"Apparently, Martin’s DNA was NOT found on Zimmerman’s gun, according to the prosecution. This bombshell was mentioned on Nancy Grace’s show, so you gotta consider the source."

Even if true, why is that a "bombshell"? So GZ pulled his gun while getting the crap beat out of him and shot the punk and there is no DNA on the handgun? That just tells me that Zimmerman pulled and shot. That is not evidence of anything.

Seriously, this is the most insane racist politically motivated trial I have seen in my 63 years. And I'm one of the few who thought the officers beating Rodney King should have been found guilty.

Funny you should mention that, I’m right in the middle of a book written by the National Guard commander during the King riots. Actually, the vast majority of Angelinos favored conviction. The local media worked very hard to tell the public a one-sided story, including showing the edited version of the “beating” over and over.

I was one of the few civilians who believed the officers’ behavior was within policy, though inept, and have a clear memory of being “the lone ranger”.

The King case was actually the local media finally finding a test case for their ten year long anti-LAPD campaign. In that sense, it’s not unlike the media trying to force fit the Zimmerman case into their pre-written “Racist gun crazy white guy kills innocent teen” narrative”.
