Is the purpose of the bond to guarantee his appearance in court, or to punish him? I believe that in this case, Zimmerman has demonstrated that he’s not planning on ‘skipping out’ on the trial. This is just legal harassment.
We're all being trained. The lesson is: don't shoot black thugs. Even if you are 100% justified, the mob will make your life hell. The left believes black thugs are allies and deserve occupational safety like the rest of us. The judge and prosecutor know there is no legal chance of conviction but this is an election year. America is increasingly a banana republic run by thugs.
