Some see Zimmerman as a hero.

Some don't pay attention and let their prejudice get in the way of the facts.

As stated the law makes every effort to define what a dwelling, residence and vehicle are. Then they they make a broad statement about "any other place". That means every other place that is not a residence, dwelling or vehicle.

By the way, the grounds part does not fly either. The law states "any other place where he or she has a right to be". The important part here being legal right. A person does not have the legal right to be on your private property.

Any other place means just that. Any place that is not mentioned in sec 1&2.

Funny, never did hear any of your interpretation or stand your ground brought up during the entire trial. Maybe the law doesn't apply because no one was in their personal confines?

Department of Social Justice to get even.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) has called on the Obama administration to pursue civil rights charges against George Zimmerman.

“Attorney General Eric Holder,” the petition reads, “The Department of Justice has closely monitored the State of Florida’s prosecution of the case against George Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin murder since it began. Today, with the acquittal of George Zimmerman, it is time for the Department of Justice to act.”

Ooops.

Yep.

This was a non-case from Day One. The police didn't see cause to file. The local DA didn't see cause to file. And now the jury has said there wasn't cause.

Next up, it's time for Rick Scott to hold an investigation of the Florida DA's office. Withholding material information from the defense is inexcuseable, and firing the person who raised up his hand to call it out is criminal. So is firing the Sanford Chief of Police for refusing to file charges.

I see civil suits coming out of this (two wrongful terminations?), if not a couple criminal investigations.

I'd love to see Sharpton and Obama held accountable for their roles in this, but hey, they've got bigger things to worry about now.

Before everyone gets their Progressive panties in a bunch consider this. 1. The state in theory has UNLIMITED financial & manpower resources to bring to bear against ANY citizen. 2. Mr Zimmerman by all accounts was a man of modest means. 3. The state called in the closet thing they have to a "Hired Gun" in Angela Corey as prosecutor. 4. A sitting President taints the jury pool with irresponsible comments. Despite all of that a jury finds him NOT GUILTY. That tells me something, what it tells me I've no idea.
