You didn't. You've figured out the truth.

As I said, you've figured out the truth.

Maybe you would, but you can't project your decision process onto others.

I suspect anyone involved in a shooting would decide to hide behind their lawyer if that were possible. I would certainly go to a lawyer before the police.

A kid was shot to death by an adult. That fact alone should be enough for you, but when you start a thread like this....

Some of the other idiots are paid for at least attempting to be intelligent. Obama grandstanding and Jackson with his "I'll pass judgement before I know anything" typical position are actually an embarrassment.
I shouldn't be surprised by your stance.

And Zimmerman is white in color with a white last name. Why do you want him described as a Latino in news reports? Is it necessary, in your opinion, to now include ethnicity in reporting the news?

Well, if his defense lawyer speaks out in his defense, that settles it. Surely that has never happened before.

OP, When facing child exploitation charges, Michael Jacksons lawyer proclaimed his innopcence. So to be consistent, did you proclaim MJ's innocence immediately? (sar)

All lawyers do this stuff. Its' a big so what.

What about cell phone records showing Zimmerman's location being near his vehicle?

The POTUS shooting of his mouth wont help the facts come out any quicker...

I love how certain minority communities and celebrities immediately start vigils, marches and put out 'bounty's for capture' on incidents. Why not let investigators do their jobs first???
