Atheists, George Zimmerman and the burden of proof

I'm sure the various details have been talked to death but as atheists our argument is simple, we state the burden is on theists to demonstrate the existence of god and yet with Zimmerman/Martin I hear people that profess to be atheists demand that Zimmerman was convicted despite their NOT being proof beyond doubt that he was guilty.

To expect any group of people grouped only because they share one opinion to have consistent views on other topics is irrational.

That's probably why he wasn't convicted, isn't it?

If you have trouble with people having opinions that you don't think follow from what you presume are their other opinions, your life will be full of disappointment. You went wrong the moment you tried to associate atheism with the opinions of some atheists you've heard sound off about Zimmerman.
