I think it's ridiculous that they have a live feed on the 4 main channels all day, everyday until this is over! They have ruined daytime programming. Why all 4 channels? Why not just 1 ?

Ratings, advertising, etc. I wonder why so many of these cases that get international attention are either in Florida or California???

I don't know how I feel about this case. My family told us kids not to be where someone could misinterpret your actions, like in a dark alley in the middle of the night. And stay away from trouble and trouble will stay away from you.

I don't know what profiling really means, jumping to judgment based on a persons appearance and whereabouts? I don't know. But I just wish they had both ended up with black eyes and broken noses and continued on their lives wherever their lives were taking them.

I don't know what I would have thought if I ran into George Zimmerman with a gun in the dark or he ran into me with a hoody and something in my hand in the middle of the night.

I just don't know what to think.

We all react dramatically different in the dark when we are alarmed than when we are at the breakfast table.

Overkill is very deep word.

I'd rather run into Zimmerman in the dark than Trayvon.

Not for nothing, but when my nieces and nephews visit, they stop at the booth, say where they are going and what they are doing. They don't get out of the car and pound the guys head into the sidewalk.

From what I have seen on television, the clothing taken off of Zimmerman that night was not muddy like it would have been if Zimmerman had been wrestled to the ground on a rainy night and pinned under Martin. Zimmerman's hands were also unbruised as were Martin's hands unbruised. The crime scene technician also did not find bloody areas of sidewalk and people testified the rain was just a drizzle at that time. It does lead one to question Zimmerman's story.

I just hope that there are some commonsensical jurors on the Zimmerman case and not some that twirl from the spin doctoring of the two sides trying to sell their side of the story. The jurors are supposed to be the real triers of fact even though I am afraid that this is often lost in the smoke and mirrors presented.

I did find that the jurors in the Casey Anthony were good at this. The media spun their version of the facts before the trial ever even happened.

gocubsgo: Spot on. I said it with OJ, Casey Anthony Lacey Peterson case in California. We are make sport of this and in my view it only diminishes our society all the more. I'll admit my spouse is hooked and so we live separate lives while these trials go on and on.

How can anyone get a fair trial with all the open record crap given to the media prior to trial. Do something about the open records issue !!!

If people weren't watching, they wouldn't be showing it on four channels. I haven't watched any Zimmerman coverage. I hate wasting good daylight hours. However I have to admit that I got hooked on both the Arias trial and the Casey Anthony trial. I guess watching pure evil is addictive.

I am watching and yes getting hooked. I find it fascinating how testimony can be twisted by the opposition's attorney. I said in the beginning the attorney that pulls the best trick out of his hat will win. It is an awful travesty, but reality of how these things go down these days.

So right. Read the posts just on TOTV. Folks are just not living anymore, simply watching and actually ROOTING for one side or another. Justice seldom mentioned.

I never knew so many "judges" lived in The Villages.
