  From Huffpo: "The murder charge indicates prosecutors plan to prove Zimmerman shot Martin with malice, though without premeditation. A manslaughter charge would have required prosecutors to prove only that Zimmerman acted unlawfully and with criminal negligence in shooting the teen."

  I question whether they can prove malice, given what we've seen so far. Why didn't they just go for manslaughter and be done with it?

  • malice will hinge on "coons" and the fact he went after him after the cops said not to.colin_s
  • I'm not sure being racist equals malice in this case. He overreacted. Race was involved. Malice? I don't see it.monkeyshine
