My statement didn't go to Zimmerman's trial results (technical guilt or innocence), but the obvious fact that if Zimmerman had not been carrying a loaded gun, and paid attention to Martin, Martin would not be dead.

Zimmerman wasn't even on "neighborhood watch", he was on his way to Target. His mere presence and loaded gun started the events of the night that ended with Martin's death.

I don't know, and am in no hurry to see the riots which (in my opinion) will ensue when the verdict is announced, no matter what the verdict might be.

I think the family has dampened that down alot. Most people simply wanted a trial, including the family. There will always be those anarchists and violence-junkies that will use any excuse to riot.
