“... following the sensational not-guilty verdict for George Zimmerman after he shot dead teenager Trayvon Martin.”
For starters, anyone who actually watched the trial would have been sensationalized by a guilty verdict. The state’s witnesses helped Zimmerman immensely. Secondly, this phrasing and punctuation make it sound like Trayvon was already dead when he was shot. Good grief.

Was talking with my neighbor about it tonight and he swears he not only watched every minute of the trial but taped it so he could watch it again. His conclusion - Zimmerman should have gotten the death penalty or life in prison. The neighbor is not Black and based on my brief encounters with him in the past it not dumb. He did, however, vote for Obama both times and kept referring to the “dumb women” on the jury who would have been better off to have stayed home and done “women’s work”.
