From Breitbart:
On Sunday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) asked for the Justice Department to prosecute George Zimmerman, who was acquitted Saturday night in the killing of Trayvon Martin. “I think the Justice Department is going to take a look at this,” Reid told NBC’s Meet the Press. “This isn’t over with and I think that’s good. That’s our system, it’s gotten better, not worse.”
Reid did acknowledge the verdict, stating, “I am a trial lawyer and have [brought] over 100 cases to a jury. I don’t always agree with what the jury does but that’s the system and I support the system.”

First, did Senile/Coward/Liar Reid try 100 cases before a jury?
From Biography.com:
Soon after finishing law school, Reid entered public service. He served as Henderson city attorney and a member of the Nevada Assembly before winning election as lieutenant governor of Nevada in 1970. He held that post until 1974, when he ran for a seat in the United States Senate and lost to his Republican opponent, former Nevada Governor Paul Laxalt. One year later, in 1975, Reid lost a race for the Las Vegas governorship. http://www.biography.com/people/harry-reid--21032035 No jobs requiring a jury trial.
From Senile Harry's web site:
After completing law school, the Reids headed back to Henderson where Harry served as the City Attorney, revising the city charter and working on extending Henderson's boundaries by acquiring federal land. His outstanding record helped him win an election to the Nevada State Assembly in 1968, at age 28.
In Carson City, as a young assemblyman, he introduced the first air pollution legislation in Nevada’s history and also worked on laws to protect consumers. In 1970, at the age of 30, Harry Reid became the youngest Lieutenant Governor in Nevada history, winning election as Governor Mike O’Callaghan’s running mate.
In 1977, he was appointed Chairman of the Nevada Gaming Commission, where for five years, he made headlines with his legendary and unrelenting fight to clean up Nevada's gaming industry.
Harry Reid returned to his private law practice for a few years, and, in 1982, won the first of two terms in the United States House of Representatives. In the House, he championed issues important to Nevada families, introducing the Taxpayer Bill of Rights as well as legislation to protect Nevada's wilderness.

The problem, for Harry Reid, is that since he graduated college, there hasn’t been a lot of time outside of government service. Reid was elected to the State Assembly in 1966 and in the past 43 years (when Reid went from 27 years old to 70 – and your humble correspondent went from 2 to 45), the only gap in public service was the two years in the mid-70′s between his term as Lt. Governor and his service on the Nevada Gaming Commission. And during that time he ran for Mayor of Las Vegas, leaving little time to build up a fortune in the private sector. http://nevadanewsandviews.com/archives/2975
So, using even Harry's own words, in a few years, he had 100 cases before a jury. I call BS. Most lawyers probably only have 2-3 cases before a jury in a year- most cases are settled and some cases are dismissed or heard by a judge, so how did Senile/Liar/Coward Harry try over 100 cases in front of a jury in only a few years?
And if Harry truly believed in the legal system, then why not accept the jury's verdict and move on. Instead, he wants the U.S. Department of Justice to carry on the work of the Florida prosecutors.
Reid doesn't believe in the rule of law, unless it fits his narrow little view of his tiny little senile mind.
Finally, Senile Reid is going all out against a Hispanic person. I wonder if the Hispanic community would approve of this?
There is something wrong with Harry Reid. I have no respect for that senile old coot.
