The Martins have suffered a great loss, but that isn't supposed to make Zimmerman lose his right to a fair trial. Now all the political pressure to get him convicted by a jury, what if the man is not guilty of murder, how would you like to be in his shoes? What if he did not confront Martin? What if Martin made a decision to jump him and beat the tar out of him? In Florida and in Texas that is a dangerous thing to do, too many folks packing. Maybe he made an immature 17 year old decision, in the context of a neighborhood being terrorised by young black hoodlums and mean pitbulls. Now he has to defend himself before the world, not just his peers, as the law provides.

Crak Sharpton has been VERY LEVEL HEADED in his remarks throughout this whole case-- which, by the way, got enormous before Sharpton got involved.
As for Jackson, he hasn't said or done much this far.
Your bias of Sharpton (albeit based on his recent past) is not congruent with the fact of how he is carrying himself so far.
As for zim, he perjured himself pure and simple-- regardless of if the 200K will cover his legal fees.
No one made zim a marked man except zim himself.
His actions, his little red wagon to pull.
I am glad this case grew the way it did and I am glad he is going to trial.
The Martin family deserve to see the killer of their son go to trial in a case that is anything but cut and dry!
