Former President Jimmy Carter Says the George Zimmerman Jury Got the Verdict Right in the Murder Trial and Death of Trayvon Martin

And now for something completely different, Jimmy Carter says Zimmerman jury got the verdict right.

As resorted at The Politico, former President Jimmy Carter said in an interview on Atlanta news channel WXIA that the jury in the George Zimmerman murder trail got the verdict right. Well this is not going to go over well with the LEFT, Democrat politicians, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Attorney General Eric Holder. Holder is seeking to go after Civil Rights charges against Zimmerman as Holder fans the flames when there is no evidence that Zimmerman was ever a racist. Oh, and add to it those marching and rioting in the streets, those attacking others in revenge for the verdict and the prosecutors in Florida who lost and still have sour grapes. I have to give Carter some credit on this one. He is actually being rather responsible in his comments and is basing his comments on the law, not emotion. With the insanity, hateful comments and threats that have come from those opposing the verdict, it’s only a matter of time before Carter is referred to as a “creepy ass cracker”.

“I think the jury made the right decision based on the evidence presented, because the prosecution inadvertently set the standard so high that the jury had to be convinced that it was a deliberate act by Zimmerman that he was not at all defending himself, and so forth,” Carter told Atlanta news channel WXIA. “It’s not a moral question, it’s a legal question and the American law requires that the jury listens to the evidence presented.”

Carter thinks America is moving forward and making progress. I sue hope so.
