George Zimmerman
 

Looks like our boy George, the poster child for gun rights and the stand your ground law has gotten himself arrested once again. Maybe the gun rights folks should pick a different poster child. This guy is more screwed up than OJ.
(Obviously this is my own personal opinion)
But facts are facts......

Link?

And where is it shown that gun rights people chose Zimmerman for anything?

Some anti gunners being caustic, again....and as usual.

Btk

This CNN link below says details haven't been released yet of his arrest for a "disturbance call".

I don't think anybody here would argue that he's a choir boy nor that he's probably pretty screwed up. But that's not a reason to re-try him every time he gets stopped or hauled in by police.

Not to excuse him, but I think there are a lot of people out there who are probably LOOKING for a reason to get the guy prosecuted for something again, who could include cops. Many would like to haul in a "big fish" and receive the accolades.

Fortunately, we are tried in a court of law on the single indictments made against us, not past indictments already tried resulting in "not guilty" by definition of the law.

George Zimmerman arrested in Florida - CNN.com

He his being profiled because the color of his skin right ?

Anyone want to bet that it has to do with a girlfriend and not a gun.

He is the poster child for nutty girlfriends .

It seems to me that the anti gun rights folks are the ones that have chosen him as their poster child in support of their agenda.

I wouldn't be surprised if the administrator moves this thread into the political forum, shortly.

You must have missed the part where the Florida Stand Your Ground Law was NOT part of his defense.

A fine lad -

ilovetv: you are such a common sense individual....always spot on

And this topic has to do with The Villages in what way? Also, didn't the Political Forum go away?

There is no political forum.....................................

Only a part of the jury instructions.

It's news. And if a jury is involved the influence of the media is always there no matter what a juror might say about being objective. We just need jurors who are better educated about the US and State Constitutions and the like as well as to the tricks and failings of the lawyers and judges.

George Zimmerman seems like quite a hothead and the media attention seems to have increased that passion rather than ease it to any degree.

I see no comparison though with OJ who seems like a very cold blooded murderer.

I agree. I am changing my mind about him. He doesn't seem to have any common sense.

Police just had a press conference and said Zimmerman pointed a shotgun at his present girlfriend. She managed to get outside and called police. When the police arrived Zimmerman was barricaded inside the apartment, but police were able to enter and arrest him. Zimmerman has been charged with assault, battery and criminal mischief, according to deputies. He was taken to the Seminole County jail.


Lost track of all the encounters Zimmerman has had with law enforcement since he was acquitted of murdering Trayvon Martin.
