And I'm 6'2" and many times in my life have been asked questions to the effect of, "What are you doing here?" when I'm doing nothing more than walking through an area, without wearing a hoodie and sometimes in broad daylight. I answer the questions and move along. If I'm a stranger pacing around a neighborhood in the dark, while it's raining, then it's not a surprise to me if someone finds me suspicious. Don't think so? PM me your address and some night next week I'll have someone talk on their phone right outside your house at night. I'm sure it won't bother you at all.
Get a different word besides "stalked" because it doesn't quite fit the events. And the rest of what you've written here shows that you're not really interested in facts or what really happened: you just heard the initial word on the case and then jumped to your own conclusions. Some of it doesn't even make sense.
If it turns out that Martin circled around and did attack Zimmerman, then he will go free. If it turns out that Zimmerman somehow ran this kid down and started the fight (which, why would he do that if he had a gun? not to mention, why wouldn't he have done that for any of the other cases he'd been involved in?), then Zimmerman will be punished accordingly. You seem to have it all figured out, though, and are getting upset at people who want to discuss what is actually known so far.

You haven't listened to the call, have you? If Martin chose to run, then he would have made it home and nothing would have happened. While Zimmerman was on the phone, shortly after he started following Martin, he lost him. Now either Martin did circle back around to confront Zimmerman, or he stopped running and decided he was fine where he was, and Zimmerman found him and confronted him. In neither case can you say he chose to run. This is exactly what the initial media reports said, and they got it completely wrong.
