Justice for Trayvon??

Of course it should have gone to trial. I will say that it should not have been made a spectacle, but absolutely it had to go to trial. I think the jury voted correctly, but really, Zimmerman should be going to jail. Can you please explain how you think the aftermath would turn out to be the biggest tragedy of all?

No it shouldn't have. There was no evidence to support any of the charges brought against Zimmerman. The lead investigator said so in his report as did the police chief, and the then state attorney, Norm Wolfinger. Norm recused himself from the case rather than succumb to political pressure. The police chief was fired and the lead investigator demoted. The IT guy for the states attorneys office was fired Friday, why, because he is the fellow that notified the court, and the defense, that over 2000 pages of evidence were being withheld by the prosecution from the defense. These were ALL political acts made by politicians for no other reason than to force charges, a trial, and with the withholding of evidence presumably a guilty verdict. And after all of these mechanations to force the trial and a guilty verdict the jury still found correctly on the basis of the law.

And under which statute would you incarcerate Zimmerman? There are none that I know of that you might apply to achieve that particular goal.

And why is the aftermath going to be worse? What was once a racial showdown only in the eyes of a few has now been blown into a problem of epic proportions no small thanks to the media. The case was never about race, even Martin's parents have publicly stated so. And while initially there were only a few in the black community that wouldn't be satisfied with anything short of Zimmerman being found guilty, or killed, those numbers have swelled to the thousands, thousands focused on Zimmerman specifically and whites in general. All because of this political show trial and how is this a good thing?

As far as Zimmerman is concerned I hope that he's used this time to finish the level 3 Rosetta Stone courses in Spanish and then uses his South American passport to leave the country because his life isn't worth a plug nickle here. Some gang banger is going to cap his ass thinking they're going to be hailed a hero, and some will hail him as such, and that action is going to have consequences of its own.

The OJ trial signaled blacks that it was OK to terrorize whites.

The Zimmerman trial signals blacks that its not OK to terrorize whites.

The tipping point was reached and the worm turned. Thugs now know where the line is.
 
I do think he should go to jail. Not on those charges, though. I think his actions led to Trayvon's death and that he should be held accountable. I wish the laws were different.

Emotions on both sides are heated. I apologized for misreading what you were saying earlier, but I think your comments now are inappropriate, and I'm taking them at face value. However, I know I'm also being hyper-sensitive, so I'm going to mosey on out of this thread. Just wanted to clarify my position.

you make no fucking sense

just like all LIBZ
 
Are you reading what I'm saying? I think the jury voted correctly.



Which they can neither prove nor disprove.



Which they can neither prove nor disprove.

You're acting as though they proved both of those things, which they can't and didn't. You're using this combined with your own assumptions of Trayvon's character to suggest that his killing was justified, and I think that's pretty awful.

you are MOUTHING LIB shit

you didn't even bother watching the trial at all

its "people" like you that should be in jail for instigating un-needed hatred

the mistake you make

is

writing a well thought out reasonable response to someone that is obviously deranged on the issue

I think you were still a resident of Florida in 2010, who did you vote for?
 
So a Hispanic shoots a black and is acquitted by women, but it's still white men's fault.:cool:
 
JUSTICE: “In a breaking development, the Special Prosecutor’s Office of Angela Corey has fired the IT specialist who blew the whistle on the prosecution’s concealment of evidence.” They told me if I voted for Mitt Romney, there’d be a war on whistleblowers. And they were right!
 
The jury thought he was without guilt.

Only legally that we know, which is what counts.

I think the Atlantic summed it up best

"What the verdict tells us is, you can go looking for trouble in Florida, with a gun and a great deal of racial bias, and you can find that trouble, and you can act upon that trouble in a way that leaves a young man dead, and none of it guarantees that you will be convicted of a crime."

Amen.

Yep, murder by self-defense.

Yep, murder by self-defense.

The only thing to be gleaned from the Atlantic opinion piece is that race baiting is alive and well and if left to the media would become a growth industry.

Opinions are like belly buttons, everyone has one.

This is nothing more than your intrinsic bias!
