Of course he would, he's neighborhood watch. He's not the average person. Most people won't help a person that's getting beaten to death right in front of them. And again, he was NOT pursuing.

Zimmerman was reckless in carrying his pursuit of Martin and likely only felt safe enough to do it because he was armed. The prosecutor will highlight this.

What will play the biggest part in the case is who the aggressor was. From all the evidence, it's very clear the aggressor was Trayvon. Throwing in race and whether or not who was armed is nothing but grasping at straws. And again, he was NOT pursuing.
