So is Mike Tyson and Al Sharpton @ssholes as well? (IMO, yes.. but I'm interested in your opinion)..

Yeah right.. "Love campaign" to arrest someone without possessing credible "probable cause" that a crime was committed, not an act of self-defense..

I'm offering no opinion as to the potential guilt or innocence of Zimmerman. But, geezus weeps, we cannot arrest and try a man in the court of public opinion.

What transpired that evening was tragic for all parties concerned. But what's more tragic is that Zimmerman felt that he had to engage in a "neighborhood watch" that evening because of prior criminal activity that the local police had FAILED to deal with.

But I'm seeing major news media producers (NBC) editing evidence in order to sensationalize this tragedy and create an even greater one should racial animosity rise to levels of future violence.

And for you to state that the interpretation of that 911 call regarding the use of racist ephitets as "irrelevant" indicates that you've already charged, tried, and convicted Zimmerman.

But none of what I have seen, thus far, provides "beyond a reasonable doubt" evidence of his guilt. I'm not even sure that suggest reasonable "probable cause" for an arrest at this point. But we'll just have to wait until we see what the special prosecutor's evidence is with regard to this. IF it fails to rise to a credible level of probable cause, then I would suggest that she be reprimanded for prosecutorial abuse.
