It's nice to see at least a small part of our Justice system actually seem to work well, in spite of all the at times obvious bias against the defendant by the court as well as many of the press.

Now we need to see an investigation of the Florida State Attorney's office and see who deleted evidence from Trayvon Martin's phone and elsewhere, and who actually prevented this evidence from being given to the defense.

It seems more than just a bit self-incriminating for the State Attorney's office to fire their own I.T. Director and accuse HIM of deleting all this evidence when it was the I.T. Director who was the actual whistle-blower who testified to all this under oath in court.

Sure looks like they should be firing someone over there, and then disbarring them.

Oh, and I forgot about CNN and other media organizations who released what should have been private details about Zimmerman, including his home address, and social security number.

I'm not one to normally encourage lawsuits... so I'll just leave it at that.

A tragic event, but IMO the system worked.

Quoting a twitter user who threatened to riot in response to a not guilty verdict.


Somebody getting shot while pounding a person's head in the concrete is hardly a tragedy. Actions have consequences.

I'd love to hear from the jurors, what they thought of this circus trial.

Doubt we will have roits in Texas. Those that are threading to roit are just looking for a reason to act a fool. If it does happen in my neighborhood, mossberg 590 is locked and loaded.

This should have never even gone to trial for murder! Do I think he made many many wrong decisions?yes!!! He was guilty of bad jugdement of the situation Of course but all the evidence points to him being assaulted by this young man. He got his but kicked and got over his head real quick knowing he was going to get hurt bad. Hence he lawfully drew his weapon firing the one shot that stopped the aggressor but unfortunately killed the young man in the process.

The whole thing is just horrid. I feel sorry for all involved and hope they can all have some sort of life after this.

Other then that all I can say is that there was reasonable doubt! These jurors knew it just like anybody who is honest with themselves. Is Zimmerman a mor on? It isn't against the law to be one!
