It's been proven that the police did an exemplary job of treating this case like a textbook homicide.
If they simply high fived Zimmerman and let him play with the lights and sirens on the way home (as the virulent racists keep pretending), then where did all the evidence collected that night and used at trial come from?
No, what this was, was a blatant attempt to media lynch a brown skinned man. Fatty Arbuckle redux, stopped only by 6 jurors who gave their word to uphold the letter and spirit of the law.
And the internet vigilantes are howling at being denied the prospect of Zimmerman being killed in prison.

Im not so sure about it not being about race. Dont get me wrong, I dont think Z decided to do what he did simply because T was black. I do have to wonder about how the police treated this case initially though.
What?They investigated.They did not find proof that a crime had been committed.Thus, they didn't charge. A decision that,now that we've squandered millions on a trial,looks wise in hindsight and was vindicated by a jury.
Did they make mistakes?
Sure. But that happens on every case. No crime work is 100% perfect.In this case, the CSI people really shouldn't have wrapped the body in plastic, that violates crime scene protocols 101 (Ruins any DNA,skin scrapings etc...because it traps the moisture within the plastic,compromising everything).But other than that,their fieldwork was fine.
I'd say it was a whole helluva lot more racist for the city council to be breathing down the cops backs forcing them to lay bad charges on Z than anything Z may have done.
And let's not forget whose racists comments made the trial.From what we know,the most racist person in this whole deal was TM.
ETA-It's funny watching the racists move the goalposts.First it was that Z was racist. Once it was repeatedly proven he's a latin (Possibly with black roots),now it's not Z that's the racist,it's the system. What's the next line of defense-it's Obama who's the racist? Or maybe Holder...
