In reply to the discussion: Zimmerman will never see the insides of another Courtroom - move on people [View all]Blue_Tires
(57,596 posts)40. I'm not trying to re-try the case
and I give less than a flying fuck on Zimmerman's ultimate fate...Hope he makes a million dollars...Make him the new NRA spokesman...Hell, send him an honorary DU membership since so many people here admire him and he's supposedly a 'democrat'...I just wanted to know the WHY (thank you for outing yourself, juror B37) and voice my reasons on why I believe the people involved got this very, very wrong...
Everyone knows that sadly Martin's case isn't the first and isn't the last...It isn't even the most RECENT...As a black male living in arguably the biggest "gun state", in a conservative community not unlike Zimmerman's, MY concern is how this gets prevented from happening again and again, so I don't get shot while walking my dog at night...
