A special prosecutor was appointed because the local prosecutor found it to be a ligit self defense shooting. The grand jury was totally bypassed.
Then, IMO, the DOJ should definitely conduct a Civil Rights Investigation, to determine if GZ's Civil Rights were violated by non-compliance with the Fifth Amendment requirement for a Grand Jury Indictment!
Sorry, but I consider myself an "everyday American", and IMO the trial should have never taken place.
BUT, once the prosecution started, it became very clear that self defense was the correct call.
Yes, GZ killed TM, and YES, IMO, he was justified in doing so.
The jury agreed.
End of story.
Given the circumstances, I would have done the same thing.
Maybe someone close to you can be fortunate enough to be in the same position as Trayvon was

I know you didn't speak to me, but I once lost a cousin and my best friend due to almost identical circumstances. He was a toughie, or so he thought, and got shot trying to prove something. Dead, age 19.
No charges were filed against the shooter. It was self defense and everyone with an IQ over 2 knew it.
Now you understand? Have you forgotten here in the United States of America a person is innocent until proven guilty.... It takes a warped mind to twist that into not guilty does not = innocent....
I think that it is interesting that the majority of white people feel this way now but when the O.J verdict came out it was a different story and had no objective of his complict in-laws going after his money

So why is this case so different?
Newsflash: This isn't about OJ. It's the Zimmerman/Martin thing. Hard to believe people are still stewing about OJ. There's ZERO comparison.

Maybe someday, someone close to you can be fortunate enough to be in in the same position as George Zimmerman
