Police NEVER told him to stop. A 911 operator is NOT the police. Furthermore, the 911 Operator NEVER said to stop following only that "we don`t need you to do that".
YOU DO NOT have to listen to a 911 operator. A lot of times they will get you killed. They usually tell you never to use your gun on an intruder and to wait for the police. Good luck with that.
Do you understand now?
This^^^If some thug was following a 10 year old girl and I was following him and called 911 and 911 told me to stop following him, I'd tell 9/11 to go fukc themselves...That some thug in a white windowless van isn't going to rape some child while I could have done something about it.
Bottom line, Zimmerman may just have saved someone from being raped or killed...If someone was following me in the pouring rain and I knew in my heart I was doing nothing wrong, I'd most likely run the fukc out of there and go home or get away. T.Martin didn't run away because he was most likely about to do something against the society at large...
