Our criminal justice system is what it is. Like it or not, it is our system.
Now that the George Zimmerman trial is over and the verdict is in, all of a sudden our president decides to not remain neutral and be silent. He makes statements that can only make race relations worse. He is supposed to be the president of all the people, not just the African-American population.
Where were Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the NAACP when O.J. Simpson was found not guilty?
Zimmerman, as stupid as he was to kill Trayvon Martin, is “not guilty” as found by a jury of his peers. Like it or not, that’s the verdict and that’s the way our system works. The White House needs to stay out of it.
