To the extent I come across as excessively contrarian, its because I frankly find it boring to essentially post me too, I agree type posts. So, I am more likely to post in a thread where I disagree with some or all of what is being said than a thread where I agree with what is being said. In the Zimmerman-Martin case, I tend not to agree with the general beliefs of the people who use this site, as you put it, in that the general beliefs appear to be that Zimmerman is 100% innocent, while I am hesitant to reach any conclusion before we see all of the facts and evidence.

Well, I guess you’re one of those folks who doesn’t believe that strange American concept of INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY?

Of course he is entitled to a presumption of innocence, but that applies only to the legal proceedings, not to public opinion. There's no American concept that says that people can look at a case and reach their own conclusions about whether someone is guilty or not before that person is convicted or acquitted.
