The most dramatic moment yet of the George Zimmerman trial yet occurred during the defense's closing argument Friday morning, when attorney Mark O'Mara paused for four minutes to illustrate a long gap in the prosecution's timeline of events.

Good point.
Some facts about the case;
Mortality from a severe beating is as high as 55%. Thus Zimmerman was justified if he believed his life was in danger.
Theres the legal precedence which a case like this could set. If Zimmerman is convicted, it will harm EVERYONES right to take measures to protect themselves and to self-defense. If hes convicted, then thugs will feel they have a right to go around beating up people, knowing that people will be afraid to use lethal force to defend themselves.
If the law does little to protect the victim who uses deadly force for self-defense and you hurt or kill someone you must PROVE that you were in deadly danger of your life in court. And the cost of defending yourself will destroy you financially.
The alternative that should be in their minds is that one of their loved ones could be confronted by another of Obama’s sons.
Can you imagine having a full time job of sitting in a jury box every day, all day long, and listening to people like Rachel Jenteal?
I almost fell off my chair when he opened up with that... and in my head I finished the sentence
you must “listen to your heart... and NOT your head or the evidence”.
And I hope those women identify with the victim of the home invasion.
I am a woman and I guess I am supposed to be offended but I am not. I have a GREAT sense of direction - but even then - I don’t think I know anyone who lives in a subdivision - especially near the front, who necessarily knows every street name and address.
In fact, in my experience, ESPECIALLY other women use Landmarks as opposed to street names when giving directions - turn at the Walmart... third light after the Wegmans, after the house with the swing on the front porch..
And I do not know the ages, BUT my mom’s two best friends cannot remember that they called 10 minutes earlier and called back :^0
My guess is that Zimmerman is screwed.
Liberal dogma has effectively captured and brainwashed most Americans. Hence, law, truth, justice and facts will be overriden by emotionalism and symbolism.
Indeed, the prosecution case rests on emotion.
Hence, hung jury or Zimmerman conviction most likely scenarios.
I’ve said before that if Zimmerman’s name had been Rodriguez the case never would have made it out of Seminole County.
I’d like to give Mr. Guy a gun and drop him off in the bad part of town in the middle of the night. Then have a black guy in a hoodie come up and knock the crap out of him. We’d find out if he’d use that gun or if he would ask the guy to wait until the cops arrive.
By the way, I doubt if Mr. Guy has ever been in the bad part of town.
Exactly, when the cop asked if i was going to press charges I said yes and he asked “over a case of water?” and i looked right at this kid and i mean kid and said “It’s the principal!” they kinda forget that.
and yes there are good ones but there hands are so tied they can’t do anything.
look at the stupid law that was just passed in NY. And I have 2 brothers who are cops there and they tell me it’s a joke. My brother said he will shoot the first superior who tells him to turn on the people.
She got her degree at the South Texas School of Law. Back many years ago when I was considering law school, several lawyers told me I could go to the South Texas School of Law and be accepted on the same day.
Zimmerman’s attorneys made the case simple to those jurors. Mark was trying to reach out to those females/to those moms by speaking calming. The hope now is that those women understand the law; to apply the law to the incident of George making the ultimate decision to act in self defense. They should not penalize nor judge him for the boy’s death/parents being sad.
Focus on the threat, of that incident. There was no other threat shown from evidence that George Zimmerman had made a threat to Trayvon. To me, beyond the prior phone calls to the 9-11 etc., it is irrelevant because Zimmerman had no other actions shown as a threat.
If they overlook the law, it could be a long weekend/then we will have a notion they are thinking with emotional reasoning or as a uniformed person(s)
lol
Let the concentrated Democrat parasite nests ("cities") burn to the ground from coast to coast while the animals loot each other. The reality is, very few of the animals give a rats ass about Trayvon or Zimmerman. Its all about an excuse to loot and grab more free stuff they did nothing to earn. The animals in every city from coast to coast are begging for an excuse - - any excuse - - to loot.

From “My Cousin Vinny “:
Judge Haller: let the record show Defense is holding up 2 fingers!
Looks like any of them could be Obama’s sons...
I’m betting the main reason he shut it down is because he refused to give Sabrina and Crump their share of the proceeds. If TrayMom doesn’t get a cut... it ain’t happening.
