How do you know he pulled out a phone?
Was a call made?
If not, that is not a FACT.
He could have easily pulled out his gun instead.

That is plausible. He went for his gun but when questioned he claims he went for his phone. I’m not saying it is what happened but it is a possibility that isn’t far-fetched and given how Zimmerman supposedly was the one screaming like a girl it wouldn’t be surprising if he was so scared of the hooded black man that he went for his weapon.

If it turns out that Zimmerman took out his gun before any altercation than trayvon is completely justified in kicking his ass and Zimmerman should be held accountable for treyvons death. We’ll see what happens though.

What if Zimmerman were indeed going for his phone and Trayvon thought, as this strange man had been chasing him, he was going for a weapon? It would be reasonable, IMO, for him to think that given the circumstances. This is why my position is that whether or not Zimmerman broke any laws he still used very poor judgment. Carrying a gun is a huge responsibility and you shouldn’t look for trouble when you carry one because in the end, right or wrong, lawful or unlawful, it can ruin your life. If he is a good person as his family and friends claim then he can’t feel too good knowing he killed someone when it could have been avoided. And even if he doesn’t face criminal charges, you know he will be in civil court at some point. [/quote]
Hadn’t he seen the end of Gran Torino? [/quote]
HAHA!
Ya, If he pulled out his phone and not a gun, treyvon does not have the right to attack him. A phone does not put someone’s life in imminemt danger, even if they think it is a gun.
