Wrong. Martin wasn't "stalked". Zimmerman was keeping an eye on him, as a neighborhood watch guy/gal might be expected to. The name - neighborhood WATCH" means just that. They try to keep an eye out on people in their neighborhood.
Martin was never threatened. He told his girl friend, just before he turned back to meet with Zimmerman, that he was going to "fix that cracker following me".
To spell is out for the gentrified folk, that means Martin was the one who confronted Zimmerman, with violent intentions.
Either that, or Martin was a doctor, and Zimmerman was his patient.
