This whole thing is not about guilt or innocence, we have the opinions of several of America's foremost legal experts that the prosecution has no case at all. It's not even about the 2'nd amendment or gun rights.

This is about:

It's also about the basic idea of equality in our society and the question of whether or not we now have special/protected groups of people who are legally untouchable to the extent that the rest of us can't even defend ourselves when one of them goes crazy on drugs and tries to kill us.

No Seminole County jury will convict George Zimmerman with Bernie de la Ronda as a prosecutor. He is an idiot

BDLR just telegraphed the whole prosecution case to GZ defense....the prosecution has no case

This judge will be overturned if she denies Immunity on a Stand Your Ground hearing. I would think she would not want to embarass herself getting slapped down on appeal.

I am glad to see that O’Mara is much more lively..and giving a very good interview post-hearing

Justice delayed is justice denied.

The long arm of the Department of Justice is at work here.

Zimmerman's best hope,regarding the *state* charges,is that a judge who isn't worried about reelection (perhaps nearing retirement) dismisses all the charges...with prejudice.His second best hope is a couple of hung juries and,after the second one,the presiding judge declaring that the state won't be allowed to try him again.

But even in these best case scenarios,he'll still have to worry about Attorney Corporal Holder.

I've continued to watch TruTV's coverage after the hearing ended. They have just finished talking with a Martin family attorney (not Crump but from his firm) via telephone. If this man is representing the current state of jurisprudence in this Country, no wonder we've slid into the abyss. He's basically - as a JD - justifying the tainting of witness 8 by saying there was no "case" when they interviewed her and that as such, they had no obligation to contact law enforcement to do a proper interview despite knowing that if a case were brought, she would be the State's only witness due to being on the phone with Martin during the confrontation.

If this is acceptable behavior and this firm is not slapped by the bar for this, our banana Republic has kangaroo courts.
