I guess you know nothing of South Beach.

Actually, Jack, you may soon find out how important this case is to you.

Because this and other cases are putting pressure on politicians to revisit the SYG laws.

Begins to sound like that jury had a collective IQ of 89.

I see that the talk track about the jury being "dim" continues to propagate. More of the left's war on women?

In the meantime, facts are stubborn things:

"When they started looking at the law, the person who initially wanted second-degree murder changed her vote to manslaughter, the juror said. Then they asked for clarification from the judge and went over it again and again. B37 said some jurors wanted to find Zimmerman guilty of something, but there was just no place to go based on the law.

B37 said jurors cried when they gave their final vote to the bailiff.

“I want people to know that we put everything into everything to get this verdict,” said the juror, whose face was blacked out during the televised interview but who appeared to become choked up."

Its about the law. Its not about race. Its not about who's a creepy ass cracker and who is a hoodie-wearing kid. You folks can continue to distract yourselves with all manner of BS. The fact remains that the jury had no place to go because they were constained by the law. They could not inflict some form of arbitrary retribution on Zmmerman because that law prevented them from doing so.

Couple that with the fact that the prosecution failed to make its case "beyond a reasonable doubt" about any of the charges, and yes, Zimmerman walks. Zimmerman walked not because the "system doesn't work." The system, in this case, worked perfectly, no matter how much we may or may not like the result.

'This is not a court of justice, it's a court of law!' - a judge, to me.

Emotions run rampant killed Socrates.

That's "creepy assed KRAKA".

In the world of youth, the term KRAKA does not mean the same thing as cracker.
I think there was a serious lack of language comprehension between cultures during the trial, along with the fact the prosecution was pathetic.

I still maintain the prosecution wasn't too keen on winning this case from the get go.
