The Freepers are heavily invested in seeing to it that gun worshipping racists are able to kill minorities in their neighborhoods at will.

Yup! It looks as though the girls intend to give Holder’s Black Pampers something to keep them cooled down.

IMO the fact that they didn’t declare him not guilty within an hour means the jurors are idiots.

I’ve been saying all along that the wildcard here is the all female jury. I cannot believe the defense allowed this to happen. This is a very simple case. Most of what was presented was fluff and distraction. The fact that they are asking this question and that they have been out so long indicates that they are way over-thinking this thing. Emotion is ruling over logic.

1. I've been seeing a disgusting amount of sexism

in right wing circles, aimed at the all female jury.

[bettyellen]

8. funny, Zim's lawyers were incredibly condescending to the judge and every woman they came

across. I honestly came to think they felt they could fool women easier than men, LOL. Fools.

[DeschutesRiver]

14. Felt that way to me as well.

I have watched every one of their stupid moves and wondered how they could be so unaware of how badly they were coming across to all women, and right in front of the women who would be deciding this case.

[Moses2SandyKoufax]

3. I wonder what "Clint N. Suhks'" DU user-name is? n/t

[HockeyMom]

4. Give and take by attorneys during Voir Dere

Prosecution got females and Defense got Whites. My feeling? As a woman myself? Gender trumps Race.

[Honeycombe8]

5. Disgusting. But those on the other side who convicted GZ at the outset, w/no evidence,

are just as bad, IMO.

It's a good thing that jury is composed of women. They're more detail oriented and careful in reviewing details, IMO. I have faith they'll be fair and judge based on the evidence. Whatever their decision is.

(Looks like it may be manslaughter, which I said from long ago was a possibility...I never saw evidence of murder. But I don't know if manslaughter is appropriate...I'd have to deliberate all the evidence at a table with other jurors before deciding that.)

[LittleBlue]

9. Agreed

Women, men or Martians, it doesn't matter as long as they give careful consideration to the evidence and the law.

[bettyellen]

11. at the outset the majority of the "other side" wanted assurance the investigation was actually

going on, with evidence gathered and THEN charges would then be considered.
It appeared to have been stalled without even interviewing all witnesses... the witnesses themselves were outraged.

[The Magistrate]

12. You Are Interfering, Ma'am, With The 'Myth Of The Persecuted Zimmerman'

It is kind of like telling a four year old there is no Santa Claus....

[bettyellen]

15. Frank Taffe looks like he got a lump of coal. Santa knows if you're an asshole.

[Azathoth]

19. That's not all they wanted

The mantra back then was "They didn't even arrest him! We just want an arrest."

When the investigation was finished, the local DA thoroughly reviewed the case and concluded there wasn't enough evidence for a prosecution. Didn't faze the people who just wanted "assurance."

[bettyellen]

20. the investigation was stalled, for no good reason

so looking into it was completely appropriate. the SPD fucked up big time, and had pretty much given up.
that injustice was corrected, and was charged appropriately. he had no ration explanation and no evidence that the shooting was warranted, so here we are.

[Azathoth]

22. Yep, "stalled investigation" meant they hadn't reached the conclusion those who wanted "assurance"

demanded they reach.

[bettyellen]

24. bullshit, they hand't interviewed all the neighbors.

[Just Saying]

6. Sexist, racist gun-nuttery

Another day at FR!

But it does make me happy to see them suffer.

[Quixote1818]

7. When you live in a Groupthink Box this is what happens

They should have learned after the Presidential election.

[CitizenLeft]

10. I hope their pointy little heads explode

Racist imbeciles.

[Northerner]

13. I guess it's free speech, but those people are frightening and no doubt quite dangerous.

[Nevernose]

16. Wow. I actually agree with one of their statements.

"Most of what they presented was fluff and distraction." I'm assuming that "they" refers to the defense team.

And to be fair t the defense team: if I were accused of a crime, I would hire them. The vast majority of the facts are against them, and all they have is smoke and mirrors, but they're putting on a show like Siegfried and Roy. Of course, it's highly unlikely that I'll ever be accused of a crime, and impossible that anyone will have any evidence against me.

[PennsylvaniaMatt]

17. Freepers have gone through a lot over the past 12 months!

The black socialist from Kenya who hates America being re-elected President

A renewed effort for gun control

A push for immigration reform

The Supreme Court overturning DOMA and Prop 8

....And you know what! I love watching their ridiculous meltdowns!

They are the biggest group of losers I have ever seen! When are they starting their "revolution?"

[arely staircase]

18. maybe they will riot and be beaten in the streets by the law. nt

[kestrel91316]

25. Maybe they will try to harrass the black community directly and

find that whole "stand your ground" thing turned against them.

A girl can dream, right?

[Liberal_in_LA]

21. lol

[global1]

23. Is The Verdict A Repug vs Dem Thing?....

Really?

[customerserviceguy]

26. Expect that no matter which way it goes

There will be a political use of it by at least one side. My guess is that both will try to use it.
