Zimmerman never claimed he saw Martin burglarizing his neighbors. I have never heard or read any claims that Martin had burgled Zimmerman's neighbors.

I certainly wouldn't sit back while my neighbors got burgled. I would immediately call the police and make notes about what I saw. Perhaps take pictures if light allowed.

Now if a home invader breaks into my house I will certainly put up an armed response if I am able. I will know that he is a dangerous criminal because he busted in knowing I was there. I will know he is not supposed to be there. Everything is clear and clearly covered by castle-law and stand-your-ground law.

And what difference does it make if the burglar is from the nearby projects? If it is the meth-head son from three blocks down robbing your across-the-street neighbor wouldn't you still respond the same?
