    Why is this Case important to You?

    For those who routinely discuss this issue, why exactly is it important to you?

    I was oriignally only interested because I didn't like the initial rush to judgement that was occuring. I really didn't have any idea if I felt he was guilty or not, but realized that not enough information was out to make any decision and most of it was just pumped up by the media. My position has solidified since then, now I guess i'm just stuck with following the case.

    As soon as the case hit the media, everyone rushed to a judement based on bad information filtered through the media. A lot of that early reporting has since been found to be flat out incorrect.

    In order to even get to an arrest, they had to force multiple people to step aside and appoint a special prosecutor who clearly overcharged in order to get an arrest and quell the anger created by those initlal, false reports.

    It doesn't interest me. People need to get over it. The stand your ground law is being evaluated for possible changes to improve it. The people got what they wanted and there was an arrest and a trial. Things like this happen every day and the only reason this got any notice were the racial implications and gun rights implications.

    No everybody didn't.. Some people who wanted to make it about race or political parties did.

    Norm Wolfzinger has a TERRIBLE reputation...

    Wrong!
    Everybody from your side of the coin rushed to judgement, and initiated making it about race and political affiliation.

    Depends what side you are on. It's a mob if you are against it and it's a democratic majority if you are for it.
