I'm not optimistic, I'm just looking at the legal system for what it is: a tool of the Bourgeoisie to keep the proles in line. Our interests basically never align with the Bourgeoisie but they kind of do in this case. If anything, I think most people are being irrational on here thinking that "hellworld" is real and that reality is out to get us. In a case like Zimmerman's, there wasn't a real threat of popular uprising due to his acquittal, but circumstances have changed since then. They know if he's let off things will only get way way worse, and they're already hurting from the massive economic depression we are in. He's not going to get locked up because they care about the protestors or even because the "rule of law". Only because they don't want a civil war.

People get convicted of murder without video evidence all the time, and there are tons of potential witnesses here.
