Trayvon Martin: Probe into killing of Florida teenager

[Icarus]

Refer to my post #20

The maniacal drunk guy was physically superior to the home owner who used a pistol to equalize his disadvantage. The drunk was a known bad ass by police but not known by the homeowner. The drunk had had previous run ins with the law.

And yes, the same home, the same family, were twice threatened by intruders who had used forced entry. In the aftermath of the first incident, is it not understandable that the innocent family would have been afraid for their lives and willing to take sterm measures to save themselves? Incidentally the home was in a decent neighborhood not at all accustomed to or tolerant of forced intrusions.
