It is as if they are covering Z even regarding his sources of income once he is found not guilty. They may not be such bad fellers after all.

In all seriousness it looks like this really is a “show trial”, but not in the way everyone is seeing it. The state is. The state and judge KNOW he is innocent but were forced, politically, to try him, and now they are doing what the Eight Men Out did, but with nobler motivation.

It really is a bizarre trial.

I wonder if they will now leave Zimmerman off the stand since they have already heard his words.

And when the President of the United States inserted himself into this, it was just over top, as he was clearly attempting to sway opinion and hang Z in the public square, before the trial ever started..

Obama should have never done this and his motives for doing so could not be any clearer.
