Since the police and the political system now punish anyone who kills anyone of the protected class (e.g., negroes), you must not allow yourself to be taken by them.
That's my view, after watching Feinstein's show in CSPAN today. This country is screwed. Permanently.
But the mainstream media thought that Zimmerman was a typical white person (not knowing that he was part-Hispanic and part-black), because of his surname, and wanted to use the case to inflame anti-white sentiment among minorities and opposition to laws allowing self-defense.
Once Sharpton got involved, the authorities decided they needed to railroad Zimmerman to avoid race riots.
It will probably all depend on whether the defense can select honest jurors who will judge the case on the merits rather than on what the media has reported.
