Does anybody else suspect the prosecution was attempting to throw the case with that inexplicable ‘*paid-for* skittles and tea’ comment? Are they trying to open the door for some local prosecutions? Why on earth did he say that, anyway? Was he expecting MOM to bring up theft in the close?
They assumed the jury needed to know Martin paid for his goodies, just in case the mostly white jury was racist.
You know, Martin paid for that stuff, he had money...so why would he be casing places and appear suspicious? Why it was because Zimmerman was racist, of course.
I just figured the prosecution was/is racist. That’s how I usually see the people wanting to push race/racism all the time.
Sort of along the lines of the old childhood saying:
I’m rubber, you’re glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you.
And a hearty neener neener for good measure! :p
