George Zimmerman charged

If you saw the smiling face on special prosecutor Angela Corey as she announced Zimmerman's being charged, you would not hold out much hope for him. She appeared positively gleeful, I suppose because she has pleased those who made the most violent threats about revenge in the streets. I'm sure Rodney King came to her mind. TD

Thomas Lifson: George Zimmerman to be charged with second degree murder  "The case now will become another "trial of the century" in the media, but will ultimastely be decided by a jury based on the evidence. If, that is, the jury pool has not already been poisoned by media malpractice."


Hot Air: Zimmerman arrested, charged with 2nd-degree murder "Manslaughter would have been another option, so it’s interesting that she went with murder two.  I assume that this means the prosecution believes they can prove that Zimmerman pursued Martin and shot him, but we’ll know more when the preliminary hearing comes."


Legal InsurrectionSpecial Prosecutor Press Conference   ""I saw on Twitter that the Martin family held a press conference with Al Sharpton by their side, but I didn’t get to see it.  Although Zimmerman now is charged, and the case is in the courts, I expect the Martin family attorneys, Sharpton, and others continue to work the case in the media from a racial angle and to inflame passions in the community as a means of tainting the jury pool.
"For the prosecutor to embrace the Martin family attorneys with thanks at the press conference, and for AG Eric Holder verbally to praise Sharpton today, tells me that a case which should be about facts of who did what to whom is going to turn into an even bigger racial narrative for a variety of purposes which have nothing to do with the guilt or innocence of the accused.""


RACE WAR! Democrat La Raza President: Blacks, Hispanics Should Team Up ‘To Attack Common Enemies’  "Al Sharpton Show Promotes Race War– La Raza President Janet Murguia used Wednesday’s Al Sharpton radio show to spew the latest round of racial hatred. Murgola called on blacks and Hispanics to team up against the common enemy (whitey).
It’s more of that hope-and-change we were promised."
From the comments to the above post:
From LaRaza’s perspective, the enemy would be all non-socialists and non-communists. LaRaza is like NOW — they will only defend Far Left folk. Their absence in the Zimmerman case clearly demonstrates this.
From Sweetness and Light: Democrats ‘Celebrate’ Zimmerman Charges   "Lest we forget, Mr. Rush was the ‘Secretary Of Defense’ for the first Black Panthers. Who, in fact, regularly killed people because of the color of their skin."

Meanwhile, those whom the prosecutor is so happy to have pleased hold others in terror: Elderly Couple In Fear Over Spike Lee Tweet.
