YOU listen to the 911 call Zimmermann made to the police at the link YOU provided. At the point when Zimmerman tells the police that Trayvon is "Staring at me. Now coming to check me out" Zimmerman is INSIDE HIS PARKED TRUCK! It is not surprising indeed, most people would be suspicious about someone first staring at them and then coming to check them out when they are INSIDE A PARKED VEHICLE -- especially at night when it's raining. Zimmerman does indeed later say, "Shit, he's running" (so, obviously Martin was scared enough of Zimmerman that his first choice was to run away) just before he admits to following Martin and the 911 dispatcher says "We don't need you to do that" and he says "Okay" just before Martin turns South (at the "T") and runs out of Zimmerman's sight. Zimmerman then continues walking EAST, past the "T", and eventually gets to the end of the walkway, at which point he calls the police and tells them he's on his way back to his truck and he'll meet the police there. However, when he gets back to the "T" Martin comes out of the dark and confronts him.
Going EAST from the "T", it's almost as far to the end of the walkway as it is going South from the "T" to where Martin was living. There are only two possible ways that Martin could have met Zimmerman at the "T": 1) As soon as he turned South at the "T" and lost Zimmerman, Martin hid and waited for Zimmerman to come back, and; 2) After turning South at the "T" and running almost all the way home (400 feet +/-), he doubled-back intent on confronting Zimmerman.
Bottom line remains: Martin created the situation.
It almost looks like you're claiming that a 158" kid dragged a 250 pound dude out of his truck, about 400" across a yard, started opening up a can of whoopass and then the big dude finally remembered he had a gun and shot the skinny kid.[sm=rofl.gif]
