This guy's gonna walk
Looks like that zimmerman trial is coming to a closure very soon. Like tomorrow or the day after? I think this fruit cake is gonna walk. Maybe it was self defense and maybe the kid sucker punched him in the face, but what the hell is that guy doing stalking this guy with a loaded gun? He's not even a cop but more of a cop wannabe. Kind of a BS way to die. I think this loser's life is over with. Who's gonna hire him for a job? He will have to go in hiding to a different country because if he stays in the states, I don't think he will survive. The other guy is dead so he's moot.

I dunno, but I do think there's going to be a lot of controversy either way. And if he's declared not guilty, I see rioting in the streets.

I don't think any rioting, but backlash indeed. Regardless, Zimmerman will have to live with the guilt..

I live about 100 miles from Sanford so we get even more media coverage about it than the rest of the country. Zimmerman following Martin might not have been the right or smart thing to do, but it was not illegal. This case begins and ends with the physical confrontation between the two. Does the eyewitness and physical evidence presented in court (not the media), support the claim of self-defense? Yes. Please note that I said it supports it, I did not say it proves it. The prosecutor is the one with the burden of proof, and this so far has been one of the worst cases presented by a D.A. that I have seen. The lawyers in the O.J. case were more competent. Have you ever seen so many prosecution witnesses testimony help the defendant like they have here?
So what will the aftermath be? Five white woman and one Hispanic woman acquitting white/Hispanic man accused of killing a black teenager could trigger some unrest. I'm sure when they do the man-in-the-street interviews you will here quite a bit about the jury's makeup.

Can you say Casey Anthony? Quite a darling. And the pride of Florida, Aileen Warnos (via Michigan) or Ted Bundy (via several states, but Fla saw the last of him)

Big difference between Zimmerman and Anthony. The jury heard evidence against Anthony and choose not to believe it. The Zimmerman jury has heard how Zimmerman defended himself, from both the defense and prosecution. As for the other two, they have yet to re-offend :cool:
