During the Zimmerman trial, we have had DUers argue for his acquittal, which, of course, happened...

67. Exactly.

I remember when he was acquitted, my good friends and family - some of them die-hard liberals - thought the acquittal was correct. I was depressed for days by both the result of the trial and by my loved ones reactions. I remember telling some of them, Zimmerman is a thug and a dangerous man. He will land in prison eventually. I only hope no one else has to die. But mark my words, you will see more thuggery from this moron. I told them, when that day came, I hoped they would re-evaluate their position on the outcome of the trial.

One person said it so articulately here on DU. I paraphrase, but they pointed out that so far Zimmerman has been attacked by 3 women, one 70-year old man, and a teenager walking home with some candy and a soft drink.

In each case he claimed he was only defending himself. In each case he caused broken property (or death) and he was wielding a gun. He has been pulled over twice for excessive speeding, also with a gun. He still hasn't paid his attorneys despite receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations to his legal fund.

The man is a ticking time bomb. He should have been put in jail for murdering that boy. I'm still so angry about that.
