Gee wizz take it easy, the facts are not all in and daily new revelations are coming out, don't be a Judge Jury and Executioner just because of mass hysteria,and mob mentality, the ruckus that has been raised is surely enough to promote a full investigation, I am sure all the I s will be dotted and the Ts will be crossed as a result of the situation being put under the International spotlight.
So the Grand Jury will not convene till aprox the 10 th of April, let's not jump too quickly and let Justice take it's course,I know one thing I would not want to be in Zimmermans shoes with so much pressure being applied for his arrest, even IF he acted in self defence I believe his goose is allready cooked, it is easier to throw one to the wolves than have another Race riot.

You must be from WI....that retreat law sucks! If their a threat, their dead, sorry...been around the block personally on this issue and you have very little time to assess the situation. The minute you decide to carry and you don not decide to use fatal means, you're a dead man walking.
I'm not trying to justify this guys actions...for that is the courts responsibility, not mine. I'm only pointing out the facts of carrying a weapon and the huge responsibility it carries in doing so.

I worry for your family if you are ever caught without a gun...sounds like you would be helpless to defend them.
Zimmerman also blatantly violated major principles of the Neighborhood Watch manual, ABC News has learned. The manual, from the National Neighborhood Watch Program, states: "It should be emphasized to members that they do not possess police powers, and they shall not carry weapons or pursue vehicles. They should also be cautioned to alert police or deputies when encountering strange activity. Members should never confront suspicious persons who could be armed and dangerous."

The kid got killed and that is sad, regardless of the stuff we don't know about yet.
My question is why does Obama take it upon himself to conveniently interject himself into this story by claiming this kid could pass for an Obama Jr?
If that doesn't tell even his hard core fans that Barack is an egotistica/opportunistic aye-hole I don't know what will.
Obama is trying to politicize this story because it has Race War written all over it.

Bulls***!!
Zimmerman put himself in a position to be attacked by following this kid!
I got news for you. I walk to the store almost every night. Follow me some time, in the dark, and I don't know you. Guess what?? I'm jumping your ass too!
The only difference is, I am not 17. I wont jump you from behind a bush. I am going to walk right up on you and find out why your following me and if you dont have the right answer, you can pick your teeth up off the ground while you think about it.
