The bottom line is if you are going to disagree with the jury, then you have to have more knowledge about the situation than they do and I don't, so that's my rationale. I believe for the system to be fair once a person is acquitted, then he should be able to continue life as an ordinary citizen, unless someone with more knowledge brings it forth as more evidence. Even that is a little shaky!
That is not the bottom line and this isn't about more knowledge... I don't know of anyone who disagrees with the jury, they came to the conclusion that had to come to according to how the case played out. That's why the jury cried. For him to live out his life and continue as an ordinary citizen might be fair, but none of this is fair and life isn't fair, ask Martin's parents if life is fair. It isn't.

And the evidence of that?
It's there if you ignore all the popular opinions and boil it down to the event.
Al Sharpton said so. That's really all there is. An opinion based on Al Sharpton said so. lol
Sorry, I didn't know anything about Al Sharpton's comments, never brought him up, you and others did. Ignore the factual parts all you want, but they do tell a story, Mr. "Just the Facts".

Or George's family and friends who are rarely mentioned.

Finally, you say something I can agree with... the rest...I can agree that he showed poor judgement in a few of his decisions....but not being in his situation that night I can't make a definite decision on it.
I can. If I were in Zimmerman's shoes that night, I would have stayed in my truck, called the cops, and stayed in my truck waiting for the cops. Zimmerman's decision to spurn the advice was the indirect cause of a death.

I was expecting that the man who holds the highest office in his country to reiterate his belief in the laws of the land. Would have been nice to hear that Barry.

I was certainly surprised to hear him bring the 'stand your ground' law -which had nothing to what-so-ever do with the trial - into the conversation.
I just heard Obama's opinion on the radio. Had to laugh. He doesn't sound like he knows much about the case at all. In the very least, he sounds like he swallowed the lamestream media's baloney by the hook, line, and sinker.

Oh he knows and is stoking the fire.

Nah. The bottom line is Martin is dead because Zimmerman didn't follow instructions, and Zimmerman was declared not guilty of one charge due to lack of evidence. That is pretty obvious, IMO.

The psychotics on here still figger he's innocent due to the lack of evidence to convict.

Next time some savage gets off on a mistrial, it 100% means they didn't do it and are innocent.

He didn't get off on a mistrial. He was acquitted, the Prosecution had no case to begin with. Should have never seen the inside of a courtroom.

Yeah we are not going to see eye to eye on this. Everyone is suspicious in someone's eyes. Looking wrong to someone else should not warrant being followed around. Neighbourhood watch when done properly has a potential to really protect a neighbourhood. When done wrong, it has the potential to strip the people who live there of their rights, and their safety.

Yep.

Just out of curiosity, why do you think Martin was a "suspicious character?"

I didn't even know who he was until he got himself killed by attacking a guy with a gun. Nice try though. Perhaps you can drop a little race bait for someone else. Oh, and thanks for the thumbs up Tecumseh.

Northern Ontario,
1. I don't think the kid needed to die.
2. Zimmerman should have followed police instructions.
3. I don't think there was enough evidence to convict, so if I were the judge, I'd have dismissed the case without prejudice. That means if new evidence showed up, everyone would be back in court rerunning the same charge.
4. The sensationalism caused by the lamestream media was absolutely despicable.

I can. If I were in Zimmerman's shoes that night, I would have stayed in my truck, called the cops, and stayed in my truck waiting for the cops. Zimmerman's decision to spurn the advice was the indirect cause of a death.

You're slowly catching on .....from Police instruction to 911 operator (that you forgot to quote) advice....

There may be hope for you yet..:lol: ........But it's like pulling teeth....;-)

Not guilty, yeronner. Read a little further and you'll find I told the truth about you from my perspective.

It were an honest question, guv. No foolin'.

If I were Zimmerman's old man, I'd be asking him, "So, what's it like have one lone brain cell wandering around in that noggin of yours ......... in the dark?".

If I were Zimmerman's Old Man I'd be urging the Hispanic Community to vote for anyone but Obama.

I'm not entirely sure a guy named Zimmerman would have that much credibility with the Hispanic community.

Zimmerman's Hispanic blood is through his Peruvian mother.

And Obama's term limited. Nobody's gonna vote for him anymore.

Good Grief.

You are right regarding Obama, I stand corrected. He should encourage the Hispanic Community to vote Republican.

Slowly catching on? Where the hucking fell do you think 911 ops get their guidelines from concerning suspected crime? I'd make a bet that cops issue sheets of instructions (or computer pages) to tell people that phone 911. And I would also make a bet that if Zimmerman had called the cops fdirectly, he'd have gotten the same instructions the 911 op gave him. And that would have been, "stay put".
Sorry you haven't caught on yet.

There may be hope for you yet..:lol: ........But it's like pulling teeth....;-)
My hope for you is slowly dying.

Agreed. Some sheeple can't tell who is sheep and who is man, either.
