They only said Trayvon was “profiled”, nothing more.

I believe the proper terminology calls it "criminal profiling".

For everyone who keeps saying GZ needs to leave the country... WHY?
He shouldn’t have to leave the country to get away from a Dictator! The friggin Dictator and his corrupt DOJ need to stop acting like we have no rights and they’re our Overlords!

What will THAT solve if he leaves? First Zimmerman leaves, then Joe leaves, then Bill leaves, then Bob leaves, and pretty soon they’re coming for you and you have to leave.

NO ONE should be leaving — WE ALL should be standing up for him. This should be the pivotal moment when we decide that enough is enough, and we’ll help defend our fellow brother — black or white or yellow or red — who is being railroaded by this Kenyan foreigner and his Chicago mob who have turned the GOPe into a bunch of sad, panty-waisted, lilly-livered, scum-sucking, pea-brained amoebas!!

Who cares! Who wants to be “Under investigation” for God knows how long by the Federal government.
The real investigation should be of Holder and the DOJ and Angela Corey.

They found nothing. But that was BEFORE the ‘not guilty’ verdict. A mob forced an arrest and trial. Now that same mob is going to try to force a federal trial.

Another poster stated (and I’m so sorry, I lost my place and I’m not sure who posted it) that we should protect Zimmerman the way we would protect the Constitution, as in doing so we are essentially protecting both.

Listening to JJ on FOX. Aaaarrrrrg!
He is so stupid. How did he ever become a leader ?
Think it was Arthel who did the interview. When she corrected him that Z wasn’t white but Hispanic he blink blink blinked and finally spit out a nonsensical utterance.

[How do you turn this into a civil rights case without - in effect - placing Zimmerman under double jeopardy?]

Well, first you get a half-white(Sabbatean?) / half-Kenyan 100% Communist Useful Idiot an Ivy League edumacation so he can call himself a “Constitutional Professor”.

Then the Weathermen tell the “professor” which way the wind should blow...

I hear the Black Sea is very nice.

Not only that, the Ukraine girls really knock me out, they leave the West behind.

Plus, Russia has a flat tax and a low (or no) business tax.

The DOJ started it even before the verdict:

Outraged NAACP Wants Feds to Prosecute Zimmerman (civil rights probe opened by DOJ)

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3042785/posts

“We are outraged and heartbroken over today’s verdict,” NAACP President Benjamin Jealous said in a statement.

“We will pursue civil rights charges with the Department of Justice, we will continue to fight for the removal of Stand Your Ground laws in every state, and we will not rest until racial profiling in all its forms is outlawed,” Jealous said.

A civil rights probe had previously been opened by the Department of Justice and a spokeswoman said the department would continue to “evaluate the evidence generated during the federal investigation, as well as the evidence and testimony from the state trial.”

Looks like we should start referring to DOJ as DOJACP (Department of Justice for the Advancement of Colored People).

That's why I think that bright and early tomorrow morning the schemers and their prosecution team will be given no quarter and no room to breathe as shtf from every quarter.

Like I;ve said countless times, Holder will do everything to prosecute him. This regime is truly evil.

Even if no charges are filed, Zimmerman will have a terrible time getting a job and probably will have to leave Florida to start over. What was done to him is beyond disgusting.

So if GZ is somehow re-arrested, charged and incarcerated for .... something.... I’ll expect to see you leading the way to break him out. Is that it?

From a theorectical POV, I agree with you. But if I was GZ, after what I just went thru, you think I’d be sitting around hoping some Constitutional Cavalry would be coming to my rescue?
