The State WAAAAY overcharged in this case, they'll never prove murder2. They probably could have gotten an involuntary manslaughter conviction, and they might give him that in a plea deal, but murder 2 ain't happening.
And Zimmerman is still getting money from across the country to fund his defense. That's why they re-arrested him and bumped up his bail from $200K to an even mil.
You get one middle aged black lady on that jury giving the rest of them the White Guilt Stink Eye, they'll vote Murder 2.
They bumped up his bail because he lied about how much money he had available. Between that and the stupid interviews digging himself in deeper, the dumbass is practically convicting himself.
You know all that money came from donations, right? You know those donations haven't stopped, right?
You get one intelligent and diligent juror, regardless of race, and you get a mistrial.
Once again you're assuming that we're all victims of statistics. -I- am not 43 times more likely to kill myself because I own a gun. Either I am suicidal or I am not, and I am not. -I- am not more likely to engage in domestic violence because I own a gun. Either I am prone to violence against loved ones or I am not, and I am not.
I also don't have, say, teenage family members living with me who might be prone to sneak in and out of windows at night to avoid my notice. No conceivable reason why anyone who belongs would be entering the home in a manner in which they could be mistaken as a home intruder, and in any case, I'm more likely to aim and speak than shoot first and ask later.
But hey, go on assuming that we're all beholden to statistical averages, and then call -other- people dumbasses for understanding that self initiative is exactly that.
and what ARE the Gun Control constraints in what we saw last week in COLORADO? Pretty fucking stringent laws...
Didn't STOP that joker, did they?
How about Chicago? 200+ murders?
Stop yer horseshit and START prosecuting people and making an example out of them.
If ONE U.S. Marine had been sitting in that theater with a weapon things probably would have turned out differently!
I've read that there were three US servicemen in the theater and that two were shot.
Its pretty silly to swagger and brag that ONE Marine could have/would have been able to stop this man who was carrying thousands of rounds and shot 71 people.

We do not prosecute to "make examples", but the best way to stop gun violence IS to prosecute, that goes for all kinds of deadly instruments-drunk drivers, poisons, planes flown into buildings, and all other kinds of bombs.

Difference being WHAT exactly? Method of EXECUTION?
Dumbass.

So it's not too unreasonable to say, "Hey, we should make sure someone is not a Schizophrenic loon who thinks he's a comic book character before we sell him a semi-automatic weapon and a 100 round clip!

How would that be accomplished?
The NICS background check will report only that which is part of an official record.
How is a gun dealer to determine the mental health of a potential buyer?

Um, yeah, probably you'd have had more fatalities, but Holmes probably wouldn't have been one of them.
The guy had body armor on. He spent a long time thinking about what he planned to do.
Now, give the marines credit, they are very good at what they do, but the fact is, even in war zones they make mistakes. A crowded room with lots of smoke and panicking people and bullets flying everywhere...
This shows how much the NRA has really poisoned this discussion when you see a case where someone having a gun was a bad thing, absolutely, and the answer is, "Well, we just need more guns in that situation."
Crazy.
Gun free zone = target rich environment for wack-jobs, and nothing more.

He was wearing enough armor & protective devices to withstand several shots.
Maybe a mandatory certification/training course should be required before purchasing certain firearms?

All that would have done is make this nutcase a more proficient killer.
Not the outcome you're looking for, I'd bet.

Well, he was denied membership at a gun range...
Gun Range Owner Glenn Rotkovich Thought Aurora, Colorado Shooting Suspect James Holmes Seemed Bizarre | Dark Knight Rises Batman Shooting | TheBlaze.com
Wow a left winger made a movie about it, so did Michael Moore. AGain I dont know why liberals dont punish criminals but want to ban guns? Should we ban Batman? movie theatres? dark rooms? This guy is clearly a moron that thinks he's the Joker and he should be killed just like the Joker, so we should ban the Joker. You guys really are clowns.

Holmes purchased his arsenal over the Internet. There is no way for the Internet to know he's crazy - but the gun range guy knew he wasn't normal.
