Hello everybody it is ESL news for July
16th 2013
and the Zimmermann trial
is still in the news
and to recap
this is the trial the name state of Florida vs. George Zimmerman
this is George
Zimmerman
and he was charged we call that charged by the state of Florida
for a murder murderer is when you kill somebody
George Zimmerman was accused
of killing Trayvon Martin
but the verdict
is that Zimmerman is not guilty
so he is free
to go home
many people ask
why are their guns
so easy
let me show you guns
so easy
to get in America
it is because of the second amendment to the United States constitution
the second amendment says
a well regulated militia
being necessary to the security of a free state
to be free
the amendment wants a militia
or an army
but also says here, the right of the people to keep and
bear arms shall not be infringed so they can have it, so here is this bear arms
and it's interesting in English this is a bear
but it also means to have in this case to bear is to be able to
have
so you can have arms or guns
so arms
a r m s is another way for guns so it is law in the United States and that's why many people have
guns
so for top stories
14 arrested
after Zimmerman verdict
protest in L.A. turns violent
so this means to be arrested
arrested this man right here was arrested
so 14 people in Los Angeles California
were arrested
there was a protest
this is a protest
people in the streets marching
and they were marching for Trayvon Martin
the protest became violent because
people began stomping cars and breaking windows
so this is to break windows here are windows and the
people here are breaking windows
so the protesters
broke windows and stomped on cars so the police arrested 14 of them
