Outsiders are not understanding the dynamics of the jury.
Sanford is not the problem. The jury pool is from Seminole County which 93% White.
This not consistent with the makeup of Sanford.
Seminole county was the jury pool but the seated jurors are also from Sanford - the largest city in the county. White women in Sanford have daily contact with black and brown people. Many of them got black relatives and friends.

GZ and GZ jr both lived in Sanford and they both are inter-racially married. There is alot of inter -racial relationships in Sanford and Central Florida.
My son and I was in a restaurant yesterday. An old white man, redneck, came over and asked my son, 21 yr old, if he was following the trial. They talked. He announced in the restaurant for all to hear, that he hopes Zimmerman is found guilty and is nailed to the wall with rusty nails. He said he had the nails at the house.
Some folks smile, some folks shook their heads yes.
It was 50 people in the area. 4 black people.
The majority of the white folks agreed with the old white man.
George may walk. I am betting conviction. But white privilege is not alive and well for GZ is this area.
Frank Taffe the other day.
Dude needs to.

Defense never proved that Zimmerman was instructed to get out of the car. Why get out of the car Zimmerman?
Defense never proved that Trayvon circled his car.
Don't fall for that extra piece of cornbread trick. Whites have been using that one for centuries.
This is why so many of you complain everyday about not getting jobs .
She is in law school. She is networking and working as an unpaid intern that gives her real court room experience while in school. In a big case.
This is how you not only build your knowledge but also how to build your resume.
Stop with all the coon shit all the fucking time. Thats your fuckin answer to everything.
The most despicable of the lot are the producers who constantly parade him out as a panelist and place him among a lineup of educated and experienced professionals only for the purposes of being an agitator and annoyance. Notice the fake outrage by the whites of the group. They could barely hid their smirks. Its all a big joke for them. Disgusting.
Fuck this dude and anyone supporting Zimmerman. Ever notice how everyone in Zimmerman's circle is a scumbag? Taffe, Joe Oliver (a lying scumbag... see O'Donnell's outing of him for reference), his dad (see his new book), his brother (see twitter).
So everyone around George is a collosal asshole/douche but he's a "good guy" huh?![]()

Why is the Sanford, Fl Police pleading for peace before the verdict? Do they know something we don't know??
They are trying to imply that we are savages and that white people would not or will not react similarly if the verdict doesnt go their way. They want to pin the entire riot concept on blacks. Even if a white guy throws a bomb through black barbershop window and those black react, the riots w ill still be blamed on black people due to media perception. It's pre-curser to blame.
you do understand that the defense doesn't have to prove anything.
burden of proof belongs to the prosecution only
do u think the state did it's job?
Jury has a question, not a verdict
So, he's definitely not going to get Murder 2

Ok, Dr whatever his name is has to be boycotted for inviting that caveman back after this barbaric statement
Jagu they all need to be boycotted.
Throughout the trail he has appeared extensively on HLN on either Nancy Grace, Jean Velez Mitchell or the above show making outrageous and obnoxious comments![]()
So, he's definitely not going to get Murder 2
