He's talking about the law, not the real world.
Besides the fact that the law has very little to do with this entire cluster f*ck, he's not taking into consideration the threats the jurors and their families will get. The New Black Panthers will put a bounty on the jurors if they acquit. It won't be done as openly as they did with Zimmerman. But you can bet that it will be made known to the jurors what might happen to them or their families if Zimmerman is acquitted. It is asking a hell of a lot of a person with a spouse and two little kids to follow their conscience and acquit some guy they don't even know at the risk of their own family.
All of the banana republics in North America are not south of the Rio Grande.
Be funny if Alan volunteers his services, pro bono, to Mr. Zimmerman’s defense.
