We call the police, if we're so inclined, and let them do their job. We don't stalk them, continue to do so against the urging of a 911 dispatcher, follow them between houses, and shoot them dead for reacting to our stalking while carrying lethal candy and iced tea.
But hey, he looked suspicious, so it probably worked out for the best. Minor details.

I don't think that Zimmerman would agree with your argument. I don't think he would say that he killed him because he looked suspicious. I think he would say that he killed him because he was attacked from behind while he was walking back to his car, he was getting the crap beaten out of him including having his head pounded against the pavement, and at that point he feared for his life as most people would if they were being beaten like that.
I think that is what Zimmerman would say as to the reason that he killed him. If there is any evidence that disputes that sequence of events I'm sure the prosecutors will find it.
