But isn't he claiming self defense?

So any time any one punches anyone, we can now respond with deadly force because it's safe to assume that one blow will be followed by another, and every punch is potentially life threatening. Got it.

Right. So every time someone throws by a punch, it should be met with deadly force, and they should be shot to death. Kill him before he kills you. Got it.

Every time someone flexes their muscles and gives me a dirty look, I can now meet them with deadly force because that first strike might kill me, so I need to kill him first.

So at any time no matter what when someone feels the threat of grave bodily harm, they must shoot and kill them. So if someone rear ends me, causing the threat of bodily harm, I can now shoot them dead.

You have no clue how it went down in those last few seconds - but a few facts are clear.

I'm not downplaying anything. What would have happened had the gun not come out? Pretty much the same thing that happens after every fist fight ever - Some got the best of someone else.
Zimmerman got punched - THAT'S IT. I swear to fucking god I've hurt myself much worse playing hide and seek with my daughter (that ended up with me being rushed to the ER).
This fucking Jackass was playing cop, mishandled everything, got punched, and then shot and killed a seventeen year old kid.
