Maybe because Martin ran and hid? Kind of hard to get to the "detain" part when you lose sight of the person running away.
At what point did Z have the opportunity to detain?

So then what point do you stop "citizen arresting" and leave it to the professionals?

And what evidence is there that Z was doing anything other than "observing"?

While you all are opining on whether Zimmerman did anything wrong, HE WAS INITIALLY CLEARED of any wrongdoing. Cleared despite police reports that they were LOOKING to effect an arrest- "We wanted to arrest him, but we couldn't". It appears to me that he did everything right.
I'll say it again: Zimmerman's only real mistake was failing to carry a GOOD flashlight.

Too late at that point, he was already doing it. Again Neighborhood Watch, not Neighborhood Vigilante. He made his choice, look where it got him.

They didn't say do what you will, they specifically told him we DON'T need you to do that. That's pretty clear to me, it means "STOP doing that dumba$$"

Where it GOT him was cleared of any wrongdoing. Only after external pressure was he (lamely, at that) jammed up. What they are now doing to him is the real crime here, and is the one thing that people should be paying attention to.

Only if you REALLY need to keep from having to admit that you were wrong all along can you equate those two. Doesn't matter anyway, because assuming it was an order (which it wasn't), it was an unlawful order.

I think M would like a word with you on what the real crime was.
Ohh, poor Z is being inconvenienced for being a dumba$$. Poor him.  His dumbassery got someone killed. He was wrong FIRST (a FACT which CANNOT be denied) by getting out of the car. M 'MAY" have been wrong in attacking (NOT a fact as we don't really know).
