I'm glad Zimmerman has been acquitted. Remember, he's been acquitted not necessarily because the jurors thought he was innocent, but because there can't be any reasonable doubt of his guilt.
The state cocked this up and let it become a circus. This man should not have been in the dock in the first place. I was 50/50 until the Defense summed up, the picture of Zimmerman taking immediately after the incident was more than enough to avoid charges, not just under stand your ground, but also self defense.
If a big fat black man had done the same to a skinny white teen do you genuinely believe the outcome would of been the same?

Yes, I believe if an African American insurance underwriter that was attacked by an athletic Hispanic youth and received the injuries Zimmerman received before firing his weapon, I believe he wouldn't have faced trial. The only reason Zimmerman was brought to trial was because of the racial profiles - racial profiling, which the media can't stop harping on about, works both ways.
I've been off for the past fortnight and watched the trial in its entirety, for me, it's a tragedy Martin died but a travesty Zimmeran faced trial.
