No show of emotion can, in the end, deny what is becoming a growing reality.
But given the general failure of critical thinking, and the nature of low-information individuals that find their way onto a jury panel, perhaps a hung jury is the best we may hope for. A guilty verdict would mean a heightened press for the repeal or invalidation of “Stand Your Ground” and the “Castle Doctrine” support for self-defense. An innocent verdict would fuel the racial tensions that already exist, but this is not a black-on-white encounter, it is a black-on-Latino confrontation.
A hung jury potentially leaves either of these issues up in the air.
note the forces that have made this into a black/on white issue, they conveniently weren’t playing up zimmerman as hispanic. theywill turn it into black/white.
