Speaking only as a former Prosecutor and not as a Conservative, I just don’t see there is enough here for a civil rights violation. And I would have charged Zimmerman with manslaughter.

America is now Venezuela. The rule of law is gone.

“Where is the petition for those who are against the NAACP demanding that charges be filed? We need to submit at least 3.4 million signatures.”

Why would you want to do that when it only “legitimizes” what the NAACPEPE is trying to do. To not confront them, simply makes them look like the looser a$$holes that they are! NAACPEPE has a defined and limited “audience.” Sane people have written them off a long time ago.

>> 1.7 million signatures calling on the Department of Justice to pursue charges against George Zimmerman

If I were in charge, I’d split that 1.7M-name list into 2,000 name lists, and use them as the passenger manifests for 850 one-way cruises from Miami to Monrovia.

How many signatures could be get to pressure the DOJ to go after the Reverend Al? Is signature count the deciding factor?

Oh, the radio just reported from Spokane cops that “robbery was the motive” for the attack on the 88 y.o. vet, and that “race did not have anything to do with it”. Really. Really?
So, if they had come after a cash heavy mex it wouldn’t either? How do they conclude this, esp. since again the twitter feed expands on the motive.

Zimmerman is more percentage black than Ben Jealous is .

He is 4 time more black ancestry than Elizabeth Warren claims to have Indian ancestry.

Such is the sad state of racial politics in America in the 21st century

1.7 million fradulent signatures much like voter fraud. The group must have writers cramp

What new charges against GZ does this raucous gang want the DOJ to pursue? A blood-thirsty mob wants “legal” action from a lawless administration. Is there any wonder why guns sales are so brisk?

They forget the fifth amendment.

That would be the one dealing with double jeopardy.

Why would you state (as a former prosecutor) that you would have charged Zimmerman with anything at all, at this point?

The facts are now known.

Nothing substantially new has been introduced that was unknown when the Sanford PD first investigated the death that night, and a decision was made that no charges needed to be filed against Zimmerman, due to very clear evidence of simple self-defense.

It's not as if Zimmerman denied killing Martin, or ran from the scene, or altered evidence in the altercation.

The information about Martin that eventually came out, supported, but did not materially matter, to the evidence, and the reason Zimmerman was not charged with a crime in the first place. I'm really curious as to why you, as a prosecutor, would have charged Zimmerman with any crime at all, since you have access to all the facts.

Did the NAACP come out publicly and condemn:

- The Wichita Horror?
- The torture and slaughter of Christian/Newsom?
- The brutal rape and murder of the elderly Straits in
Tulsa?
- The assassination of Chris Lane?
- The thousand upon thousands of assaults and rapes and
murders of innocent whites by feral blacks?

No, I didn't think so

1.7 million, that’s one hell of a lynch mob.

Wonder how many times Mickey Mouse signed the Petition?

And how many foreign signatures were on it?

I really hope Obama leaves office before we all end up shooting each other over our relative pigmentation...
