Whatever the jury decides in the Zimmerman case, he will either be taken care of by the great state of Florida for the next several years, or he will have to move to another country for his own safety. Perhaps he and Casey Anthony could go into hiding together.

"Stand your ground" as. defense was discarded months ago, and in my opinion, if the publicity seeking politicians keep their nose out of it, all will be fine.
The publicity surrounding this case has subsided quite a bit as facts have emerged and the political gains are not so obvious.
I just hope justice is allowed to play out without the politics.
This case, without the Politics does not approach at all the sensationalism that surrounded Anthony.
