“With seemingly every black person and his/her uncle and aunt piling on for Trayvon, surely the Martin family is not doing too shabbily at this juncture.”
Of course you are right. But if Zimmerman gets more donations to help him and his family, I’ll wager that the judge and prosecutor will find a way to deny him the use of it. This poor man is already tried and convicted. In this PC world in which we now live; law-abiding citizens are at a distinct disadvantage.
Sounds like a gaggle of liberals, all of them, who are outright incensed that people would see enough injustice in how George was treated to help him foot the bills that resulted (including, as now seems to be clear, at least some personal expenses he can’t meet because he’s in a jail, not working a job).
In the long term the other shoe is bound to fall, and the whole group shamed. People who believe they can get away with something so egregious usually have little self control in other areas and, like Eliot Spitzer’s own prostitute usage, have Achilles’ heels. It simply remains to find out, or by God’s providence become exposed, what those are.
