Got Away With It Colony

Once again, a jury got it wrong. George Zimmerman may not have intentionally killed Trayvon Martin, but his actions caused the child's death ... manslaughter for sure. But instead of making Zimmerman serve time and find justice for a young man's death, the jury sets him free.

Race aside, the dispatcher told him to stay in his car. Instead he takes his gun, removes himself from his car and approaches Trayvon. Regardless of who started the alercation, it wouldn't have happened if he'd done as the dispatcher instructed.

After the Casey Anthony debachle I had decided not to follow anymore high profile trials. I haven't but I can still be offended by the result. I believe the jurors can't handle the circus that comes with high-profile cases and are too concerned with what the public thinks of them. Prosecutors in Florida seem to be great speakers (opening and closing arguments) but are not good at piecing the crime together for the jurors to help them visualize and feel what happened. However, the defense attornies are great at creating doubt.

I've decided that since we can't count on jurors to make the correct decisions, we as a society have to protect ourselves, hence my idea...

It is because of this that I've come up with an ingenius plan. I think we should develop a "Got Away with it Colony" for those who commit murder/manslaughter but get acquitted. It would be similar to a leper colony where they would be quarantined away from society. The king and queen of this colony would be George Zimmerman and Casey Anthony. Besides being ostracized the members of the colony would be constantly watching their backs wondering when one of their own might kill them ... literally looking for a knife in their back. I have serious doubts that my colony iea will take place so I will go to the one action that should take precidence ... prayor.

Truly, I'm not making light of the situation. I feel so bad for Trayvon's family and friends because justice was not served. It wouldn't have take the pain away but it would have given them some peace. So, my prayers are with them ... God bless you.
