I didn't say that all. I said Zimmerman had other options. His best bet would have been to try to fight Martin off while help arrived. Instead using restraint, he used deadly force when deadly force was clearly not called for.
If he had tried to fight Martin off without shooting him, he might have been a hero instead of having one teenager dead and Zimmerman's life destroyed. Then again, maybe if Martin lived he would have told a completely different story.
