Truth matters.

Look at Zimmerman as it turned out... Zimmerman’s case was tried in a court of law - and he walked. Justice was done.

Why care what the hysterical press thinks about this? You don’t care what they think about us, do you? Our system was set up so we would be tried by a jury of our peers - not by liberal elites and their sycophants in the press.

No stores were looted ‘in memory’ of young people slaughtered in Chicago this week-end. Ever wonder about that?

Actually, it wasn't. George Zimmerman's entire life was turned upside down. He lost his wife. He was/has not been able to find a job. George Zimmerman will never be the same.

And yes, he was tried in a court of law, but that should never have happened because he had violated no law. And it was only the integrity of the jury that saved him. An action that surprised the prosecution and judge.

Methinks the first store was looted as retribution for getting Brown arrested. Seeing their fantasy come to life, and not caring _why_ the looting occurred, others jumped in and propagated the looting - leveraging the fact that if enough criminal activity happens at once, the police just stand aside.

Chicago would have as much or more looting if criminals got their act together & acted en masse and overwhelmed police response, rather than acting individually which allows overwhelming police response.

The fact that he was in a courtroom at all was a miscarriage of justice.

It was a trumped-up, political indictment.

It was a clear-cut, open and shut, case of self-defense that never should have wasted the time and resources of a jury.

Injustice - not justice - was done, and Zimmerman is lucky that the full extent of his unjust treatment was not even worse.
