See the difference?

At least in Florida, not sure about other places, you are allowed to
use deadly force to prevent the commission of a violent felony, even
if requires pursuit. That is not "stand your ground" law however.

Still apples and oranges. Although Zimmerman followed Martin till the
cops told him to stop. All the evidence so far leads to the conclusion

That is yet another one of your lies. He didn't follow Martin "till the
cops told him to stop". He continued after they told him that it's not a
good idea.

Martin initiated the contact, and started the fight.. So all this
other

You don't know that.

**** doesn't matter, at the time of the shooting, Zimmerman was
"standing his ground"... Period...

Bull****.

The evidence presented in court backs up my supposition. If you were not
a racist, you could see that..
