I don't think Zimmerman should be convicted of 2nd degree murder from what I've seen. There just isn't evidence beyond all reasonable doubt that he set out with evil intentions and then proceeded to shoot him unnecessarily. While I'm inclined not to believe his sketchy story, It's far from beyond all reasonable doubt that
1) Travon started the violence
2) He felt that he had to use deadly force to protect himself from death/severe injury
The state has a very high burden of prof to meet before they take someone's life away. So I say not guilty, just as I did with Casey Anthony.
That being said... He's probably completely full of shit. He assumed Travon was there to burglarize houses, because he was black and there were some black guys that were doing in the recent past. So he decided to go play tough guy, knowing full damn well he'd just shoot anyone that assaulted him. The problem is, he basically provoked that kind of behavior. Following some guy you don't know for blocks, not identifying yourself, then getting their face (after chasing him down...everyone heard him running on that tape).
I don't want this motherfucker to own a gun. I don't feel sorry for him about all the anger thrown his way. And I really people keep this case in mind when they decide to go play cop.

That's not the standard for second degree murder -- you're confusing it with first degree. For the second degree charge prosecutors just need to prove that he acted dangerously, without care for human life, and killed someone intentionally.

Fat boy is gonna burn - after he gets perforated by a thousand big, black cocks. And good, he should be made an example of and the case should be held as an example when we disband all neighborhood militias and take away the guns of common citizens.

And while I understand that most of you are white children, and thus terrified of black children -- I assure you if you reach adulthood children will cease being scary no matter their hue.

Z man is getting off and the prosecution is helping him do it

Trayboon "NO_LIMIT_*****" Martin and his fat, illiterate retard of a girlfriend get no sympathy from me

Rachel Jeantel basically buried the prosecution. I don't think he intentionally wanted to stalk and murder Martin because he was black, he probably was harassing the kid though and got his ass kicked. By a teenager which honestly is pathetic on Zimmerman's part.

All trials should be decided by popular opinion before testimony is finished. Thy even have trials? They're just a waste of money. Let's just go with our gut feeling and get on with the lynching.

How about the fact that he didn't know the street name in his own neighborhood that only had 3 streets? Or that the medical examiner says that his wounds were probably caused by one hit, not dozens like he had claimed?
