What is the Path to Justice in theTrayvon Martin Case?

We Are Respectable Negroes looks at everything and concludes:

George Zimmerman will walk free--do not be confused, he is not innocent by any stretch of the imagination. I hold little hope that the jury is capable of thinking through the steps which led a vigilante to kill an innocent person beyond the most immediate and final act, where self-defense by Trayvon Martin is interpreted as violent, unwarranted assault by the George Zimmerman faction, those who idolize him, and wish they could have acted as he did that faithful evening.

The question remains: what will the defenders of Trayvon Martin do now?

Small consolation, but a good start would be work to overturn Shoot First laws in every state that has one.
