This particular case did not start with the shooting. It started with the Robbery, and it's disingenuous to say otherwise. While I agree with some things this guy says overall in America, and agree with the overall thought that there is racism involved in some Police actions and sentencing in America, there is no evidence that is the case in this incident. By all accounts, Officer Wilson was a good cop and a decent man and is being railroaded here as a representative for all the actual racist cops in America. It's disgusting and it's lazy.

The only thing they have in common is the shooter felt his life was in danger hence the reason they will both walk.

Zimmerman caused his problem and his incident, Wilson did not. I hope Wilson walks, and I am sorry Zimmerman did.

All the matters is what the jury thought. In the Zimmerman case, you are wrong says a jury of his peers. Case closed.

Yea, that was a retarded comment. You can say Trayvon felt his life was in danger because of this fat stalker. Zimmerman instigated, Trayvon responded like many of us would, and then got killed because of it. These situations are not remotely similar.

A jury agreed with me. You are wrong. Let it go. The case is over.

You lose, you get nothing.

Actually this is what one of the jury members said...

"You can't put the man in jail even though in our hearts we felt he was guilty,"

And Zimmerman is a free man as he should be.

That's fine, according to Florida law he is. Even though the jury still felt he was guilty. Much different than your attempt to make it a black and white case.

Johny Cochrane says Hello from down below. Jury system is sometimes flawed and gets it wrong. That is a Stone Cold fact.

The Central Park 5 in NYC they got it wrong. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/20/n...r-case-are-to-settle-suit-for-40-million.html
It seems like every year or so lately we hear about some guy who was improperly convicted and has to be released from jail because of erroneous conviction. It happens both ways.

Apples and oranges Guesser. You're talking about cases where people were improperly convicted because of shoddy police work, bad witness accounts or any number of different things that can put an innocent man in jail for life.

In the Zimmerman/TM case, we know the players and the evidence is clear. Just because you don't like the jury's verdict, don't compare it to an erroneous conviction case. Not the same thing at all.

Well according to one of the jurors, she says they thought in their hearts he was guilty but the way the law is structured in Florida, they agreed it didn't meet those parameters. That's a far stretch from your claim that the jury thinks he was an innocent victim. Not even close to this case.
