If the juror was convinced of his guilt she's a coward. And is it OK to use a racial slur describing her? Or is there indeed a double standard.

Still trying to falsely equate that extremely hateful old word for slaves, starting with an N with that mildly humorous 'cracker' one directed white people? You did read the link to story, right? The juror said in her opinion that Zimmmerman got away with murder but that in the end Florida law did not support her contention. Now she's a "coward?!? Feel free to call her a Puerto Rican/American but stop with this false equivalence line you're on with, please. It make's me nauseous and I'm caucasian.

If he didn't break the law he's not a murderer.
The phrase 'cracker' originated from the crack of the overseers whip. Sorry but applied seriously like it has been? It IS insulting.

Give it a rest, Pete. You're starting to prove that you are what you say you aren't. A crybaby.

She said that they did not "present evidence" that he broke the law. There is a dofference, when you serve on a jury all you have to go on is what is presented in court - been there done that.

Ah so Rob. I understand. And she at least has the good grace to say 'feels like he got away with murder' - it's well stated.
Bob, double standard? In the correct company and situation I can freely use the n word as a greeting. As I can call you an ignant c'acker. But say the n-word seriously? Wrong place wrong time can get you shot. Why should it be any different the other way around?

Because it's false equivalence, Pete. Need a link to the explanation? It's been posted here in this forum many times. I never pegged you for shallow person. So stop trying to prove me wrong.
Whut's a c'acker? A Rhode Island Red?
