Now to see just how civil things remain seeing justice prevail in this case. $:-\$

Smart jury that considered the evidence not the politics.

Bad situation for everyone involved however justice prevailed.

Pretty much my sentiments as well.

They rioting in Watts, yet?

I do hate to say this, but I believe that George Zimmerman will now be charged by the Obama Department of inJustice on a civil-rights charge. Do you remember the number of police officers (this was regarding the Rodney King fiasco) that were found not guilty by a jury in California? Those men were then charged by the feds and found guilty. Seems a lot like double jeopardy to me. This administration has shown that there is nothing that they will not do to get their way. And Sharpton, and Jackson, and the NAALCP have already said that they are going to ask Obama and Holder to do this.

The DOJ and FBI have already concluded investigations, over a year ago, pre-trial. In Florida, once self defense is established, by means of court trial or the state's determination (pre-trial), civil immunity is granted. There's nothing left, but the media and race baiters. Now, with an acquittal, any chance of another investigation, let alone any indictment, is less likely. Sure, they'll waste a few million/billion tax dollars to tell you that.

There were some riots in various locations...
Illegal criminal activity and destruction of public property doesn't change the outcome one way or the other! However it just shows peoples ignorance through this expression of hatred toward people in general! Very sad! ${$default_angry_smiley}$

If you are talking the cops that beat Rodney King....they WERE guilty! Don't know how they got off the state charges.

I agree.

Ramjet · July 14 2013 07:52:42 PM MDT

Yea the Civil Rights charges may be pending but that in my Opinion would spell doom for Obama and his desired legacy because they surely would loose.

DenStinett · July 14 2013 08:03:15 PM MDT

YES, but is this not the MO / SOP of all Poor Losers
This isn't a best 2 out of 3 deal is it ? ! ?
Will they keep throwing more and more out until something sticks ?
If so, then use the outcome of that Trail to again attack Gun Rights

Not really. Civil Immunity has to do with a Civil Lawsuit ($$$), it has nothing to do with a Federal charge of Civil Rights violations (Hate Crime).

The DOJ has come out with a statement that they will indeed investigate GZ further for Civil Rights violations.

"Experienced federal prosecutors will [now] determine whether the evidence reveals a prosecutable violation of any of the limited federal criminal civil rights statutes within our jurisdiction, and whether federal prosecution is appropriate in accordance with the Department's policy governing successive federal prosecution following a state trial."

What do you think that means? It means exactly what it says, the previous investigators were not experienced enough to get the job done. Obama and Holder will now send in the big guns and find all kinds of new evidence( false and manufactured I might add) proving that GZ was a racist and should be tried under the "Hate Crime" statues.

Ramjet · July 15 2013 08:15:44 AM MDT

exactly this is political witch hunt the Obama Administration has lost on so many Gun issues already they are trying to save face and this being made high profile by the politics is the opportunity for something to stick. But I suspect the Poltical Advisors to Obama will not pursue and let it play out as Civil Lawsuit because as the cases could run concurrent that would be a bad strategy. Either way it is time for us take back this Country and stop the Liberal from continuing to put unreasonable restriction on our ability to protect ourselves or our families and for them to stop taking our hard earned money and giving to those who neither want to work or even try to work.
