Yes, Georgie Zimmerman is a killer! There is no doubt he killed Trayvon Martin. That was NOT the issue of his trial!

Zimmie's wife, Shellie, called the cops on Zimmie saying he threatened her and her dad with a gun.

I am glad you think that Casey Anthony, OJ Simpson and Georgie Zimmerman were all NOT GUILTY of their killings.

Shelley recanted and agreed not to press charges as soon as they said they were going to check the security footage and talked to her attorney's. And the word "killer" is too strong of a word for someone acquitted of murder. And the term "trailer trash" is ugly. I had to live in a trailer for months after Hurricane Andrew in Miami and after Katrina in New Orleans. I would greatly appreciate you respecting the feelings of people who have or must continue to live in trailers, as they are not all "trash".

What word would you use for someone who has killed another person besides "killer"?

What word would you use to describe OJ or Casey? Innocent?

"committed an act in self defense" and "not proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt" just like our great justice system says.

Anyone that respects the legal and justice system, which mature Americans should do. I did not say I thought they were totally innocent, but it is the best system there is. I think many, many people feel the same way if they are intelligent and thoughtful.

Yes we should stop picking on George Zimmerman and Casey Anthony, they are both innocent contributing members of society now. Both werebfound innocent by the Florida Justice System.

The police are talking to other witnesses and looking at the home security video tape so I would not jump to conclusions yet. She has been nailed for purgery/lying before.

Good to see someone taking an objective stance on this matter. Cannot say I like George Zimmerman at all and still believe he should never have gotten out of the car in the Trayvon Martin matter but let's wait until the evidence is out there. Lawyers on both sides twist things in their side's favor. That's our adversarial justice system at work.

I do not see him being insane though if he did what she claims. He is a hero to some people and he probably now has a huge chip on his shoulder. It sounds like he has become incredibly arrogant thinking he can get away with almost anything as he did shoot and kill an innocent man who was also defending himself from a man with a gun.

The reality is that Zimmerman is a killer. He was found not guilty of murder by reason of self defense (the stand your ground law was never a factor in his trial). Regardless, he killed another human. That fact will never change and it would be nice if both sides would get their facts straight.

As to these allegations by his wife, they are just that -- allegations. Doesn't mean they didn't happen; just means that for whatever reason, the allegations were retracted. It also means that they may well have not happened or been grossly exaggerated. It is entirely possible we'll never know. Police have a tendency to not investigate once something has been denied and retracted -- they have enough on their plate without worrying about the he said/she said stuff.

Personally, I'm tired of hearing about him. I don't care that he's gotten pulled over for speeding. I don't care that he's getting a divorce. I don't care if he's living in a mansion or a trailer or is homeless. I'd care if he was hired as a police officer or killed another person. I'd care if he was killed. Otherwise, I wish the media would stop with all the non-news about him. There are much bigger and more important issues out there.

What word would you use for someone who has killed another person besides, "killer" soldier, policeman, a citizen protecting his family and property.




I am not going to judge Zimmerman that was already accomplished by a jury of his peers. I am going to make an observation that because of societies cruel and unusual pronouncements, etc of Zimmerman guilt irrespective of the trial Zimmerman and his family are at their breaking point. How do you suppose you would react if the media made fodder of you and your family 24/7? I mean how much longer are they going to feast on this guy's bones?

A civil society would have slammed such tactics rather than edge it on. What are we becoming????????????????????????????

I agree with btk concerning the remarks about people who decide to live in trailers. the nature and orgins of such remarks is why men will never be able to co-exist in peace. its why we have wars, It is why we have discrimination and it is why we have those who consider themselves to be "the elite" The Ï am better than you syndrome" has always and will always exist within human beings

Latest reports are saying that his wife is recanting her story. I wonder if she'll be charged with making a false 911 report?
Zimmerman is going to have this problem for the rest of his life. Anytime he gets into an argument the other party can call the police and say that he had his hand on his holster and it will be all over the news.

Excellent post. Maybe things won't get so inflammatory when the media quits sensationalizing and goes back to actual, factual reporting. Unfortunately, it's all about the almighty dollar.

People have had messy divorces forever. People have been rightly and wrongly convicted/acquitted forever. These things will continue to go on. Opinions will continue to go on. At least, we still have a great country for all of it. Until the media has another something to sensationalize, this will continue to be "news". Any one of us can always change the channel, put down the newspaper, read a book, take a walk, or whatever. We do have choices.

I did not see that she recanted but the she was not pressing charges. Someone hit the old man in the nose and someone broke the iPad. Like most things zimmerman related we will never really know.

I agree but most people who are getting divorced don't punch on and man in the nose and grab and break iPads. But we will never know if its true.

Yep, both Shelli and her father now say they didn't see a gun. This is such a sad, sad story I think they all need psychiatric help.
