It is about the George Zimmerman trial. I have followed the case since the beginning but really haven&#8217;t commented much on it as others have done a much better job. The case is almost to a close with the defense as I write this is making its closing argument. I think this case is a travesty of justice as does Miguel.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i>So what we have now is a trial so tainted by prosecutorial misconduct and political pressure it has become something you see on TV about kangaroo courts in Third World countries, a very dangerous precedent to have. And I don\u2019t care if you think Zimmerman is guilty and that he should spend the rest of his life in prison, this is not the way that a verdict of guilty should be achieved and we should not be accomplices on the travesty because it will make us feel better. <b>If we let feelings corrupt our rights to a fair and impartial trial, you can bet your life  it will be used against others and even yourself.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>But by then it will be too late.<\/i> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The comment of the day comes from Miguel at the Gun Free Zone blog.
