It's interesting how some people only see things as being either "good" or "so liberal its disgusting".

And it also adds weight to the fact that, by Florida state law, he had every right to put a bullet in his attacker...because he had a CCL.
Except Martin almost certainly wasn't the attacker. The only reason anyone thinks Martin (a kid with no history of violence on his way home from the store, talking to his girlfriend on the way) was the attacker here is because of scary black person stereotypes. It is vastly more probable that Zimmerman, a guy who does have a violent history, who had been fired from a security job for being too aggressive, who actively chased down Martin, made things turn physical.

To assume that Zimmerman did indeed get lost in his own three-street neighborhood, and Martin attacked him, tried to take his gun, and then said "You got me!" as Zimmerman shot him, well, it isn't because of logic that you believe that's anything like the truth.
