Gov. Cuomo says he understands the outrage over the weekend acquittal of George Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin.

"We have a system and we follow the system and that's what we've done here," Cuomo said during an appearance on Long Island.

"I think I share the outrage at the apparent travesty of justice, but that is the system that we have," Cuomo said.

"I understand the outrage and the feeling that the system failed in this case."

What is unjust is an idiot Governor that doesn’t know the evidence proclaiming someone to be guilty. So much for the idiot Governor knowing the law, the Constitution, our the founding concepts of this nation.

Why don’t these media tools press for more than sound bites? How about “What do you mean by travesty, Governor?” Are you questioning the integrity of the jury? Are you questioning the laws of the State of Florida? What specific facts about the case can you share with us to support your opinion?”

You know, it strikes me that nearly every public person from politics to entertainment feels compelled to makes similar statements.

I think it stems from needing to be seen as a higher thinker, morally righteous and present a public image that can’t be assailed.

It’s self serving and ignores the facts...

The real "travesty" was when New Yorkers elected this asshole to public office.

"Democrats want their own set of laws."

They've already got them. Cuomo faced no Congressional investigations for a sexual harrassment complaint against him, or the $59 Billion that went missing while he was HUD director.

Everyone who is not black should be frightened as hell over what this government is doing to GZ. EVERYONE.

Kinda reminds you of Rome, doesn't it? Whereas the mob decides who lives and dies in the Colosseum and the Emperor makes it happen... bread & circuses people, bread & circuses

Then why don't you go and find out the truth for yourself before you say anything else.

You are apparently uninformed.

No the verdict was not a travesty of "Justice." The travesty was filing the case against Zimmerman. The travesty against Zimmerman continued when the corrupt judge did not dismiss the criminal complaint.

Lastly, Trayvon got his "Justice" on the night he assaulted Zimmerman.

Status Cuomo is a travesty in his own right.

Andrew Cuomo is a classic liberal hypocrite. He got elected to public office mostly due to his family name (a big deal in leftist New Yawk) and, like the rest of the socialist lemmings, including the Hollywood airheads, is jumping on the 'lynch Zimmerman' bandwagon, thinking this identifies him as a lover of 'justice' and defender of the downtrodden - or something like that. It's all a big load of stinking BS.

Any sentient person who paid event minimal attention to the televised trial of George Zimmerman could see that the state prosecutor had no real case against him and that the left-wing narrative: Zimmerman 'stalked' Travon Martin, who was a frail 12-year old, and shot him to death while laughing fiendishly as the angelic Travon died - was absolute nonsense.

The truth came out at the trial for all to see. Travon Martin was a six-footer, well built, who liked to fight. He used marijuana, stole and talked trash, just like any ghetto 'gangsta' wannabe. He was very likely casing the neighborhood when Zimmerman spotted him and called the local police dispatch desk (not 911) to report Martin. Zimmerman gave a description of Martin and when asked by the dispatcher what the guys race was, Zimmerman replied "I think he's black".

As we all now know, Martin approached Zimmerman, asked why he (Zimmerman) was following him (Martin) then sucker-punched Zimmerman and was beating him and bashing his head into the concrete pavement while Zimmerman shouted for help, to no avail. Zimmerman, who was armed, managed to pull the trigger of his gun (inside his jacket) and the shot hit Martin's heart and killed him. George Zimmermam waited for the police to arrive and cooperated fully in the subsequent investigation and the Sanford police found no cause to arrest Zimmerman, deeming the shooting an act f self defense.... which it clearly was.

Enter the race pimps and the leftmedia, assuming they had the perfect case to push the lie that whites routinely 'stalked' blacks and murdered them just for 'being black'. An outrageous lie and rank insult to white people but a lie the media feeds on and that the race pimps are eager to keep alive.

The Zimmerman trial was strictly a politically motivated event and the jury, God bless them, reached the only logical verdict possible. Zimmerman was no racist and Travon Martin was far from the angel he was originally purported to be by the heavily biased media. Martin's death was tragic but something that had no real basis in race, at least on the part of George Zimmerman. Travon Martin's calling Zimmerman 'a cracker' indicates that he saw it differently, but of course, we'll never know so that will remain pure speculation. In any case, Cuomo is a leftist phony and his 'outrage' is all for show. The one who should be outraged is George Zimmerman for being vilified and put through the court system so black mobs could be pacified and know-nothing fools like Andrew Cuomo can fake all kinds of conniptions over what the majority of Americans know full well was a just verdict.
