Sometimes the running dogs of the lying Leftist MSM are soooo damn stupid.

AP says when George TRIES to convince the court it was self-defence...

In America it is the prosecution that has to TRY to convince the court that it was murder—AND BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT!!!!

The Lefts’ insane desire to live under Marxist tyranny has them jumping the gun and already trying to pass off their wishful thinking as objective reporting.

Exactly. The burden of proof is on the prosecutor, not the defendant. I thing the evidence is pretty strong it was self defense. But....even if it were a “mixed bag”, then that leaves room for reasonable doubt.

Saw the CBS evening news last night. They seem to be hanging their hat on the assertion that Zimmerman could have avoided confrontation by staying in his vehicle. Perhaps so, but that is not the basis for a second degree murder charge.
