Dude, you have no idea what you're talking about. Trayvon was 6 ft and 160 lbs. He wasn't basically an adult.  He was taller and potentially stronger than Zimmerman.

He got Zimmerman down with down to the ground MMA style and was pounding the shit out of him. You don't know the circumstances. He was bloodied and head was getting bashed in. He might have attempted to fight and resorted to the gun when that wasn't work out very well.

if this is enough to justify lethal force, damn I missed a couple occasions to kill people apparently, Zimmerman was 5'7'' and 185 at the time he was getting mauled to death by this ''giant piece of man'' that was Treyvon he didn't know how to kick or punch back his only option was to blow shit up the American way

Good grief.  You're just as bad as the media who purposely edited the 911 call to make Zimmerman sound racist.  Yea, let's take pictures of Zimmerman's wounds AFTER the medical examiner has had a chance to look at him and clean them.  And after his blood has started to clot.  You also have CAT scans that go along with those to show that no damage was happening to his brain with each blow?  How bout, just to be fair, we look at them right after they happened.

    

Also, keep in mind that this is just the extent of the injuries up until the point of Trayvon being shot.  Who knows what they would have looked like if Trayvon had been able to continue to slam his head into the sidewalk.  Point is, Zimmerman didn't know when Trayvon was going to stop, which meant he was in fear for his life or great bodily harm.

And reading other's posts, I can't believe people all of a sudden think the extra 25 lbs of fat that Zimmerman had on his body would make him a better fighter than the extra 5 inches Trayvon had on Zimmerman.  It is true that a lot of pics of Trayvon show him as a skinny teen, however, let's look at a more recent one.

Sorry, but that's not the shoulders and chest of a "skrawny" teen.  Trayvon was 160 lbs of mostly muscle.  That, plus the extra 5 inches in height (and thus a longer reach), will be a much bigger asset in a fight than age and extra weight from fat, even though some of you seem to disagree.
