So George Zimmerman shot a boy who's not old enough to drink, 2 times in the back, and 1 to 6 times in the balls (like Robocop) in self defense?

 Zimmerman started the altercation by stalking him.   A frightened or violent response would be a normal thing in that context.  He also decided to ignore the advice from the authority figures he called when he dialed 911.  I really wish people whom disobeyed the law and authorities weren't allowed to carry guns.  As the legal aged adult I feel that he did far enough even before the last part of the altercation that blame should land squarely on his shoulders.  

Following and trying to question someone doesn't mean you deserve to get your head smashed into the ground. Situations like that is why we're allowed to carry guns.

Zimmerman calling the police leads me to believe he had no intention of starting a fight or killing someone. Just my opinion ofcourse.

When you are not a member of the law you don't have the right to detain and question anyone period.  You inform the authorities of their supposed wrong doing and have them handle it.  He chose to take justice into his own hands. They told him they did not need him to follow the boy and that the police were already on the way.
