This sad case where everyone including the taxpayers of the state of Florida lost "big time."
No we lost when the media started their bullshit and the politicians was using that "Treyvon Gold" to give their election campaign some juice. If you heard GZ's lawyer final parting words last night, at the press conference. That was exactly how I saw it.

Thanks Captain for the video links. Completely agree with O'Mara. From NBC editing the 911 call to make GZ sound racist, to the media simply following a narrative that was racially charged instead of following facts, it's a miracle that the trial went the way it did.
That cunt Jesse Jackson should have taken MLKjr's bullet. The world would be a far better place.

I felt sad when I saw the verdict in the George Zimmerman case. I shall speak now as one who attended law school but did not graduate. In almost any legal jurisdiction in the world, if someone shoots an unarmed person, even if that person is a policeman or soldier, the person doing the shooting is in serious trouble. A conviction for manslaughter often follows and one is sent away to jail for some time. I honestly felt that Zimmerman was guilty of terrible bad judgment and such a verdict was warranted.
I feel that the way Florida wrote its definition of self defense tied the hands of the jury and left them with no option but to find Zimmerman not guilty.
This is a sad case where everyone including the taxpayers of the state of Florida lost "big time."
My father had some words of wisdom that apply here as follows: "Son a gun will get you into more trouble than it will ever get you out of."
