Unfortunately, thanks to the "race baiting" media and professional race baiters like our "Race Baiter in Chief", Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, he will never really be a FREE man. He will live the rest of his life with a bullseye on his body. He was tried and convicted by the press. His life was publicly threatened, bounties were openly placed on his head by the New Black Panthers and our very own Eric Holder helped to purchase the gasoline that was thrown onto this racial fire with our tax dollars! I am ashamed of how racially divided our nation has become. You can blame the "media" you can blame all of the paid race card opportunists, but in the end....political correctness has allowed this to happen. Stop being afraid to stand up when someone calls you a racist and you are NOT! Stop being afraid to call out someone who tries to label you or shame you for not agreeing with another person based on principle and don't allow them to use race as an excuse to attack you when it has nothing to do with your disagreement. Silence is consent. Political correctness will destroy our society only if we allow it to...
SANFORD, Fla.–George Zimmerman, the man accused of murdering Trayvon Martin, was found not guilty of second-degree murder and manslaughter on Saturday.
The verdict is the culmination of a case that captured the nation’s attention and will undoubtedly be imprinted in America’s history. The not guilty verdict means the jury of six women found that Zimmerman justifiably used deadly force and reasonably believed that such force was “necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm” to himself — Florida’s definition of self-defense.
Zimmerman showed no emotion as the verdict was read. After the verdict was read, he smiled slightly and shook hands with one of his lawyers.
The women decided Zimmerman didn’t “intentionally commit an act or acts that caused death” or demonstrate a “depraved mind without regard for human life” –Florida’s definitions of manslaughter and second degree murder, respectively.
“It means there was reasonable doubt,” said Susan Constantine, a jury consultant and body language expert who attended Zimmerman’s trial regularly. “They just could not put the pieces together.”
