Change George Zimmerman's Court Date

The Issue

I am simply outraged. George Zimmermans next court date is Feb. 5th. Trayvon would be turning 18. It seems that the state of Florida is catering to George Zimmerman. Why would the judge or the prosecution make this court date? Are you trying to rub this in the Martin Family's face? They have lost their son to senseless gun violence from this dangerous man. Why should they have to suffer on Trayvon's Birthday? I feel this is mockery. I feel that the courts are trying to diminish Trayvon's character and spirit. We want this court date changed. This is direspectful. This is disgusting. I am asking all the true Trayvon Martin supporters to sign this petition so Judge Nelson can re arrange this court date. The Martins have been through enough this past year. They do not need any more drama with a fresh new year. Let Trayvon rest in peace, not in mockery.
