In reply to the discussion: Ohio Group Raises $12K To Buy Zimmerman Guns [View all]branford
(4,462 posts)I've been a long-time reader at DU, but the recent Zimmerman case and the implications of the Detroit bankruptcy encouraged me to register.
Despite the difficulties in bringing a civil case against Zimmerman and the apparent lack of evidence for a federal civil rights indictment, I believe that justice, if it is warranted, will prevail. Whether or not it is justified, George Zimmerman is unlikely to ever live a normal life. Apart from the threats against his life, which I strongly denounce as pure vigilantism, Zimmerman will forever be an object of ridicule and scorn and a social leper. If your only "friends" are your attorney, admitted racists whom you claim to abhor and militia-types whom you never met and want to use you for their own political ends, your life is already over.
