A near majority agree with the verdict and despite the hoopla a minority of Americans have been following the case. In fact even a bare majority of African-Americans followed the case.

And I bet the ones out there on the streets, the ones making the most noise, didn't spend more than a half hour watching the trial, let alone most it all of it.

Zimmerman should have never been tried for murder, under stand your ground, you can stalk someone, threaten them, get into a fight, and if you "feel" they might hurt you, you can kill them

Legally Zimmerman was not guilty of murder, but he sure was guilty of involuntary manslaughter, DA effed up.

Wow, another one agrees? Sorry I forgot all jurors must agree then they can reach a verdict. It's not an election.

Ummmm...this was an ALTERNATE...you know, the ones who don't get to vote and are not part of the deliberations. So, yeah, kind of matters.

My advice...read the entire post and understand it before you are snarky. Generally results in you looking better.

The only people who don't agree are people who cannot think rationally. They are using and being driven by PURE emotion. The facts were not there to charge Zimmerman, let alone convict him. And of course, according to all these people who say Zimmerman should have been convicted, NO AMOUNT of evidence will dissuade them otherwise.

Zimmerman is innocent. The jury rendered their verdict. He cannot be retried for murder, manslaughter, etc.

Time too move on to something these people CAN do something about.

I have a coworker who says Martin was too young to defend himself on Tuesday and then today at work declared that she was an adult at 17 and fully able to stand up to her own mother. And she is the one in the office declaring that she can't wait until Zimmerman is killed and that Martin's civil rights were violated because he was killed and she is checking CNN every morning to see when Zimmerman's civil rights trial is starting (not seeing that in his future).

I have known for a while that she was loud and uneducated and going off of pure emotion...but I learned how totally ruled by pure emotion these people are when she actually declared that she was an adult at 17 but Martin is a child. Just wow.

Your first two sentences, I'm sure someone said the same thing about the OJ and Casey Anthony case.
