Trayvon was 140 lbs. He was far out weighed by Zimmerman. Anyone who would think he, being unarmed, would aggress towards Zimmerman had better think again. His past behaviour shows Trayvon to not look for fights. I see him being provoked by Zimmerman into the altercation that ended his life. Zimmerman approached Trayvon knowing he had the force of a concealed weapon, or possibly Zimmerman displayed it upon first contact intimadating Trayvon past reason. I see Trayvon as reacting viserally to a real threat on his life and had only one choice left and that was to fight. The attempt to flee had already been eliminated from the equation as Trayvon had tried to avoid Zimmerman, and Zimmerman would not back off. Zimmerman had a gun and that gun and his preconceived ideas about Trayvon provided Zimmerman with the gumption to act in the way he did.
