That's the thing. The Sandford police department decided that Trayvon's life wasn't even worthy enough to warrant an investigation. His body laid at the Coroner's for 3 days before they contacted anyone in his family. They totally bought Zimmerman's claim of self-defense and let him walk free without any form of investigation. I find this truly disgusting.

I thought that once the Ministry of Truth told us who was guilty, the jury trial was superfluous. Didn't the president say he has the right to kill U.S. citizens if they are terrorists?
Who needs due process, jury trials, or presumption of innocence?
Why bother with laws? Congress doesn't read the law it enacts - why should we?

Thank you spell check police. If the Sanford police department was as vigilant as you, justice would have been served for Trayvon.

Only a pity that Zimmerman didn't allow little Trayvon any ounce of opportunity to prove his innocence before he pursued the child and murdered him for no reason. Certainly he will get a just trial, for this is America. But he deserves the death penalty. I am one of those who believe the punishment should meet the crime.

So you have no issue with the fact that they haven't even investigated or arrested him? Do you believe that's fair?

Zimmerman went out of his way to kill the child for no apparent reason than the color of the child's skin. The 911 tape clearly reveals Zimmerman's racial bias as he pursues the innocent kid to murder him. This is an obvious hate crime.

I hope whoever prosecutes him pursue the death penalty with as much zeal. This crime is inexcusable. Someone like Zimmerman has no value to society. He would do the world a favor if he were pushing daisies.

Actually - I am rather displeased that he has not yet been charged with a crime - but I don't believe in putting the cart before the horse either. You already have the man arrested, charged, tried, convicted, and condemned. Patience, man - and let's devoutly pray that you never find your way into a jury box!

I find it interesting that people take crimes against others in a place so different and so far away so personally. I wonder if this will become the next celebrity case?
