If you spoke Jive (see, e.g., the movie Airplane, 1980), you’d know that there are several contexts in which “this ni*ga” simply means “this particular gentleman.”
The case would have never been prosecuted if the RACIST LEFTISTS hadn’t pushed the LIES AND PROPAGANGA. The prosecutor got WIPED OUT today when their witness testified under cross examination that the CRIES SHE HEARD WERE LIFE THREATENING and then the defense showed Zimmermans bloody photos. That took a BIG DUMP on the whole case.
