We only hear what so the so called media wants us to hear, not everything as that jury did. The media has made a circus of this and will not let it go. Either we accept our legal system as is or work to change it. But stop trying to second guess it.
And if Eric Holder or Harry Reid or Al Sharlaton or the NAACP continue to stir the pot, they are the one's that should be prosecuted. You can't try a person a second time for the same thing, that is called double jeopardy and is not allowed under our legal system. They are all grand standing for political gain.

I used to second guess juries. However, after serving on a jury that was sequestered for three weeks for a murder trial, I no longer second guess. It is a very intense and difficult job they have, and as stated, both sides were represented and heard in this case. In this juries eyes the state didn't meet the criteria for a conviction. It SHOULD be over, whether we onlookers agree or not.
