The identities of the six women who decided that Zimmerman was innocent of murder and manslaughter in the death of Trayvon Martin were sealed at the start of the racially charged trial and the court and the sheriff reminded the media after the trial that the court order is still in effect.
The roll call of the jurors sounds like a moment from a Bingo game -- B76, B37, E6, B29, E40 and B51. And during the trial the camera in the courtroom was careful to never show their faces.

>> Leave it be.
I would NEVER advocate anyone forcing or coercing them to tell their story. But... if THEY want to do it, you would never find me stopping them or advising them against it either. So if THEY don’t want to “leave it be”, well, that’s THEIR choice.
“Striking how we live in fear of black racism, this trial had all the markings of a lynch effort, yet we keep being told we are racists for minding our own business.”
Well, that’s simple Psychology 101 projection.
Thank goodness they’re collecting emails and phone conversations for when we really need them. :>)
yep .. Leave Them Be!
They all better get a CCW permit ASAP!
Love the Forests as they echo with laughter.
whispering wind. Thank You!
Reagan said “trust but verify.”
That was then.
“Don’t trust.”
Amen.
Unfortunately this seems to be the most likely outcome these days.
LOL
I f’ing would.
No way I’d tell anyone.

“Perhaps we can come up with some funny names like they did for the Asiana pilots. I bet the media would run with that.”
