Hay 6 idiots in Florida! Thanks a big hefty freakin' load!
Hello, everyone, it's been a long time since I started a thread here, but THIS is worth it.
For the longest time, my Sig line was "George Zimmerman needs to go to jail for a long time!!!!!" Last night, I changed it to "George Zimmerman = the new O J Simpson!!!!!" because like OJ, George Zimmerman just got away with murder. President Obama once said that if he had a son, he'd look like Trayvon Martin. If you don't remember the rightist outrage after that, just think of the rightist outrage exhibited after President Obama says ANYTHING! I do have a son. His name is Jonathan. He is 13 years old and all that the countless numbnut, numbskull, gun nut RWNJs with very likely very tiny penises that they need very large guns to make up for like George Zimmerman will see is the black skin that he wears. They will not see the big heart, the sense of humor, the intelligence, compassion and sensitivity that his black skin contains. They, like George Zimmerman, will only see the kid whom they'll consider to be a "troublemaker" due to his unforgivable blackness. Yesterday, 6 asses in Florida looked at a simple set of facts and they then added 2 + 2 and came up with 3. George Zimmerman was told not to follow and not to engage Trayvon Martin.. He got out of his car and confronted, scuffled with, lost to and killed Trayvon Martin. 6 idiots in Florida allowed George Zimmerman's lawyers to put Trayvon Martin on trial. They not only let Zimmerman off for his crime, but they criminalized black teenagers going out for snacks. My son is unapologetically black as his mother and I have taught him to be. About 10 days ago, we took him out to get his ear pierced. He (with a few extra $$$ from dad) also got himself a nice pair of shades and a baseball cap. My wife took a picture of him in his new getup that is now the wallpaper on my phone. I look at that picture of my son and I see a very handsome young man that reminds many of our family of a young Denzil Washington. The thought that went through my mind at the time however, is that somewhere in Florida, George Zimmerman's trigger finger is itching. Thank you 6 idiots in Florida. For the rest of our lives, my wife and I are going to have to worry about our son when he goes to the beach. We'll have to worry abour him when he walks to the ice cream or pizza shop. We'll have to worry about him when he goes to his friends' house to hang out & play X-Box. Hell, because of you 6 idiots in Florida, we may even have to worry about him walking to & from school. Our loving, compassionate funny and smart son now has a target sign on his back thanks to you 6 Florida idiots. Just like, I'm sure, Trayvon's parents, we frequently want to throttle our son. Unlike YOUR conclusions, 6 idiots in Florida, our son, like(I'm sure) Trayvon, often does careless and stupid things that make us want to tear our hair out. NONE of these things is a capital offense, but YOU 6 idiots in Florida just made it so. For the rest of our lives, my wife and I will have to worry about racist gun nuts like George Zimmerman going hunting because their idol, Wayne LaPierre, put the idea that they're "good guys with guns" into their soft and otherwise empty little heads. Because of you 6 idiots in Florida, they now believe that they can get away with murder. Because of you 6 idiots in Florida, killing the son that we treasure beyond all possible means of measurement, is something that the gun nuts can now do with impunity. Thank you very friggin' much, 6 idiots in Florida!!!!! PEACE!

21. People who try to defend what is unreasonable as "reasonable" are full of shit.
I don't really like to use the term "idiots" so I won't.
Zimmerman's story wasn't remotely reasonable. There is no "reasonable doubt" that he did NOT have to use lethal force to protect himself. There is no "reasonable doubt" that things could not have happened the way he said they did. So, why would he make up a story? The ONLY "reasonable" reason for Zimmerman to falsify his story was to make it compatible with "self-defense". There is no "reasonable doubt" that he shot Martin in an act that was not justifiable self defense. |

Because the state didn't have dick for testimony and defense provided many unrelated people with no vested interest in either party that provided reasonable doubt. How you came to your "objective" conclusion is beyond me, but you should have testified.

52. I've posted this before....but I think it bears repeating:
When I researched the Florida Law I found that...
The plea of Self-defense requires that the Defense prove every element of self-defense by a preponderance of evidence, a low standard of proof... on the other hand, To counter the defense, the prosecution must disprove the claim beyond a reasonable doubt....meaning it the the highest level of proof required. I posted here on the day of the Prosecution's closing argument that the presentation of their case was inept. They failed miserably to attack, point by point, the evidence that the defense presented and allowed them to present and push (through the animanted reinactiment) a plausible theory that they never even bothered to dispute. In a pure legal sense, the jury acted properly. Was it justice? In my opinion no. No it was not |

104. You did a bad job of researching Florida law.
There is no "preponderance" standard applicable to the defense in Florida. None. The defense has the burden of "going forward" (also known as the burden of production). Its a very low threshold. Even a "flimsy" showing of evidence that might support self defense is sufficient to get the issue to the jury. There is no burden on the defense to show the truthfulness of their claim; rather, the burden of proof is on the state to persuade the jury beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant has not established self defense.

You may not like the outcome, but the Jury took the time to analyse the facts, and they could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt.
You can blame the prosecution, but don't blame the jury. They could only work with what they were given. |

However, the point of my post, ie, what you consider a "shitty assunption" was MY concern for the safety of MY son. I hope that nobody is ever so cynical about your concern for your child.

114. For a lot of Zimmerman apologists
the issue isn't about race so much as it is about guns and the right to do anything you want with them. And for their cause they'll ignore the race factor and play up the "reasonable doubt" factor.
Anybody can see that solving it with a gun was way overkill in this case. Anybody can see that Zimmerman was out of control. Anybody can see that Zimmerman was acting out of racism and hate. Anybody can see that this trial was stacked against justice for Trayvon. Guns won here. |

88. I'm not a lawyer, but I thought that I might go to law school
after college. I bought a book called, Legal Reasoning, and read it in order to help me make up my mind about applying to law school. What that book taught me was that 'legal reasoning' was the opposite of common sense. I could never change my concept of common sense to its opposite. My head hurt as I read that book because it was so incomprehensible.
I've served on a couple of juries and I have concluded that the 'jury instructions' are given so that juries won't use common sense when deciding the case. 'Jury instructions' tell juries how they must think about what the evidence shows, not what their gut instinct tells them about what the evidence shows. 'Jury instructions' is one of the problems in our judicial system. I wish that when people are selected for juries that they would do some basic research about the jury system and how, if they want to, can use their common sense reasoning when deliberating a case. |

118. Really?
Check out this post from Kablooie:
Wow! It sounds like the JUDGE, not the jury, may have freed Zimmerman. Florida law states that a defendant cannot claim self-defense if he "initially provokes the use of force against himself". This clause of the law was deliberately withheld from the jury in the instructions from the judge. The jurors were instructed to consider the situation only after the scuffle started and were not able to include the fact that Zimmerman tracked down Martin. (Which seems to me to be the primary aspect of the whole situation.) If they had, Zimmerman might have been considered the aggressor and therefore his whole self defense argument would have been moot and he would have gone to jail. The defense lawyer argued to keep this clause of the law out of the instructions. The prosecution argued the other way and the defense won, thereby insuring a Zimmerman victory. It's a fairly convoluted set of arguments but you can read the details of this decision and why it was made here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/alafair-burke/george-zimmerman-jury-instructions_b_3596685.html 24 28 replies, 685 views Thread infoBookmark this threadTrash this thread |

119. It was withheld because the prosecution offered no evidence that Zimmerman engaged in any action
that would constitute "provocation" as that term has been interpreted and applied by the courts in Florida. There would be no point in offering the instruction about actual use of force or the making of an actual threat of force on the part of Zimmerman given that the state had no alleged or offered any evidence that Zimmerman had actually used or actually threatened the use of force against him. If Zimmerman had not proffered any evidence whatsoever to support a self defense claim, the judge could have refused to include that instruuction as well. But Zimmerman's defense did proffer evidence that, if taken as true and viewed in the light most favorable to Zimmerman, could support self defense. And thus the court was required by law to include that instruction.

23. You can blame the cops who f'ed up the evidence and failed to treat the area as a crime
scene. Poor little Zimi couldn't take his ass beating (from a boy) like a man! Trayvon was fighting for his life from this man with a gun that was following him. We just don't know enough about those final minutes to know what really happened, and for that reSon i can understand the jurys decision. i dont have to like it though.
The jury should have been more racially diverse as well as sexually diverse. I bet the Defense had studies showing women would be their best jurors since they obviously did not strike any in favor of a man. I guess men felt that poor fat little Georgie was a wimp and would not have sympathy for him, while the women would, who knows? |

25. I'll agree with that.
Of course if the defense thought all women would help their case, then couldn't the prosecution have determined that all men would help their case? If so, they could have struck a few women jurors to get a few men on the trial.

59. I think you're correct here, roguevalley. His "sentence" as it were - is having to return to
the civilian population. Maybe if he stays in his little insular conservative community he won't have to deal with this much (at least if what I've heard about that community's general political mindset is true). But across the country, seems to me anyway, the mindset may not always be as insular. I'm in California. He's as guilty as sin, to me, and to everybody else around me - in MY community. Heck, even my distressingly conservative best friend, who lives in a southern state and believes strongly in gun freedoms, came out here to visit recently and hissed angrily under her breath - "he SHOT that child!" I'm sorry - I saw the case laid out, and it just seemed utterly open-and-shut. Total and absolute and undebatable MURDER. All the fancy defense talk or references to the law and the jury and everything else - does NOT change that FACT.
What this outcome says - is just so distressing, I can hardly articulate how I feel about this. This is heartbreaking, discouraging, stunning, staggering, dumbfounding. The only sense of triumph I feel is from the reaction - all those fucking yahoos and Pox Noise believers and CONS with their stupid dire warnings about how this community was going to riot and disrupt, and they did nothing of the kind. They did NOTHING of the kind. They remained dignified and non-confrontational. Frankly, I'd expected that. And I'm very proud of them. I get a renewed sense of appreciation of Melissa Harris-Perry's recollection of how her father signed off on cards to her - "the struggle continues."

32. Trayvon Martin was 'lynched' by a self-appointed vigilante. (I put 'lynched' in
quote marks to signify that I am using the term in its metaphoric, rather than literal, sense.)
IMO, then, this jury ruled lynching permissible, an action with which the Sanford Police Department had long ago signified its agreement. I'm led, ineluctably, to conclude that GZ is not the only villain of this piece. To his villainy must be added that of 'neighborhood watch' programs that allow such self-appointed vigilantism and police departments whose actions (e.g., testing Martin's corpse for drugs but not testing Zimmerman for drugs) signify their institutional racism far more powerfully than any verbal statements of racial ill will ever could. |

That's not the job of a jury, nor should it be. The law should be made by elected officials, and overseen by judges.
Yes the law in this case sucks, but the jury is supposed to come to a verdict on the merits of the case based on the presented evidence and law at the time of the act, not what is "right" however that would be defined. There are plenty of people who would be just as outraged as you are if George Zimmerman had been convicted because they are convinced that the killing was justified. |

It's beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman could have locked his doors and waited for the police to arrive. It's beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman was in contact with the police by cell phone. It's beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman had a history of zealotry. It's beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman was fixated on tracking Travon. It's beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman had a loaded gun. It's beyond a reasonable doubt that Travon was in contact with a friend by cell phone. It's beyond a reasonable doubt that Travon was trying to get away from Zimmerman.

I'm sure that they are experienced enough to know that it would be very difficult to prove M2.

I'd read very recently that this is starting to be true - wherein there's less funding among other things - for prosecutors. There's not the funding for assistants and legal staff. Private defense attorneys paid for by clients and their supporters will have the luxury of plenty of funding. They'll have everything they need, the support, the tools, the research, the help with due diligence. And there won't be an equal share on of that on the other side.

50. While I don't like the Verdict, I understand it from
a legal perspective. No one but Z knows if Trayvon tried to grab the gun to protect himself from this crazy man that was following him. If he did then it is self defense for Z to shoot him. That is reasonable doubt.
The problem for me is that there is no punishment (other than he better have a gun now at all times for the rest of his life) for all of his conduct that led to Travon's death. If he hadn't been such a racist douche bag, Trayvon would still be alive. Also, the cops played a role by not preserving the scene and the evidence b/c they did not treat him as a suspect! Sad day in America, land of the not so free anymore! |

94. You, sir, imo, have shown much restraint in not calling these "6 (asses) idiots" what you really
would like to call them. Your indictment rightfully extends to all who foster the mindset and worldview that this horrific crime, this senseless fatal wounding of a unarmed child with a handgun, were, in effect, a justifiable homicide. A pox will surely come to roost on those who revel and delight in such wickedness.

101. It's not just the 6 idiots in FL
It's also all those police that lied on the witness stand. Everyone of the defense witnesses was prejudice, had something to gain or was a friend. Tryvon had very little help.

125. Up until the verdict
They were described as 6 woman, five of them mothers.
Now they are idiots and that's the nicest insult they are getting. Well at least we'll have a woman president soon. What's found to happen when she starts bombing Syria? |
