Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire George Zimmerman?

Is he staying out of the news these days?
Hard to believe all that has been five years.

He's been in the news almost yearly since sometimes more often. He done a good thing but is jsut a thug himself!!

George has been through the wringer since offing Trayvon. His one big mistake, was not moving the hell out of the Sanford/Lake Mary area. I always felt he would have avoided all the chit, had he done that.

The guy sure "kicked the pig" and made it squeal.

Who knew that something as trivial as say, personal protection and safety in home and property would strike such a resonant chord with millions of Americans who were tired and afraid of "Thug Life."

BTW after he plugged ol' Travon all the break-ins stopped.. I think he was n to something...

Funny how that works in a bedroom community..


Bettin' the Nike and Fubu store weren't so busy afterward, either.

George should move to the Chicago Target Rich West Side and buy a Glock 17 this time

- I don't care who you are, that is funny right there!

If you actually knew anything about what happened before GZ shot TM your opinion might mean something. GZ's best friend at the time was a Federal LEO that had nothing but good things to say about him at the trial. I watched every minute of the trial.

I don't think he's a thug, but he sure is a dumbass. The guy can't seem to stop stepping into crap. He was perfectly justified in shooting Martin but he needs to learn to stop putting himself into bad situations and get his act together.

The Democrats ruined GZ's life because there should never have been a trial. No way ANYBODY could lead a normal after what he went through, even you.

I used to teach high school and George was a student of mine. Basically a good kid, but was affected by the black/Hispanic gang violence at the time. Wasn't a member as far as I could tell, but was directly affected by the violence between them. Hated gangs, thugs and violence as a result, but felt the need to protect himself. I could see how he would act the way he did both during and after the event that put him in the news. Feel bad for him in a way, but acknowledge his actions led to his situation.

Didn't he try to auction off the gun he used?

" Feel bad for him in a way, but acknowledge his actions led to his situation."

So you think GZ got what he deserved. What actions of his do you believe led to his situation? He didn't do anything illegal or stupid that caused TM to attack him. Did you watch the trial or did you form your opinion based on what you saw or heard from the news media?

So what?

Didn't say he got what he deserved, nor did I imply it. The facts support that George put himself in a situation that led to an attack, in which he defended himself. As a result the attacker died. No one "deserves" to deal with the anguish of killing someone in self defense, and the inevitable legal and public opinion consequences. Do you really think I'd believe a media that coined the term 'white hispanic' to stir up racial animus? Or a president that stirred public opinion against him? Get real. But your response would imply that you believe Georges actions before and after the trial had no effect on his situation. I would disagree.

Yep, he followed and reported a suspicious pos in the neighborhood. I sure wish more folks would.

Didnt TM say something like "yo azz is mine". When the lead hit him, i wonder if those words crossed his mind.

George:
1) Voted for Obama
2) Wanted to be a cop and had a gun that looked like mine
3) Did stupid things
4) Was framed by the liberal media
5) Was framed by the liberal media
6) Was charged by a crooked prosecutor
7) Was found non guilty
8) Did stupid things

George is what we in the business would call a "schitt magnet".

He could do everything right and still attract humanoid, oxygen-thieving schitt into his personal gravitational field.

I don't know if those words did. But that bullet sure did.
