Jury reaches a verdict NOW M$NBComcast - NOT Guilty = fucking hell

[malaise]

[bravenak]

1. I'm actually crying.

[malaise]

7. Rev Al says this is an atrocity

A sad say in the country

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! It's open season on young black men

[bravenak]

39. It is.

It certainly is. I'm speechless, I just want to crawl under a rock and hide.

[Cooley Hurd]

2. Justice in this country is a fucking JOKE!!!!

[anneboleyn]

11. Seriously. Casey, George, what jokes.

[nadinbrzezinski]

3. Not guilty

I am actually surprised.

But what can I say? This is the way this works.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. I am surprised too. I didn't expect this at all.

Truly awful.

I would sure like to hear how the jurors came to this conclusion.

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. I expected manslaughter

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. So did I.

[lumpy]

32. The justice system needs overhauling badlly as moral thought.

[arthritisR_US]

4. FUCK!

GD it makes me sick!!

[ShadowLiberal]

5. Florida doesn't like convicting high profile killers apparently

So, in just a few years Florida has had two high profile murders, Casey Anthony, and George Zimmerman, and found them both not guilty.

Another reason I won't be moving to Florida, I want justice if I get murdered.

[Marrah_G]

6. ~shakes head~

[bettyellen]

8. so fucked up. how did they find his excuses credible? how?

[suffragette]

18. Completely fucked up

[bettyellen]

40. hey you! *hugs*

[suffragette]

41. Back at ya

[City Lights]

10. I'm disgusted!

[lumpy]

22. All to be hoped for is that Geor. Zimmerman will get his just desserts sooner than later.

Whether in the here after or on earth. Must be "God's Plan" or the devils.

[backscatter712]

31. It would be poetic justice for Zimmerman to get shot by a vigilante. n/t

[FarPoint]

14. The power of the GOP, Foxx Noise and the NRA

populous propaganda has won.

Oh for Chrissake! Fireworks going off in Ohio where I live.

[malaise]

16. Civil suit coming

Federal investigation coming - Rev Al

[FarPoint]

19. Just as long as Georgie has no peace...ever

can be somewhat satisfying. I hope he gains 300 more pounds.

[LuvNewcastle]

34. I can go along with that. n/t

[lumpy]

35. Hope so and hope Zimmerman has to spend many many hours sitting in court rooms and losing

the money he has gleaned from his 'adventure' catching 'criminals'. This just cannot be left to be forgotten.

[Egalitarian Thug]

17. No it isn't, it's America. The reason I'm such a cynical asshole is simply experience

and spending a lifetime among our fellow assholes. I called this on day one and have refrained from engaging in the hundreds of threads leading up to this foregone conclusion.

[FarPoint]

24. I always seem to take the bait....

I take it every time..........

I believed in justice but now I have to find hope elsewhere....civil case and such.... maybe just hang onto the knowledge Georgie will have no peace.


Crap...I still am in shock that the red necks in my neighborhood are setting off firework!

[Egalitarian Thug]

28. I'm sorry, too. This is another in a seemingly endless list of outrages.

Not to make your night any worse, but this murdering piece of shit is going to get all the fame and fortune his feeble mind could have ever imagined. He is going to be made a hero.

[FarPoint]

37. Not sure how long the NRA- Zimmy

honeymoon will last. Zimmerman's is a natural ass hole....so hope its a brief romance and Zimmy gets to be old news for them. He will easily grow to be problematic.

[lumpy]

30. Why did you think this would happen ? Because of racism, ignorance, regional bigotry,

NRA influence and money ? I really would like to know your take on this.

[Egalitarian Thug]

38. Because I was (un?)fortunate enough to be born early enough to see

the cusp of this nation's most critical junction since the Civil war.

As a small child I grew up in a nation of hope and opportunity. Watching man set foot on the moon is one of my very earliest memories. As a teenager, I saw this nation make a specific, deliberate choice to turn its back on the future and embrace a fantasy created by the most bankrupt, evil men on earth, and here's the most important part, I saw tens of millions of people that absolutely knew full well that what was being done was pure evil, and they went along with it for the chance that they could get rich along the way. They sold their souls and our future for a BMW and a 3-piece suit. They turned their backs on their fellow human beings and ignored their suffering and deprivation.

Since then I have watched this nation literally disintegrate, while most of those around me developed the capacity to purposely blind themselves to what was happening all around them.

It permeates this site and DU is, believe it or not, better than the overall reality. Small, mean, minds that take a perverse pleasure in making everything that they can influence, worse.

The racism, bigotry, the NRA, all that you mentioned and much more are merely symptoms of the underlying cancer that is consuming us all. America is the embodiment of evil in the world today.

[lumpy]

26. Damn. I am so glad I live on the West Coast, I couldn't hack it anywhere else.

[Boomerproud]

27. Sean Hannity is celebrating like no tomorrow.

Not so Lisa Bloom on MSNBC or Jeffrey Toobin on CNN. I have nothing to say I'm so stunned.

[ecstatic]

15. Stunning verdict.

I was so sure there would be a part two that would be read.... but no... a simple "Not Guilty" of anything...

[suffragette]

20. Damn

[Raine]

21. DISGRACEFUL!!! nt

[malaise]

23. He'll do it again

Goof fucking grief - what just happened???

[arely staircase]

25. un fucking believable

shame

[BainsBane]

29. They didn't read the individual counts

Don't they usually go count by count?

[miked62916]

33. unf'ingbelievable

There really is no such thing as justice in this country.

[Blue_Roses]

36. what the fuck is wrong with Florida?

Unbelievable! This is pure bullshit!

[Egalitarian Thug]

42. It's always been this way. A haven for thieves and racists going back for as long as it's

been a state. The Marx Brothers made film in the '30s wherein one of the central themes was the numerous real estate scams that the state's laws allow. Corrupt and backward, the installation of the shrub in the White House was only one of Floriduh's contributions to the degradation of America.

[malaise]

43. Very well said

I was two upset to stick around last night.
