Massad Ayoob: DUNN AND ZIMMERMAN

http://backwoodshome.com/blogs/MassadAyoob/2014/02/17/dunn-and-zimmerman/


"There was much fail in Michael Dunn's actions.  The innocence he claimed
was nowhere near as clear as Zimmerman's, based on his statements at the
scene, and the totality of the evidence.  The cases don't really belong in
the same discussion, and neither has a damn thing to do with Florida's Stand
Your Ground law.  Dunn emerges as, at best, a bad example of stupid behavior
whose only positive legacy will be learning points for more responsible
armed citizens.  Zimmerman remains a whipping boy for the willful ignorance
of those who prefer superficial sensationalism to research into the actual
principles of law and justice."

As usual Massad Ayoob provides much needed objective common sense in
evaluating publicized shooting trials, such as the Dunn and Zimmerman cases.
But the facts don't really matter in  either case, do they? After all, the
Leftists are exploiting them for political advantage and Leftists are not
reticent about spreading untruths when advancing their agenda.
