I think it goes in front of a judge first and if Zimmerman has a good lawyer he or she should try to get it thrown out based on stand your ground. In this case Zimmerman could present flat on the ground defense.

I know liberals. And this is clearly a chance for the prosecutor to make a name for herself, which is why she took up the case.

Sad part, there may be enough idiots in America that get on the bench to convict him.

I don't know what other charges could or could not be leveled. 2nd degree murder is a real stretch, and should be thrown out almost laughably.

I think the special prosecutor punted on this, she bring the charges and if a judge thinks there is not evidence to proceed she can say, I did my job.

That could be true as well. We'll see.

This smells like Duke Lacrosse all over again.

I've seen convictions on less evidence. as long as this charge is based on some evidence and not political pressure I don't have a problem throwing it into court. let a judge dismiss it or let Zimmerman plea to something minor.

True RM.

I would encourage you all to listen to the state prosecutor's press conference. Tell me this isn't full of prejudice and politics.

"The sweet parents (of Trayvon).." Wait, the same parents who are ranking in the dough by trademarking his name? Right.

"we came together to get justice for Trayvon"... wait? So this isn't about justice, it's only about Trayvon? Seems odd.

The Chief of Staff for the New Black Panthers is calling for a race war. It used to be that we laughed at this stuff. But it's not funny anymore. It's really coming, very soon.

This hasn't even gone to trial yet! How is the country over if Zimmerman goes to jail? We've said countless time in this very thread that none of us know what happened at all. Quit being so over dramatic about it and let the facts come out as they're presented.

Also, how are they still using the term "white hispanic"? What is that supposed to be?

There are white hispanics (like Zimmerman) and black hispanics (like Sammy Sosa). Though I've never seen such an emphasis put on clarifying the race of a hispanic before...

And there are white African-Americans (like Obama), but they don't use that label in that case. Why is that????

For one, there's reasonable doubt.

Two, a race war is soon to happen if Zimmerman is acquitted. We did this to ourselves. Instead of being Anericans, we decided to divide everybody by gender, class, and race...

Ever notice how liberals are obsessed with race and sex?

Has no one on here filled out any sort of application in the last 10 years? Any time they ask any sort of demographic information, there is always categorizations such as White/Hispanice, Non-Hispanic Caucasion, etc, etc. This is nothing new. The only thing noteworthy is how the media have now clung to it here.

I'm not saying it couldn't happen. But these were the same people who told us that the Tuscon shooter was an ex-Marine. Until we found out it wasn't.
