What amazes me is that very few people/pundits, if any, note that Trayvon Martin was ... being completely rational and even reasonable by Florida, um, legal standards, as awful as Florida legal standards are. Hell, he was being stalked by a lunatic ... a lunatic not from the immediate area, and armed with a 9mm gun. If anyone had stand your ground rights, it was him.
Zimmerman really is a piece of work. And it speaks volumes that he was lauded by all the usual wingnut suspects, at least until the arrests really started to pile up. Then they quietly dropped him down the memory hole.
