I'm really starting to believe that this whole case is a setup so that when he is acquitted, there will be a riot and more support for gun control.

It just amaze me how some want to tarnish the kid image. Who care if he smoke or had a hoody on. We are talking about one particular night some ass following you in his car. Now if I'm walking and a car can keep up with me after a few feet, blocks etc etc, wouldn't you as a human being start to feel unsafe. It's human nature when any one is behind you or your inner fear to react to something or someone threatening. Zimmerman may get off but itwill catch up to him or one of his kids for what he did.
Given that - quite incredibly - the murder of 20-some kids wasn't enough to affect the influence of the gun lobby one iota, I really don't see the killing of one youth making the slightest difference. Sadly.
You have to wonder what has to happen to allow the law to go back to where it was prior to Reagan ..

Another person completely ignorant of the FACTS.
There are texts on Martin's phone asking a bud how to hit someone to break their nose.
Martin was in a local FIGHT club and had been in Several fistfights.
Martin was IN Orlando during at least his 2nd suspension from school.
Zimmy of course, is a softy wussieboy who did NONE of that.
There are other racists comments texted on Martin's phone. You'll note the ONLY racist angle to this was put forward by Martin with his "Cracker ass" comment. THOSE are the hate and ill will the Prosecution is trying to paint Zimmy with. They're looking for the twig in Zimmy's eye when there's a racist LOG in Martin's eye.
The ONLY reason those text FACTS aren't in Evidence is they can't prove beyond a shadow of a doubt Martin was the only one texting on his phone and that his badassness would be prejudicial. What they hell? If you are on trial for robbing a bank shouldn't the jury know you've robbed banks before? Who here can Swear that No One else couldn't send a text from their phone without their knowledge? (Some I'm sure but NOT the majority.)
Please don't insult my intelligence with your lack of knowledge that would make you think Martin some little alter boy.

It was a big mistake for the defense not to put Zimmerman on the stand. The jury was waiting for Zimmerman to tell his story. Now they are wondering what Zimmerman is hiding. Without Zimmerman's account of what occurred the jury will be more inclined to accept the prosecution's version of events.
Either Zimmerman would have been a terrible witnesses (Shifty? Evasive? Arrogant? Aggressive?) or the defense made a huge mistake.
I still think there will be a not guilty verdict or a hung jury but the odds have dropped from 99% to 70%
There was no need for Zimmy to take the stand. The prosecution's case is already hollow without him testifying. No reason to allow him to be cross examined
Typical of America to prosecute the young black males as the suspects, even when they are the victims.
THIS is what's typical in America!
I don't recall race being brought up by anyone but Martin supporters. I have yet to hear anyone in the Zimmerman camp refer to Martin in a negative way based on his race.
The "race card" if there is one, has been being played since the beginning by those who wish to conclude that "Zimmerman must have murdered Treyvon Martin because he's black".
Maybe just MAYBE, Saptech, America (as you say) is prosecuting Treyvon Martin because we won't be blinded by the MSM's influence as to how this incident went down?!?!
Whoever heard of a "bloodthirsty murderer" itching to kill, calling police about a suspicious looking stranger in a neighborhood that's been plagued with break ins and burglaries? Then gives police a detailed account of the stranger's movements through the neighborhood so they can locate him when they arrive? Then after "murdering" the stranger, stays at the crime scene asking neighbors to call police, not caring if he's caught? Then passes a lie detector test verifying that he acted in self defense? In the annals of crime, can anyone provide an example of such a murderer?
I have yet to hear ANYONE in the court of public opinion, indict this kid because of his race! Just stop it now!!!!
Essentially, George Zimmerman’s defense is, I saw a young Black man. I decided he was a criminal. I followed him, confronted him. And I shot him. What’s the problem?
There’s very little question as to who precipitated all of the action, even though there’s question in Zimmerman’s mind. In a national TV news interview where Zimmerman said he wouldn’t change anything from that fateful night.
In other words, he feels everything he did is right, and this case is about whether this society is going to endorse that.
