Again I didn't say he was hunting. It was a comparative claim. Saying I'm more like a woman than a frog isn't saying I'm a woman.

But hey, if he wants to stay around Florida and make himself visible while there's a bounty on his head, that's certainly his choice and likely another bad choice in a growing list.

Following someone down a sidewalk is not the same as "hunting" a person.  We have exactly zero evidence that Zimmerman followed Martin in order to kill him.
