    A. I think Zimmerman is guilty.
    B. Can he get a fair trial if one side of the issue won't be satisfied with anything but a guilty verdict?

    B. Voir dire/jury selection will be interesting.

    I'm guessing the first prosecution witness will be the NBC guy who edited the 911 call.

    Or maybe the 911 operator who told Zimmerman to back the fuck off.

    Yup. People with serious issues.

    I think the wording used by the 911 operator could come into play. He didn't explicitly say "Don't follow him", he said "We don't need you to do that". They may be able to find some grey area in that wording.

    You don't think Corey is a solid "3" ?

    That's kind of splitting hairs, isn't it?

    Neighborhood watch guidelines are very clear on not pursuing 'suspects.' And not carrying weapons.

    Could Sean Hannity be called as a witness for talking with Zimmerman? Certainly doesn't enjoy client privilege.
