I say again, I am glad this case went to trial.

You can thank Sharpton, TM's parents and the "leaders" in the black community for that.
It never should have gone to trial. The only reason it did is because of big Al, Obama and the mob of people who would've burned Sanford to the ground if it hadn't gone to trial.
And if GZ walks, it'll be the Rodney King riots all over again. And for the record, I think those cops should have been locked up. They brutally beat Rodney King and should have been found guilty. I could not believe they all walked free. I'll even say people were justified to riot over that case....though not justified in targeting whites to beat down.
GZ is NOT those cops. He followed out of how he was trained. He was ambushed and beat down. He shot because he didn't have any other choice. That 6'0" 17 year old with tats was on him and wasn't going to let GZ up off the ground alive.

Which is EXACTLY why Obama should have stayed out of it. His statements only served to fan the flames hotter.
