Verdict as expected. And that's shocking.
People here expected exactly this outcome, despite the overwhelming majority being convinced that Zimmerman was guilty. And nobody's surprised that the black woman who fired a shot in the air to scare off her abusive husband got 20 years, either. Right, I know Florida couldn't care less for my opinion, but seriously - is this really an image to be proud of?
Just a thought: George Zimmerman jr. is the product of a society which lives in a state of constant fear. A society dictated by fear can't be equal, free, prosperous and happy. A society full of fear is a society without trust and faith. And without trust and faith, it is doomed to fail.
