Like I said he's gonna get fucked on a civil case soon enough. He can't refuse to testify in that setting, plus they can cover all the things the prosecution of this case fucked up on.

True, not enough for second degree murder, but manslaughter... I think they could have at least given him manslaughter.
yeah i thought they were too aggressive in going for second degree. To me there were too many unknowns to lock the guy up for 30 years or whatever it would have been on manslaughter, but i thought it was gonna be 50/50.

inb4 Ehbs is a racist

I felt your pain brother. At least Cruz is finally signed. :mrgreen:

Plax was a bit of a distraction. I thought it was worth it to pick him back up after prison despite the off the field issues but that don't fly with Coughlin.

Yeah. But expected from the bible belt deep south region tbh.
Those deadly force/carry laws need to be challenged. They give wannabe cops like this a vigilante outlook on things. A lot of them are just itching to take advantage of it.

(oh noes is that prejudiced)

justice system runs it's course once again. this system has been tried and tested for over 200 years. i watched most of the trial and i thought it was a fair one but the prosecution was poor. in my opinion if you didnt watch the trial or really research the case then you should try to stay neutral and not let the media sway your opinion so easily. i know it's really easy to take the side of the victim in any case. the defense made it seem like zimmerman defended himself, which the jurors obviously agreed with. the majority of people who didnt know jack shit about this case took trayvon's side just because it is easy to. just look at twitter. i guarantee that 95% of people calling for zimmerman to be killed are just jumping on the bandwagon. it may be a sad outcome but just think that the prosecution and defense spent the last year or so studying and preparing for this trial. they presented their evidence and witnesses. the jury observed for two weeks and came to their verdict today. a court is a place for logic and law, emotion has no place in a courtroom.

all we can hope is this shit doesn't happen again, because one person is dead and the other's life is ruined.

come on man you're better than that. you can't just generalize a whole region. i live in the "bible belt" and there are a lot of just and smart people here. hell florida is probably one of the least "south" states in the south if you know what i mean.

You're right, and I'm not talking negative about the people for the most part, just the laws on the books coming from the southern region and its legal track record. Like what's going on with abortion stuff in Texas now, which is also one of the 'least south' states in comparison to some others, but still it is mostly concentrated to that region as far as the laws & politics go. Something like this would be handled a lot differently in other regions.

I don't think he should fry (which still happens in FL), but getting off clean is a bit fucked. I suppose it's lack of evidence as has been mentioned. IMO manslaughter is more appropriate a charge than murder. I don't think he set out to kill anyone, but it happened and it didn't have to.

Meanwhile: Marissa Alexander of Jacksonville, Fla., received a 20-years prison sentence, Friday, May 11, 2012, for firing warning shots against her allegedly abusive husband. The judge rejected a defense under Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law.

It's ironic that Mississippi is the most conservative and most religious of all 50 states, and at the same time is the poorest, least literate, and least prosperous of all 50 states.

lets be real though, civil suits are worthless... just take the martin luther king jr. civil suit for example, where they found the memphis police and federal agencies guilty in assassinating him. and yet practically no one knows of the verdict

the prick deserved to sit in jail for a good two decades. fuck the double jeopardy rule
