Are we sure this isn't all just some kind of huge extended prank by the onion? It's pretty surreal.

Life is coming up roses for  Zimmerman it seems. He got to rescue a family who had a car accident. No doubt he will soon join the police force so he can give back to the community.

Wait, I think that is already going to happen.

Funny Stush should have mentioned this, because The Onion ran a story a couple days ago that Zimmerman won the lottery and there were enough enraged responses that it made it onto literallyunbelieveable.com

Just heard on the radio, so no source.

Zimmerman and his wife are going through a divorce, and things escalated.  Wife said he smashed her iPad and threatened her father with a gun.  The news bite played a portion of the 911 call.

Still having a mancrush on your boy, Hannity?

The fact that there's a divorce has been popping up in the news, but I hadn't paid it any mind because at that point it was almost like Celebrity News.

The 911 call is new though.

It always comes out you know. Idiots can't hide that level of stupid forever.

Floridan black woman sentenced to 20 years after firing an intentional warning shot at abusive husband who strangled and threatened to kill her.  Stand Your Ground defense ignored completely.

Do we need to go fight another war over this shit?  It's getting laid pretty damned bare down there.

Briefly noticed there was a shitstorm wherein Shinra no-joke attempted to defend this verdict. Ye gods, Shinra.

The judge overturned the 20-year sentence, and will conviene a new jury to consider the case. Thank christ.

Uh, from what the article looks like, the judge kind of agrees with Shinra (and me, for that matter). Jury may end up deciding differently next trial, but the judge specifically said "We reject her contention that the trial court erred in declining to grant her immunity from prosecution under Florida's Stand Your Ground law." Regular self-defense is, in general, even harder to get away with than stand-your ground laws. I wouldn't be surprised if the child endangerment part got reversed, but you can't leave the situation, arm yourself, come back, and then start shooting.

That quote was not particularly inspiring, no. Still, there's at least a chance we might get some shred of actual justice here.

What amazes me is that he had a girlfriend. What about George Zimmerman at any point over the last two years would just seem attractive?

I imagine that with very popular books spawning movie series and featuring abusive relationships as the acme of romantic love, it could make lots of people who aren't currently in an abusive relationship think that they're exciting? I dunno.

Did you guys sleep through the huge groundswell of support this man received, or are you of the impression that only one gender is capable of seeing violent hate as a virtue?

It's basically unheard of for a high profile criminal to NOT begin receiving fan mail and a good portion of it is from people of the opposite gender. MANY convicted murderers get married in prison.

But Zimmerman was acquitted!  :hurr:

Yeah but the sheer number of people that were supporting Zimmerman for murdering an unarmed teenager was overwhelmingly fucking depressing. He had a lot of support.

I mean, I like to believe most of it was knee-jerk reaction to the fact that Trayvon's murder brought the Stand Your Ground law into question.
