If Zimmerman is convicted, I believe it will cast the entirety of the American “justice” system into doubt. Any normal, sensical human being can see this is a clear-cut case of self-defense. If Zimmerman is not acquitted, it will prove that the courts and juries can be “bought” with threats of violence.

On the other hand, if he’s acquitted, I won’t gain much respect for our legal system, it’s already a joke, but at least I will know that I can continue to walk this Earth without fear of prison for defending myself or my family.

You may avoid being found guilty, but you can't avoid "the ride". The new standard is "Punishment first, then the trial." Have a nice life comrade.

Perhaps... but you'd best steer clear of certain parts of town, and be alert everywhere else.

Andrew Branca writes and tweets daily from the courtroom as he watches the trial.

Many FReepers are following the trial at http://legalinsurrection.com/

Andrew has written a book concerning self defense laws across the country. I purchased a book from his blog (where he often tweets out discounts) and am looking at purchasing a couple more for friends.

Very instructive especially considering the ordeal that Zimmerman has unjustly experienced.

Unless there are repocussions against the people who brought these charges despite the evidence, I will still fear that prison may await me for defending myself or my family. I will still do it, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised if they try this again unless they are seriously slapped down.
