which makes this whole trial a sham. there's no eliminating that doubt. just wasting taxpayer dollars to eliminate the appearance of a racist justice system

As a grown man, it's reasonable to doubt another grown man should ever feel the need to use a gun to solve a conflict with a boy whom he outweighs by a hundred pounds. Simply invoking "I was scared" should not relieve anyone from all accountability. Thus we have trials, and in this one there will be every attempt made to suss out what Zimmerman's mind-state was at the time of the incident. You may not understand the intricacies, but experts will testify to his behavioral patterns and whether or not what you call "overeagerness" was in fact something more insidious. Then the jury will decide if his invocation of self-defense is reasonable.

I hope that helps you fathom why we has trial.
