We’ve watched most of the trial of George Zimmerman so you wouldn’t have to.  Tayvon Martin, the “child” to hear the prosecution tell it, is dead.  The State’s attempt to resurrect Trayvon failed, much as its case has failed.  Many observers have excused the State’s poor performance with, “they did the best they could with bad facts.”

Respectfully, the State overreached and overcharged, and even with an aggressive team including a judge who despises the defendant, they have failed to prove the case that they brought.  They brought the charges based on the facts they chose to advance, they failed to take the facts to a Grand Jury and allow 23 common citizens to see the evidence and hear their theory of a crime and posit whether the case merited “murder” versus a lesser charge of man-slaughter or aggravated assault. Coupled with support from the ignoramuses Barry Hussein Soetoro Obama and Eric the ‘Dumb’ Holder the State made hash of Trayvon’s memory.  The State is not a victim of bad facts. It is a victim of racial politics, political correctness, and above all fear.
