A grand jury is being put together to meet in April to indict Zimmerman. This will be the first step in charges in this case.

Are you a supporter of black causes and blame white or Hispanic people for the plight of the black man?
Tell me. What is your deep seated hatred about this issue?

Is Zimm an agressor by asking a question?
Did Zimm expect his asking the question to be met with a broken nose?
