George moves into a gated 260 unit community to rent a place and puts forth great effort to create a neighborhood watch program.
Why? Where is his benefit? He patrols these streets with vigor; in other words, he spends a large amount of his personal time and money driving around the neighborhood. He knows these streets.
What would motivate a person to act this way? Most of us are either working, playing or sleeping. Was George special in that the work he put into patrolling his neighborhood was play?
We know a lot about why people do what they do. It is not Rocket Science.
On that night, who is to say that Zimmerman did not decide to patrol the neighborhood after getting high and consuming a couple of beers while playing a First Person Shooter video game for an hour or two?
The fact remains that Zimmerman pulled out his gun and fired it just like he trained himself to do.
GZ surely rehearsed what he would do if he was “forced” to use his gun.
The very fact that he carried a gun, would indicate that he had practiced pulling it out quickly and firing; in addition to this, he certainly was in a position to hear specific details about court cases with his parents and their colleagues. What did he learn from the conversations he had with Police Officers after calling them so many times? GZ could have much insight on how to act and what to say after shooting somebody because he had thought about it a long time.
Why GZ wanted to carry his own weapon is not clear, but all the information points to the fact that GZ knew exactly what to say and when to say it. He could easily have created the small wounds to his own head because he knew he would need some physical evidence to back-up his story.
