^Yes. And I’m confused as to why. All I have been hearing from the Zimmerman camp is “not to judge” and "innocent until proven guilty. Well here is the chance for all that to happen.

A political climate has been created whereby it will be impossible for Zimmerman to get a fair trial.[/quote]
I refuse to buy into that way of thinking. Will it be an easy process? Maybe not but this is our system our way of law. This is part of the line we walk as citizens. He took a life. A question exist as to why, I see nothing wrong with how this is going so far. I see no sham no mockery. If someone has a better way let us all know.

I’m not saying they shouldn’t bring charges against him if they have sufficient evidence. I’m just very doubtful that he can get a fair trial.[/quote]
What does that have to do with the “anger” we are seeing in some of these posts?
I mean, that was the question to start with.

I wasn’t talking about that. I was talking specifically about:
"All I have been hearing from the Zimmerman camp is “not to judge” and “innocent until proven guilty. Well here is the chance for all that to happen. But it seems that people have already concluded that he should be set free without completion of our judicial process.”
It’s not quite as simple as that now that the process has been corrupted.[/quote]
I still don’t hear of any options. Unless you want to just let him go free. And again its the best system I know of. Its up to his lawyers to weed out in the jury process. The court is not MSNBC or CNN or Fox News. Can Bias raise its head in a court room? YES. That is why we have check and balance. I just can’t lead into the “impossible” way of thought.
Our country didn’t go that route in the south during the 30’s-70’s when it was thought “impossible” for a person of color to have a fair trial. We work within our laws for justice and if our laws fail us we work to change them, not abandon them. And we know this when we leave the house everyday. Zimmerman knew this when he left his house that day. And if he didn’t he should have.[/quote]
I’m glad you said it and not me. This country couldn’t get a fair trial for a black man through much of the last two centuries but media bias now means you get pissed at the justice system?[/quote]
So two wrongs make a right? Again, letting the past live now won’t heal shit. Repackaged horse shit is still horse shit.
