BINGO!!!

To these nitwits - like liberals - it is about how they feel. Nothing else matters.

Seriously? I’ve always looked at jury duty as a privilege, and I don’t consider myself stupid by any means. It’s a sobering duty to be put in a position to make decisions based on what’s heard in a court room, as the decision made affects another person and that person’s future. I can’t believe I’m different from most people who sit on a jury in that, regardless of the severity of the charge, the full weight of the obligation doesn’t leave until that final decision is made...and sometimes that weight hangs around for awhile.

[snarkytart]

Yes but she needed to stick to her guns and not issue what wound up being a retraction, and the others had to issue a statement “Oh she doesn’t speak for us”, I guess I’m tired of the cowering and fear.

[GeronL]

Maybe the MSM and leftists will declare on the “reasonable doubt” requirement

I am sick of the intimidation.

I understand this female is a transplanted Chicagoan. Having 8 children makes me more suspicious that she is on the ‘government’ dole. To top it off she says one thing from one side of her mouth and another thing that must have been from the other side. How this person was given jury duty in this case needs some explaining.

[untwist]

Thank God there were 5 right-thinking people who pressed enough to back her off her nonsense. This juror was the one who actually voted guilty on Murder 2 on their first vote. If there was another juror equally twisted, they could have leaned on each other and hung the jury. This juror, given her situation, was no doubt selected by the Prosecution.

All things being equal, all hope would not be lost in our society if every jury was weighted 5:1 in favor of right-minded people. When surrounded by reason and no viable arguments, the low-info dupes don’t stand a chance and fold.

oh please. the only one wanting to commit murder that night was trayvon martin. he was well on his way beating the sh1t out of either a guy who dissed him or a guy he thought was gay and in either case determined he must beat the living sh1t out of the guy. i believe gz that trayvon threatened to murder him.

[Steve_Seattle]

"can Z sue her?....sue her for defamation of character?"

I wonder that myself - can you call someone a murderer even though they were acquitted? It's one thing to say, "He IS a murderer," it's another to say, "I disagree with the verdict." At least I think there's a difference - one is slander, the other is an opinion.

[Secret Agent Man]

what is idiotic is that they also didn’t consider that george has a mom, too.

both of these feelings arguments cancel each other out they have equal weight, because they do not belong in jury deliberations.

and if purple drink’was successful in murdering george that night, trayvon martin would have been protrayed as scum by da prosecutors, who would have had no problem bringing up his past troubles, burglaries, stolen materials, getting into fights, suspension from miami scool threatening a teacher, and all the texts on his phone thy would have fought to include for relevance. he’d have been tried as an adult at 17 and we’d have one more black punk spending decades behind bar for murder, and gz would be another black on white murder statistic.

[jonrick46]

When I heard this woman speaking, she sounded Black to me.

[fortheDeclaration]

She is confusing killing with murder.

[calex59]

This idiot evidently voted for acquittal, otherwise it would have been a hung jury, mistrial. She is now terrified someone is going to kill her or harm her seriously so she is acting as if she was forced to vote not guilty. I would imagine she is of the same cowardly stripe as the people Zimmerman helped save from the car. Coward is the only way to describe them.

Had I been one of the people saved by Z I would have announced that I am armed most of the time and any a**hat that wants to start something is going to have to take his chances winding up like Trayvon. Dead.

[FlingWingFlyer]

B29 sure doesn’t seem to be very bright. If there is “no evidence” that Zimmerman committed murder, it wasn’t murder. Idiot!

[SandwicheGuy]

Juror sounds incredibly stupid.

Proof is she could not get out of jury duty.

[AndyTheBear]

“You can’t put the man in jail even though in our hearts we felt he was guilty,”

Seems she overcame her own bigotry when it was time to vote as a juror.

[Washi]

I suspect this woman is afraid of the retribution that jackson, sharpton, the media and obama have been egging on and is trying to curry favor with the “justus for trayvon” mob to save her bacon.

[unseelie]

I’m afraid she lost me at (paraphrased), “I knew he was guilty because of the evidence, but the evidence showed that he wasn’t guilty so we had to choose that verdict.” Can’t quite wrap my mind around that.
