Ann Coulter States SYG Laws Have Nothing To Do With Zimmerman Situation

99. No.

"Therefore, it is relevant to the case. If it is being used as an "excuse" not to arrest him, then it is "relevant," whehter you beleive that excuse is bullshit or not."

Someone may CLAIM any damn thing they want, 'I shot him because the sky was purple', this would not make the sky being purple relevant, beyond the 'relevance' that the accused CLAIMED it. We'll probably have to bookmark and revisit this argument after the trial, but I am confident it will not be used successfully as a defense.

" if it will be used as part of his defense if he is ever charged"

Oh my, you finally used 'if'. I now agree. IF it is used as a defense. We both have his Attorney on record saying it will NOT, and it WILL. If/when the trial occurs, we will discover if 'SYG' is 'relevant' in this capacity at all. Not until then.

"a law that has been cited by the police"

invalid use of a plural. It was cited by the Chief of police in a press conference. It was not cited by any of the other responding officers or investigators. (of whom, recommended and filed a formal recommendation of a manslaughter charge) You may ultimately be right, but so far, you have a political creature citing the law, in a press feeding frenzy while trying to protect his department's credibility/reputation. He would have been better off simply stating the investigating officer recommended a manslaughter charge to the DA, and that further questions should be directed to the DA's office. Why he didn't do that, we can only guess.

You are using an EXTREMELY low bar of 'relevance'. Coulter, distasteful as she may be, clearly specified the TECHNICAL nature of it's irrelevance to this issue, as have other posters. You continue to ignore this. Why?
