Well you'll have to show how I was wrong. I gave my opinion about the affidavit. If you can show how that affidavit can be used to make a second degree murder charge stick, go for it. Alan Dershowitz says it is not sufficient and I agreed with him. Neither of us said that it was the ONLY factor in this case; however in his opinion the prosecution does not have a sufficient case from any evidence to make it stick. I have not said that or agreed with him because I don't know. But I do believe his credentials are sufficient to characterize his opinion as an informed opinion.
Once again, you make the blatant error that an affidavit stands alone sans an actual review by the judge and then an actual trial by jury (if the judge rules such). The affidavit merely facillitated the arrest...no more, no less.
THAT was my only point.
The affidavit is also being cited by ALL the media sources as the primary justification for the arrest AND bringing charges against Zimmerman. Neither they, nor I, nor Dershowitz has suggested that the afrfidavit alone will be used in an attempt to convict him. Geez, some of you people would argue with a post and manufacture all manner of myths rather than just have a conversation about a point in this case.
Geez, you can't tap dance around your initial statements and what they imply...the chronology of the posts won't let you. So don't get all pissy and accuse me of "manufacturing" anything. If YOU cannot convey EXACTLY what's on your mind to print, that's not my problem.
The moot point of your first sentence in your latest response essentially echos what I previously stated. Dershowitz is bitching as if the affidavit is the be all, end all.....it's NOT. The judge will decide if this even goes to trial....but the affidavit was sufficient for ARREST. Deal with it.
