Dave- I can't read the minds of the jurors and explain why they convicted him. Maybe it was based purely on the facts, maybe it was retribution. I can't even tell you if it was biased or not. I don't know.

And while I understand the social implications of all the years that blacks have suffered in this country, I am also thinking about the Browns and Goldmans who both lost a child. That counts for a lot in my book.

Edited to add my statement was based solely on what the Browns and Goldmans have gone through. In no other way do I feel that the case should have been anything but fairly decided.
