Read through several news sources today that Zimmerman is going to be facing charges of second degree murder for his killing of Trayvon Martin. I cheer. I'm pleased with this news.
Good.
It is a pity that it took the efforts of hundreds of thousands of people to get Trayvon's murder in the face of law enforcement. It is a pity that Sanford's police department could not be moved to do the right thing from the very start.
Of course I want justice for Trayvon. It is the very least his family deserves from this country.
Part of me wonders if Zimmerman will actually stand up like a man and step out from behind his father's shadow? I don't think he will.
Mumblings & grumblings: Politics, crime, and other assorted notions occupying my thoughts as I muddle through late middle age.
