csmsss, you already think that Zimmerman should be acquitted, don't you? Yet the jury is giving him a hard time.
They would give him a harder time if he had to fire more. You know all the "He needed a gun to deal with a 17 year old?" comments? Imagine if he had to fire 5 times to stop the threat. "Zimmerman has to be guilty, nobody needs 5 hollowpoint bullets to stop a 17 year old".
"He was just a vigilante. Look how many times he fired. Nobody needs to shoot more than once" etc. etc.
Regardless of what may or may not be morally or legally right, it doesn't matter if the jury convicts you anyways.
