I think zimmerman is guilty of being an overzealous tool but either than that it sounds like he was truly defending himself, but he did provoke the attack and should somehow be punished, maybe a few months to a year in prison and have his gun license taken away
this could have easily been prevented, when zimmerman asked martin what he was doing there martin should have just told him
