reaction from the audience they empathized. what it indicated to me trayvon martin was unnerved, scared possibly, this 17-year-old kid older guy following him. doesn t know what is going on and he may well when they came together, not entirely sure how that happened he may have lashed out in fear. again, i suppose i come back to isn he perfectly entitled to do that under self-defense himself? why should he lose his life because some guy is following him, and he s freaked out by it? couple of reasonable reactions. if in fact, he was that concerned about it, i m not sure why that never showed up in rachel jeantel s testimony before the trial, it doesn t show up in the internal conversation with ms. fulton or mr. de la rionda and showed up slightly in a deposition.
