Mayor Nutter issues statement on Zimmerman verdict | 6abc.com



I don't understand why every politician has to have a public view on this

An MMA fighter doesn't even need to have a bag of skittles to be hell for dangerous and they are wearing padded gloves.

I am VERY disappointed in Nutters comments. Up until reading them I have always been VERY impressed with his stances on different things such as the curfew that was necessary a year or two ago, and the verbal dressing down he publicly gave to the youth of his city.

He is a really good, standup guy from what I've been able to determine. I expect that emotion is entering into his thought process on this, and/or evidently he did not follow the facts and testimonies of the trial.

I've got mixed views on Nutter (actually having to live here) but those comments were not good. Its only going to fuel race tensions within a city which is already very racially tense. In either direction, I can't justify any "coming out" and taking sides on this case not being in the courtroom, other than something meant to keep the peace.

Yes, it does seem that his words would throw a bit of gasoline on the fire.
