Good. I hope she writes a book and makes lots of money because after the vicious race mongers like Sharpton and his racist kind get through with the jurors they're going to need to leave the country.

I find it quite interesting that the jury of the Rodney King case and the Zimmerman/Martin case will have to conceal their identity for the rest of their lives ... but the OJ Simpson jury can show their faces publicly without fearing for their lives. This jury was tried and convicted of extreme racism -- worthy of violent death in many minds -- the instant the verdict "not guilty" was read.

End of the day, this whole case is a series of unfortunate events. Had Trayvon wrestled the gun away from George and shot him, there wouldn't be enough evidence to convict him either ... but there would undoubtedly be a public outcry for that "not guilty" as well. Racial tensions in America are so pathetic!! How in the world did the amount of melanin in a person's skin, or lack thereof, start mattering so much??

I didn't say she was told to say that. I said she testified that that's the way people speak in her culture. So when the juror said the way "they" talk, she was referring to that exchange- the one where Bernie had Rachel testify to how people talk in their culture.

Did you watch the trial? On redirect, Bernie started asking her about languages spoken in her house, etc. And during that attempt to rehabilitate her, he asked her if creepy ass cracker was the way people speak in her culture, and she said yes.

That testimony starts at 5:30 on this video:

I love the fact that the juror said that race didn't play a factor in the shooting and that George would've reacted the same way if the person had been white or hispanic or asian. Which is the truth! The fact that so many people think that the incident was racially-motivated goes to show how the media has manipulated and brainwashed the masses!

Is this the same juror that has changed her mind and said she won't write a book due to fear for her safety?

How can anyone say that? No one knows what would have happened in different circumstances, because the circumstances were what they were!

People who hadn't fallen for the PR lies were able to see the case objectively. And they did it without any of the character evidence about Trayvon being introduced. So it wasn't a case of smearing the victim.

What was funny to me was that the prosecution put on the exact case that Team Trayvon had wanting. Blood flow, Zimmerman's lies, "He didn't know the STREET NAMES!" and all the other absurdities that we have heard here that people were so sure would convict him.

We all got to see how ridiculous it looked in court and how the witnesses and actual evidence supported self defense.

I guess that anyone who agrees with you - automatically sees the case 'objectively'?

Appears at least half of America disagrees.

He could probably sell that gun to some racist with lots of money.

Please.

Most of the people who don't agree w/ the verdict believe the lies that the MSM has fed them. They spew the false talking points whenever they get their 15 seconds of fame in on the street interviews.

I think the majority of the country knows that the jury got it right. It's the vocal minority that makes people think otherwise.
