Never saw an acquittal at a hanging party.

I think the PROSECUTION can save the place from riots by dropping all charges, and blaming their own stupid witnesses for changing their stories

I have forgotten, what did happen to Nifong? Did NC give him some kind of award or what?

The entire mess is a travesty of justice, decency and common sense.

If so many liberals moved from PA and NY to FL, and FL became liberal, why didn't PA and NY turn more conservative? Have there been polls showing how much or how little support Zimmerman has in FL?

Well it should have but it would have made the riots start sooner so the judge decided to put it off until the not guilty verdict. Let the jurors take the heat.

The motion for dismissal could have been granted, but it is not common, even is cases that seem thin like this one.

On the upside, should Zimmerman be acquitted, he will never be tried for this again because of this motion. If it had been granted, the state could have attempted to bring charges against him in the future.

There will be another one when the defense rests so Nelson will get a Mulligan.

When westerns went off the air, the American people turned even more liberal and flocked to the mob mentality.

Disbarred and imprisoned, I thought.
