Perhpas you would like to enlighten us by explaining what the specifications for murder 2 are. What does the prosecution have to prove? I'm certain you have no clue, but even you can google Florida law on the subject. Do that and report back. The charges never should have been brought...

It's redonkulous to think he said it on purpose.

This is actually a little on the frightening side. Haven't any of you read or seen what Alan Dershowitz has said? He's a Harvard Law Prof, very liberal. Among other things, he pointed out that our legal system is based on the philosophy that it is better for ten guilty people to go free, than...

Agreed, but it was his major blunder over the last few days.

Let me make clear that in my opinion, what makes this an issue is not the foot in the mouth, which was insensitive, but the fact that team Obama failed to grasp the significance of this to the Poles, and handled it poorly. That's what made it news and that's what makes me wonder if Obama keeps...

You people do know the prosecution has already said there is no evidence indicating that Zimmerman provoked a fight, right? So we have a couple things proven with nobody in disagreement: 1. No evidence that Z provoked a fight 2. Martin was on top of Z banging his head on the ground So within...

Obama shows his ignorance by saying it, and then his insensitivity by by expressing mere regret that he misspoke. Now Poland demands a formal apology and the whole thing is front page. This was just poor judgement compounded by arrogance and more poor judgement. This is what bothers me as much...

I don't see how anyone with a straight face can say this case hasn't been loaded with race from the start. Immediately it was "oh boy, we have a white shoots black story, oh boy oh boy oh boy!!!! So from then on the liberal media portrayed it that was, in contradiction to all evidence, and they...

I can't believe there are 688 pages on this and you all are still kicking around speculation that would have no legal bearing whether it was true or not. None of the things attributed to Z without evidence would have created a license for Martin to have attacked him. No matter how much he was...

Anyone who is politically savvy and honest, will admit that Obama is on the ropes right now. That may change, the election may turn on events that haven't happened yet. But for now, things are not going Obama's way and he would lose if the election were tomorrow.

Gun control means hitting what you aim at.

The polls and the fundraising just don't bear that out. But think what you want.

You mean you can just download a signature form and start collecting signatures? Don't they usually give some training first? What's the prediction for Ohio? Do people expect it to pass?

But, much to team Obama's chagrin, Romney does NOT have a problem with his base. Republicans are uniting, just as democrats did after Obama was nominated and there were bad feelings. Funds are pouring in. Nothing has ever unified republicans like Obama!

Neither is either one. That Martin tried to kill Z is the status quo unless it is proven otherwise. That Z thought Martin was trying to kill him is the only requirement. Under stand your ground there is more burden for Z, but as I understand it from reading legal analysis, it is easily met by...

I didn't think voters would be that stupid in 08, it's true. But I tend to forget that half of all people have IQs under 100. Obama rode a wave in 08. No-one vetted him, the media swooned over him. But all that is gone. His biggest problem is with his own base. Plus, he got a lot of centrist...

ginja, We can't talk about this if you are going to talk about what might have been and I'm going to talk about who has to PROVE what under the law. The law doesn't say your right to self defense is based on you being injured to x or y extent. In fact, as I made clear, it doesn't require any...

Not relevant. Haven't you read any of the law on this? Self-defense doesn't require ANY injury. Of course, in this case there was substantial injury, combined with Martin actually saying he was going to kill him.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. We won't be fooled again. (well, of course we will, but not by Obama!)

Let me say that I can see you are an intellect to be reckoned with. I can always tell that with the use of "idiot" and "retard." Name calling is the effort of a feeble mind trying to express itself forcefully. Martin tried to kill Zimmerman. The burden of proof is on the prosecution to PROVE...
