7 reasons why George Zimmerman will never be free

George Zimmerman trial is just the beginning

George Zimmerman has been acquitted of second degree murder much to the shock and horror of millions of Americans. Zimmerman, who was a neighborhood watch volunteer shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, an African American teenager in apparent self-defense which started a national debate on racial profiling. However the verdict will not end Zimmerman's troubles, and it is likely that he will never be free.

Top 7 reasons why Zimmerman will never be free

National outrage about his acquittal will put pressure on him and his family
He is a symbol of injustice in the eyes of millions and he will be constantly reminded of it
His actions will be remembered long after the debate dies down, meaning down the line, he could face challenges in employment and elsewhere
People will want to distance themselves from him because there's a risk of being associated with his actions
He will face isolation because he will have this huge weight on his shoulders, an angry nation on his back.
He will be a danger to others because communities and individuals outraged by him could spur violence against him in the future.
The fight for justice wont end there, and organizations, movements will challenge the court's rulings and his actions will be constantly reviewed.

Collectively we pray for the #TrayvonMartin family and we ask for calm as we work towards #JusticeForTrayvon. http://t.co/iaTmvOTnIF
