Brian, Let the trial or dismissal play out. There will be reviews of stand you ground. As you know the courts have to work with precedent and logical interpretation based on standing laws at the time of the event.
I think it is you, as much as you say it was your brother, who is conflating hypothetical issues with an alleged crime and trial that have specific laws and evidence to that case at that place and time.
Getting sprayed with pepper spray by a girl for being too close is different than being on the ground getting your butt kicked. I don’t want to debate that too much because the court will.
When it first came out I was very much leaning towards Zimmerman’s guilt. There was a lot of misinformation and manipulated info in the press. As time as passed I think it potentially looks better for him in a legit trial.
His father, the ex Judge, is another armchair quarterback at this time. He certainly is powerless at this point. At best he helped George not to do self incriminating things.
This is a really dramatic thing that happened, do you think George would be out eating snow cones and playing tennis? Doesn’t make sense to complain about his laying low. He cooperated with the law 100% up to his incarceration.
BTW I noticed you clipped my comment to read totally different from what I wrote. Work for MSNBC much?
