His whole family is in hiding.

Apparently you have a greater love for lynch mob justice than an ignert buck toothed cracker such as myself has ever considered.

I am not well versed in armed vigilantism.

Only if I have a watertight alibi.

Charles, it's hopeless.: Never the twain shall meet.

Even the jury though Zim should be convicted of something so don't make like the guy was innocent.

If his family is in hiding they have his actions to thank.

Yup. I'm going to go out and put on a hoody and BBQ sumpthin'.

We've got a red tail hawk killin' pidgeons out front, mebbe squab is what's for dinner? Sumbitch just eats the heads. Hmmmm, I wonder if I can borrow my Mom's 410 and get myself in some real trouble, federal style?
Update, there's two of 'em. A breeding pair? That would be cool but they better leave the kittycats alone or things will get ugly quick at Chez Bob's.
Not a crow in sight, BTW. I'll try to get a pic.

The wannabe cop would of been better off if he had been convicted of a lesser crime. Being the public still would be upset but would feel he paid something for doing it.

For those who care not guilty does not ever mean they are innocent. Just ask someone about Casey Anthony's case for an opinion.http://blog.constitutioncenter.org/2...casey-anthony/

Just to be clear on the nomenclature, the jury found him "not guilty." "Innocent" was not one of the options available. Perhaps a jury in a civil case will determine whether there is some culpability and will be allowed to consider the other factors that were deemed insufficient to warrant a conviction for second degree murder (at least, in the opinion of the only ones with a say in the matter).

There are a number of things that don't work well in the system by which people in the US are brought before the criminal courts, but I still have confidence that our system works better than many many others. I have to conclude that it is better to have a system where someone like Zimmerman has a chance of walking than one in which people can be summarily detained without putting the government to the task of establishing guilt beyond a reasonable doubt (that is unless you are accused of being a terrorist).
