I thought for sure that Zimmerman was gonna get railroaded but after this week...well, the whole thing looks pretty ridiculous. I'm not sure if there is going to be a riot or not...those things are kind of tricky to get rolling...but it is entirely possible that a contingent of race warriors could target the prosecution for incompetence. And, of course, Zimmerman.

Yes, the prosecution is doing a great job. For the defense. What is the old adage about chicken salad?
My greatest fear is that the six women on the jury are of the same mind as some of the respondents in my little Facebook query. Those folks there (FB) who are ardent Trayvon supporters, can totally disregard the actual facts, and will seek to punish George Zimmerman because he "didn't do what the police dispatcher said and just go to his truck." They totally discount or ignore the fact that doughboy GZ was getting the crap beat out of him by an athletic, seventeen year old six footer. They may try to find a "compromise verdict" of involuntary manslaughter, taking it upon themselves to keep the world from rioting over a not-guilty verdict.
Look, if the judge is in on the fix, it does not matter how incompetent the prosecution's case is presented. The judge can charge the jury in such a way that they think they are required to go out and lynch the bastard.
