His crime was hitting Zimmerman.
And that crime is not punishable by death. It's just assault. Happens every day and night between people.
BUT...if the other guy has a gun (the great equalizer), you will get shot. And maybe killed.
My best guess is that young Trayvon (like all young men) liked to think of himself as a badass. And kicking Zimmerman's ass was gonna be "fun". Hell, I might have gotten annoyed at some busybody following me around too and decided to confront him.
Problem is Trayvon didn't know TWO things:
1. There had been numerous burglaries in that neighborhood.
2. Zimmerman was packing a gun.
Lesson here is: Probably best to NOT jump on somebody and start kicking their ass. 99.9 of the time you will get away with it. And then you'll fuck up and jump on the wrong guy at the wrong time.
