a visitor. Should I have to give over to a visitor before walking in my own community?

    If is always an awful big word. Just like IF our aircraft carriers had not at sea when the Japanese attacked we might have lost the war.

    I will so stipulate as long as you stipulate that Treyvon staying out of that neighborhood would also have avoided the tragedy.

    You can change any of the facts you want, none of that will erase the incident. The jury has spoken, leave it be.

    Except Zimmerman didn't profile Martin.

    Martin was the one looking at Zimmerman's car then looking inside houses to probably rob them.

    Martin than broke Zimmerman's nose and proceeded to bang his head on the pavement.
