The media seems unwilling to back off from their original story line—”unarmed black teenager” killed by racially-profiling trigger-happy white vigilante. Even if the proceedings in court are done properly and they actually get honest jurors who will decide on the basis of the evidence, it could be an explosive situation when the trial happens, with the public, especially the black community, expecting a conviction. Probably Sharpton and Jackson and the usual suspects will have demonstrations going on. Will the jurors fear they will trigger widespread rioting if they find Zimmerman innocent?

This is where media malpractice needs to be brought up. Because the media has been caught in blatant lies.

And the public lies of witnesses - such as the coroner claiming publicly that Trayvon had no injuries besides the gunshot wound, when the autopsy actually says he had injuries to his knuckles. See http://www.wftv.com/news/news/local/autopsy-results-show-trayvon-martin-had-injuries-h/nN6gs/

I believe what needs to happen at this point is the judge needs to throw the whole thing out, because that would disable the plans the race hustlers had for this all along: to get big bucks through a civil lawsuit.

And to discourage this kind of thing, the people who made it possible need to be prosecuted or punished by the public in some way. If we don’t do something to make an example out of this, we’ll see more and more of it.

If there are going to be riots over something the evidence clearly supports, then so be it. The alternative is to let terrorism disable our entire law enforcement system and Constitutiional government. I’d rather that we have an enemy to the Constitution that we can confront and overcome, than to watch the country just go quietly away with no way to save it. If this is the battle they want to fight, I say bring it, so everybody finally knows what’s been going on while they were sleeping.
