[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 960084, member: 17969"] This is the problem with your understanding of the events involving the Trayvon Martin shooting. The fact that we are where we are today is simply because there was PUBLIC PRESSURE to get a thorough investigation. Something, niether you or the initial defenders of Zimmerman wanted. The case was closed when the DA rejected the case. There were SWORN charges filed against Zimmerman by the lead HOMOCIDE DETECTIVE involved in the case, and his conclusions and findings were rejected by the DA. There was to be NO FURTHER investigation by local authorities, so, you are incorrect when you say "it would have got there anyways"... that is just untrue. It was pure public pressure, regardless of the personalities involved that got the ball rolling to a special prosecutor and the federal goverment injecting itself into the case. At the local level, there were NO BALLISTICS tests conducted and this key evidence was not discovered until the GOVERMENT got involved. The FBI has conducted all the necessary tests and we will see what charges will be filed. The public made enough noise that the state and the federal goverment had to act. Forget personalities, no matter what color of their skin, there voices have no RACE or SKIN COLOR. Its 3pm, lets see what they bring to the table. Peace TOS 4/11/12 302pm [/QUOTE]
