If Zimmerman hadn't got out of the car, young Trevon Martin wouldn't be dead. What a freaking travesty of justice, again.

I was watching the bald headed prosecutor on TV and he is UPSET!!!! Funny thing though... he said he had prosecuted many cases and was disappointed in the verdict and felt he proved the case. LOL!!!! He is in denial. His case basically proved that Zimmerman was innocent.
Now they are talking about the IT guy that got fired. She avoided any real answer.

6. That's the problem: the law didn't ensure justice in this case.
The jury probably made the only decision they could have, given Florida law on self-defense. The problem is that law doesn't levy responsibility for the outcome of a confrontation on the person that initiated it.
And that ain't justice...

10. Jurors acted 100% in line with the law. That is the problem. The law is a bad law.
Any other verdict would have been "jury nullification". I wish they would have nullified in this case.
But the irony is that the trial system worked. The result was 100% in line with the law. The problem is not "the system". The problem is the ALEC law.

16. This is straight self-defense law.
The defense relied on black-letter self-defense law, as it appears in one form or another, in all 50 states.
No 'stand your ground', no 'castle doctrine', etc.

24. I don't believe that is correct.
The defense atty in his closing arguments, while possibly not mentioning "stand your ground" by that name (I didn't listen to every word) talked in detail about how the circumstances leading up to the confrontation were irrelevant. That is straight out of SYG, and therefore the judge permitted it as part of the closing argument.

I have also lost pretty much all respect for the law over the last few decades. This is one more horrible example.

26. That is silly talk.
Zimmerman has no power or money. The villain here is ALEC. The system worked. The jurors reached the only verdict they could given the evidence and the law. The problem is the law.

34. They don't care about Martin one way or another. They do care about fomenting conflicts among
the lower classes, and the gun thing makes a great wedge issue -- i.e. a way to distract the masses while they are stealing our wealth.
I would agree there is that much of a connection. I would not agree that they are particularly in favor of seeing America's youth gunned down in cold blood. But that does make a very good distraction.

14. I'm really sad about this
Granted, I was not in the jury box but I still think justice was not served. Zimmerman walks a free man after murdering an innocent black kid.

17. ****ing vigilante cop wannabe.
GZ PURSUED TM and was told NOT to. He could have waited for the cops but he didn't. Made himself judge, jury and executioner.
I have no respect left for the legal system, for several reasons.
I was a court reporter for twenty years, was a legal secretary before that, and also have a Juris Doctor (law degree).
The Federal civil rights violation/hate crime case is yet to come.

20. Welcome to justice in America, white guy gets away with it
A racist jury allows him to go free. If Zimmerman had been a black dude, and Martin a white kid, Zimmerman would have been convicted and facing the death penalty or life in prison.

21. It's surprising, but it means they found that GZ was in fear of bodily harm.
This jury seems to have taken their time and went through the evidence.
Everyone had their day in court.
Many posters will be angry and upset. But many of them also just refused to see the evidence objectively. They were too emotionally invested in the case.
This jury saw and read ALL the evidence. No one in this forum has done that. I respect the verdict. Not sure that would've been my verdict, but as I've said, I would have to sit in a jury room and deliberate the evidence with other jurors.
I said that too much was being made of the jurors being mothers and being sympathetic to TM.

38. It is time for those who are heavily invested emotionally to give it a rest
There are many injustices in our society. The whole area of gun violence -- our celebration of violence in general -- is one of those injustices. But it is not the only one. I encourage everyone to step away from the brink and try to come back when the bigger picture is easier to see.

40. Yeah. I thought manslaughter.
Not on evidence, but on a desire for some sort of punishment or retribution.
One could argue not self-defense but "depraved mind" to get him off 2nd murder. They went "self defense."
And what's left is personal vs. process, history vs individual.

23. get your riot on...
it's what you said you would gladly do. also, remember, you're rioting against the concept of a jury trial when you're out there. you're not rioting against the gov't (they arrested and tried him)... you're not even rioting against Zimmerman. you're rioting against the only thing that prevents the gov't from giving you NO DEFENSE at all...
go ahead... hope you don't get killed. i hope you don't kill anyone or destroy their livelihood... and if you do... i hope you get a jury trial even though you have lost all respect for our system of jurisprudence.

33. Trial By Affirmation Media...
...it was real apparent in this case. If you thought Zimmerman was innocent you gravitated towards Faux while if you thought he should be convicted, MSNBC was saying what you wanted to hear. It's far removed than what goes on inside that court and especially in that jury room. While you got hours of "anal-isis" from people who agreed with you and showed similar outrage, that wasn't the case among the jurors...especially when it came to deciding beyond reasonable doubt when you had a prosecution team that kept asking questions rather than building their own definitive narrative. In the end the jury acted on the letter of the law...not the emotions of teevee lawyers...and that's how they arrived at this verdict.
I don't agree with it...but it's more along the lines of how "self-defense" is defined in the law and while Martin' murder was horrendous, unfortunately this jury found the evidence lacking to convict. I'm hoping for a civil trial where the bar is lower and Zimmerman's profiling could be brought into the case...

There might be justice out there somewhere.

Well, yeah. I do want to gloat. Not over the death of a young man, even though he brought it on himself, but because of such massive, clear evidence of the totally ****ed up, out-of-touch-with-reality nature of the DU echo chamber. It isn't often that an event comes about that so neatly and cleanly demonstrates the disconnect between you DUmbasses and reality. There's no way for you to play this off, other than your tedious playing of the race card again, which no one pays attention to anymore.
Here's to a cold and richly deserved slap in the face to you fiendish, hateful race-baiters.

86. My sons will never be safe
in America. **** George Zimmerman I shed tears for Trayvon and his Parents. this was the most blatant form of racist bullshit. He Murdered a child. And I don't give a **** what a jury full of no nothing broads who don't give a damn about anyone child but their own.. Now Mr. Zimmerman and Sanford Florida will always be a Racist town with racist people. I am done it will take a lot for this one to wash. Kiss my Ass defense team we got you we know you were going to get off. but you keep on ****ing with people's children and sooner or later you will meet their parents.
Something like 89% of black murder victims are killed by other blacks. If there's an existential threat against your sons, it isn't coming from overly zealous Hispanic neighborhood watch members. Start cleaning up your own community before you get hysterical about some genocide coming from the George Zimmermans of this world.
-
Every thinking person realizes now that the only reason St. Trayvon was so bold was because Zimmerman looked soft - an easy target. If that gun had been carried openly, we would not be having this discussion right now.
Now, because MSNBC et al. have decided to keep the pressure on, more neighborhood watch volunteers are going to feel the need to be armed. They have every right to carry and should but the left is going to watch as the anti-gun agenda starts slipping further out of their grasp without their understanding.

A bunch of the world's smartest and most gifted losers think that the trial was about SYG when it was about self defense.

A boy guilty of eating Skittles while black, and dead.
You got that partly right. A boy eating skittles is guilty of being dead.
What was GZ's crime? Spotting someone standing next to someone's house in the rain? (after a sting of burglaries in the neighborhood). Following him while CALLING THE POLICE and reporting it?
What was TM's crime? Going all "gangsta" on GZ.
Did GZ attack TM? Or did TM attack GZ?
Did GZ think he was going to die? Did TM tell GZ he was going to die?
Did GZ know if TM had a weapon?
-

No.
Zimmerman is not a witness.
The Federal Witness Security Program (WITSEC) is a pemanent relocation program which hides witnesses in Federal trials. The witnesses placed in WITSEC are generally criminals themselves who testify in exchange for immunity. WITSEC is a bargaining chip to entice them to testify.
WITSEC (http://www.usmarshals.gov/witsec/) at the US Marshals' website.
Zimmerman was tried in a Florida state court. The state of Florida has no program for protecting defendants who are acquited at trial.

Bingo.
If poor lil Treyvon had minded his manners, instead of being so rude, he might be on the honor roll in high school by now.
True, the "penalty" was a little too severe for mere rudeness, but if one mouths off, one has to accept the consequences, whatever they are.

Because that doesn't advance their agenda.
And that's what all the hullaballoo has been about from the beginning. Al Sharpton forced his way into this story looking to bolster his ratings. Jessee Jackson and the professional race baiters moved in looking to maintain their relevancy. Trayvon's mother trademarked his image looking to make some easy cash. Obama used this case looking to score some votes. The Justice Department sent down "community organizers" looking to keep their guy in office. The DA was all the time looking to score political points and improve her career. The police chief, warned by the example of the previous police chief who got fired because he wouldn't arrest Zimmerman, arrested Zimmerman looking to keep his job. Multiple newspapers, MSNBC, ABC, and the like doctored recordings and images and wrote damning op-eds convicting Zimmerman over and over again looking to get some ratings.
And no one was looking for justice, just their own agenda. And George Zimmerman is the one paying the price - paraphrasing from a post I left on my local newspaper this morning. It's always been agenda. The NAACP is now pushing theirs looking for more donations. If the stories about the Justice Department are true, well, they're looking to save themselves from embarrassment. I don't think it's going to end soon or well.
