Recall that the FBI interviewed 30 of Zimmerman's associates and only found one "Witness 9" who said he "was racist."

Much as the special prosecutor essentially had to criticize the Sanford PD to even bring the indictment, the DOJ will have to dismiss its own agents work to bring a suit.

Wow, they really can't let go. Addiction to race-baiting, I guess.

Senate Majority Leader calls for DOJ to investigate Zimmerman.

This trial was about the 2012 election and regardless of the outcome was always going to be about 2014 for the Dems. Gotta motivate that base.

If DOJ intervenes and files some civil rights action, the precedent is dangerous, as they will be put in a position of having to explain why they didn't filenthe same action in the next homicide. And the one after that. And the next one...  Holder is a fool, but I hope even a fool sees the danger in this action...

I am pleased that the jury was allowed to come to the natural decision here, and not somehow influenced to come to another one.

Zimmerman's best interests now lay in expatriating from the country.  Or, at least, moving to fly-over America at a minimum.

It is a possibility, however remote, that the White House decided race riots would be bad for the Democrat Party's platform of white guilt. And for that reason, the DOJ was told to mollify the hoodies and Skittles set by "investigating" Zimmerman for some civil rights mumbo-jumbo. If they put Biden in charge, we'll know for sure.

I was going to suggest that DOJ was doing it because they simply wanted to keep the peace, but I quickly realized that was too absurd a suggestion.

Um, wha?

The only gun involved was produced within the state it was legally purchased, months prior to its lawful use (for which it was explicitly designed), from an FFL, after a NICs check was passed by its non-prohibited person owner, who then lawfully and responsibly carried it after fulfilling all applicable state permitting standards.

Which of the President's stated goals to address "gun violence" have -any- intersect with this case?

Zimmerman used a PF-9... interesting.  Had no idea.  I assumed it was something bigger, but didn't really hash it over in my mind.  Just subconsciously accepted it being a service pistol of some sort.

He should have saved his money and not purchased a pistol that can't go 2,000 rounds without a malf.

There's some debate over at the Volokh Conspiracy on that. Check out FL s. 760.32. In theory if the killing is justified they can't and in fact may have to pay damages for trying but it hasn't been run through the courts yet on an actual trial I gather.
