If you are referring to my post, how much would you like to bet? If you would like to put your money where your post is, give me a dollar amount.
You can't seem to realize that the posters re Martin are not defending Zimmerman, but are attacking trial by distorted reporting and professional demagogues like Sharpton and Jackson. Race, per se, has nothing to do with it. I would feel the same way if Zimmerman were black, rather than Jewish-Hispanic, and the media, demagogues, and posters like you were convicting him on the basis of the information now available. From the evidence that I have heard about, there is no way that a jury could convict him of anything beyond a reasonable doubt, and it does not even seem that the police have the probable cause necessary to make an arrest. Certainly, it is improper for the police to arrest someone if they don't think that they can get a conviction.
But more facts may emerge. In the meantime, I would suggest you, unlike the media, be more restrained before accusing someone of murder and wait for the conclusion of the investigation.
