I think my irony meter just went all asplodey

"I would like to professionally continue my education and hopefully become an attorney. I think that's the best way to stop the miscarriage of justice that happened to me from happening to somebody else...[I am] a scapegoat [for] the government, the president, the attorney general...I don't know what they're thinking or why they're thinking it, all I know is that they're doing it. I don't know what agenda they have."
—George Zimmerman, who was acquitted in the killing of Trayvon Martin

Here's the problem. He was acquitted under a very bad law under dubious circumstances. So if he really wants to stop the miscarriage of justice, he needs to get the stand your ground law repealed, stop ALEC in its tracks and get it repealed at every state that has passed it, then ask for his acquittal to be reversed and put himself in prison. That would stop the miscarriage of justice.

But that's probably not what he's thinking is the actual miscarriage of justice. At a guess, I'd think that he's talking about being publicly shunned and he might have problems getting a job. Well, that's called consequences when you became a public figure, whether you intended to be a public figure or not. That has nothing to do with justice, that is the court of public opinion, dude.

I wonder if I could sue him for asploding my irony meter...
