Simple question, do you think George Zimmerman got a fair trial?

That's pretty much what the juror B37 admitted the jury believed: Martin didn't "elude" but rather ambushed Zimmerman. Zimmerman didn't testify, but his version of events -- in his words -- was introduced through sworn statements, interviews and a walk-through recreation of the event with police.

If Zimmerman had been convicted, the conviction would have been overturned on appeal. The prosecutors violated law when they did not share information they had with the defense.

The prosecutors went forward with a charge of Second Degree Murder they couldn't prove.

The prosecutors prosecuted the case against Zimmerman maliciously in that they forced Zimmerman to stand trial without a grand jury having heard any evidence and returned an indictment simply on a hearsay statement from two investigators.

Further, the prosecutors continue to malign Zimmerman's character after he's been judged "not guilty" by his peers.

The lib-retard MSM and the race baiters are also continuing to malign Zimmerman's character after he's been judged "not guilty" by his peers. This whole circus has been unfair since the race baiters and the lib-retard MSM shoe-horned their way into a local matter. Originally Posted by I B Hankering

Yep, another case of an over eager prosecuting team blowing
their chances.

One of the best situations a defendant can hope for.

A greedy overzealous prosecution.

The whole racist idea is pretty ridiculous as well.

Should he have thought, this kid is black, so even
though he's creeping around looking into houses I
had better leave him alone and ignore it.

Give me a break.

He never should have been tried in the first place.

Zimmerman had a fair trial. He had the better lawyers, which always helps, and in this case they convinced the jury that there was reasonable doubt. I suspe that even if the lawyers for the state were better the result would likely be the same. Originally Posted by Old-T

I was watching the prosecutors being interview post trial. To summarize, they thought they didn't win the case because they didn't have the evidence and didn't have the witnesses. They didn't offer alternative scenarios to Zimmerman's because they didn't want to speculate and ask the jury to believe the speculation. Their strategy was to exploit GZ's inconsistencies in his story.

In other words ....

The problem Americas can seem to accept is that it is legal to gun a person down if they approach you with physical violence. Originally Posted by ArisRose

Why is that a "problem"? If someone throws a punch at you, are you not allowed to defend yourself? Killing in self defense is not just an American problem.

At the most Zimmerman was guilty of profiling, stalking, and harassment. And if you feel that you belong to a demographic of oppressed people, you need to identify that these illegal actions are used as a means of psychological warfare. The goal is to provoke you into resorting to violence so you can be legally eliminated. Originally Posted by ArisRose

What kind of psycho-babble bullshit is that?

If you "feel" that you belong to an "oppressed demographic"? There is a nice clean standard/ Psychological warfare by whom?

Whose "goal" is it to provoke you?

Do you think George Z is part of some big conspiracy to legally eliminate blacks?

I still say they should not have had a jury full of bitches. Men understand confrontation a lot better than women. Originally Posted by ArisRose

Manslaughter was an option that was presented to the jury. The instructions in the jury charge are the key to his acquittal along with the jury's belief that it was him screaming like a little fucking girl on that recording. They believed that he was in fear for his life because he acted like a little pussy after picking a fight he couldn't finish without pulling his gun. Originally Posted by timpage

And your evidence that he "picked a fight" is what, exactly?

That he followed Trayvon? That he got out of the car when he lost sight of Trayvon? Or that he told Trayvon "I don't have a problem" when Trayvon asked him what his problem was?

This may come as a surprise to many on this board, but it someone follows you around your neighborhood or just generally acts creepy, you do NOT have the right to kick their ass. What you should do is call the cops - not your girlfriend - and tell them you are being harassed by a creepy acting guy.

As it turns out, the person who called the cops that night was Zimmerman.

Yes.
