Size is irrelevant in this instance. Zimmerman escalated the scenario and will face dire consequences for pursuing, knowing that he was armed.

The courts will have to confirm this because there are experts on both sides who state that it was one or the other.
Also, even if Martin was "winning" the fight, the "stand your ground" defense doesn't work for Zimmerman as he was the one who escalated the situation and then decided to use his weapon to finish the situation.

Irrelevant. Zimmerman is not being charged with a hate crime, so whatever he said does not really matter at this point.

Are you certain of your stance? Have you legally analysed the case from the 911 tapes and avoided the opposite side of the media blitz?
