I'd likely ask what he was doing there given the circumstances of the recent crime in the community. We do know that Zimmerman was physically injured and those injuries match his account of the confrontation. We do not know what was on their minds during the altercation. Was Trayvon injured in any way other than the GSW? Perhap, Zimmerman refrained from fighting back against an aggressive Trayvon until there was no choice but to use deadly force. The point is that no one knows.

The fact remains that Zimmerman discharged a gun killing an unarmed kid and the Stand Your Ground law seems to have precluded an appropriate/timely investigation of the incident (and is the reason that no one knows).
