The rule of law is only respectable to the extent that it provides justice. There is no moral obligation to respect law that doesn't provide equal justice.
Zimmerman went hunting with a gun, he hunted a young black man, killed him and as soon as "the law" became involved it bent over backward to let him off, beginning with the police on the scene and ending with the jurors who willingly went along with that attempt. I don't respect their verdict, I don't respect the law of Florida that, beyond question, includes an open season on black people.
