It's like a DUI manslaughter. I have driven drunk before. I know as I make the decision to drive in that state that if I hit and kill someone I am responsible. I am responsible even if the accident is not my fault.

I don't' believe GZ was a racist who followed Trayvon because he was black. However the moment he decided to follow this dude against the police's direct order not to he stepped in that car.

This kid would have walked to his father's house alive had it not been for Gz's original decision to be a vigilante in the wrong.
