George Zimmerman not expected to face civil rights charges in Trayvon Martin death

92. Does that actually constitute a substantive rebuttal to the issues?

It doesn't matter what sub-groups someone chooses to post in, particularly since last I checked this board was not named IHateGunsUnderground. Obviously to the great displeasure of many here, many loyal, active and often quite progressive Democrats, including our elected politicians, support gun rights and self-defense in various degrees.

The State charged Zimmerman with first degree murder (and lesser included offenses) and the lengthy trial resulted in his full acquittal. The Department of Justice lead by Eric Holder and Barack Obama has now similarly determined that there is insufficient evidence to charge, no less convict, Zimmerman of federal civil rights offenses.

I would like to hear from those accusing their fellow Democrats of being "apologists" for Zimmerman to detail what admissible evidence and witnesses were not examined and proffered by local police, FBI, special prosecutor and Department of Justice? What more could the prosecution or DOJ have done under established ethical and evidentiary rules and procedures?

Any explanation of how the desire to see Zimmerman killed or injured will positively impact racial injustice issues would also be most enlightening.
