Told ya. Justice prevails over racism. He should have never been charged -- but for racism against a "German" named Martin Zimmerman. Bad call Al Sharpton. Bad call Jesse Jackson. Bad call, Mr. President.

Stand your ground should be the law everywhere. The jury recognized the circumstantial case and did the right thing.

Just remember that this was NOT a stand your ground case, it was simple self defense.

But yep, the jury did the right thing.

Exactly. Nothing to do with stand your ground.

I'm glad to see the justice system actually worked as designed and emotions were left outside tne courtroom. I'm sure being a juror on this case was no picnic, but in the end, the Self Defense Law prevailed!

Sounds like he could/may be brought up on "some" charge on the Federal level.

http://www.freep.com/article/20130713/N ... -Zimmerman

http://nationalreport.net/obama-files-f ... on-martin/

Basically a few other things I have read say that they want Zimmerman brought up on "hate crime" or some similar charges now...
