Magda, I think that Zimmerman is very likely to be sent to prison....perhaps not under 1st degree murder [as I think he likely deserves], but manslaughter. However, it should not be necessary to have hundreds of thousands demand the arrest of a murderer - or even have a trial! What is wrong is the inherent racism in the system, and the insane 'stand your ground' and similar laws now being pushed by ALEC and others. Those I fear will not change - not yet. America is still asleep as it is rapidly drawn into the whirlpool of neo-fascism. For sure some in America are awake to what is going on [and some always have been!], but the numbers, sadly, are not yet a critical mass. I fear it soon will be too late....for who has the power to liberate the military giant that is America - only the Americans themselves, I fear. Awake America! Soon! Or pay the ultimate price with loss of all of your remaining freedoms.
