But if they just let it play out they can't control the outcome. Consider the fact that the process did play out in the Trayvon Martin shooting, and the shooter was ultimately found Not Guilty. So now Martin's parents are adding their voices to the lynch mob in THIS case ... because they weren't satisfied that there was justice done in the case of their son.

Reasonable people agree to trust the process, even accepting that the process is not (and cannot be) 100 percent perfect. Look at the numbers of old cases that have been re-opened and reversed based on DNA analysis that wasn't available at the time of the original crime and trial. But we have a Constitution, and it provides for trial by jury. But unreasonable people who are more interested in their own agenda than in true justice don't really care about the process. They want a lynching.
