The question is, why was it made such a huge news story? The arrest of Mrs. Zimmerman may backfire on the prosecutor.

Why was it such huge news 3 weeks after it happened?

The professional aggrievance industry needed a fund raiser for 2012. The PAI board met on March 1 and decided this would work.

It’s worked so well, they now use trash cans instead of collection baskets to fund raise.

“The question is, why was it made such a huge news story?”

Because: A) the supposed perp was “white,” B) the supposed victim was unarmed and a photogenic black youth, and C) gun-grabbers don’t like Stand Your Ground and mistakenly thought it applied.

What I wonder is why the lag between the event and the story breaking nationally? Despite the distance between me and the hardcore leftist media (and I’m talking DU and Al Gore’s crappy tv network here, not MSNBC) I noticed it percolating in the intervening months. It might have been Jackson/Sharpton’s grandstanding. Maybe it was higher-ups. Who knows?

I’m looking for a case of prosecutorial misconduct when this is over.
