I guess a 17 year old with skittles would seem very dangerous to an unstable person carrying a gun.

The skittles and Arizona drink were for him to make a drug with codein, which he had literally posted about making since 2011. He was smashing Zimmerman's head against the ground when he was shot. It was a self defense shooting.
None of that means I don't think Zim is a scumbag. His actions since that shooting have proved it multiple times. But Martin was a druggy thug and no attempts by the media to portray him otherwise change that fact. The media even altered pictures of Martin to make him look like a nice innocent kid, when in fact his posted pics show otherwise.
