It doesn't have anything to do with the actual case, but it has a whole lot to do with the racial narrative. I do care about that.
You don't know what the visual looked like, so you can't really make the claim that it was a "lame suspicion".
If he was coming toward him and then turned to run, I would want to know why he would act in that way, if in fact, it happened as Zimmerman states it did. And if he did run, as a neighborhood watch, I think I would want to know where he ran off to. If he says, "They always get away", I could see why he followed him. He doesn't want any more robberies in his neighborhood and wants to alert the police as to the boy's direction. If Trayvon was there to commit a crime, it may warrant why he ran. Of course, conjecture, but an attorney will present the same questions.
I think we are all just asking a few questions along the way. I am not claiming Zimmerman is innocent. I would just need more substantial evidence in order to hang the man. If I have to rule in a life or death case and it is my decision to make, I would want more details and none of us really have it. It's a 50/50 from my view without more evidence.
I don't have high hopes this case will be solved. I've been in a court room where the Prosecuting attorney asked the witness, "If you saw pictures, would you believe it?" He responded, "No." lol! That is what this case will more than likely turn out to be.

You're right. This will probably end up being unsatisfactory for a lot of people, because not all the questions CAN be answered absolutely.
None of us can really make absolute judgment calls until all the facts are out, which could take months. For me right now the evidence leans toward Zimmerman being over-zealous and shooting an unarmed teenager unjustifiably. However, if clear evidence shows otherwise, I'm okay with changing my mind. I'm not holding my breath, though. The more info that comes out, the more I'm liking Zimmerman for murder.
