Will George Zimmerman kill again?
The Examiner ^ | September 13, 2014 | Chelsea Hoffman

Posted on 09/14/2014 4:46:11 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

George Zimmerman is in the news again, and to no surprise it's not in a positive way. This Saturday news report shares that the man acquitted of murdering Trayvon Martin was recently involved in a road rage incident. Lake Mary Police said that the unidentified victim called 911 before and during the incident. He said that Zimmerman pulled up to him and said "Why are you pointing a finger at me?" When the man pulled into a parking lot, Zimmerman allegedly followed him as he was calling police, but left before the cops showed up on the scene.

The man said that Zimmerman threatened him when he said "Do you know who I am? I'll [expletive] kill you." The man also alleges that Zimmerman followed him to his place of employment and waited outside for him. He claimed that he "feared for his safety," but as numerous reports have shared, he has declined to press charges against the man. This would make it the third time that George Zimmerman has slyly gotten out of trouble after being accused of being violent. What led the unidentified "victim" to decide against pressing charges?(continued)

One of the main reasons I think this story is BS is because as. CC permit holder Zimmerman knows the quickest way to get your permit yanked is to threaten someone...

Getting accused of murder for simply defending yourself...its really messed him up.

It does seem like George is in more trouble since the Trayvon assault. I wonder if he has changed neurologically, and hence emotionally, due to having his head bashed on the ground a few times. It's not a question I've seen raised.

Zimmerman's black ancestry is Afro-Peruvian, not African-American (that is, descended from English-speaking slaves in the US) so it doesn't count.

Sooner or later someone may try to kill Zimmerman because of the attitude held by many (and fostered by the media) that he should have been found guilty. I think the only danger of him killing again is if he is again put in a kill-or-be-killed situation.

"I think he was not guilty, but he sure seems like a jackass."

He is no genius, that's for sure. But his fame has made him a target by every idiot seeking their 15 minutes, which can be easily attained, unfortunately.

I don’t know if Zimmerman will ‘kill again’ but I do know without a shadow of a doubt that young black males will with reckless abandon.

Tell me about Mr. Obama’s “black ancestry” and why it “counts” then?

Good point, but if I had been in that situation I’d be setting worlds records for keeping a low profile, and this guy just doesn’t seem to be what he’s doing.

Orlando Sentinel
Complainant: George Zimmerman threatened to shoot me

Rene Stutzman, Staff Writer

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/trayvon-martin-george-zimmerman/os-george-zimmerman-road-rage-threat-20140912-story.html#

A driver called Lake Mary police earlier this week, accusing former Neighborhood Watch volunteer George Zimmerman of threatening to shoot him during a road-rage incident.

Zimmerman, 30, was not arrested.

Lake Mary Police Chief Steve Bracknell said the man, 35-year-old Matthew Apperson of Winter Springs, did not want to press charges, so there would be no arrest.

Apperson told a 911 dispatcher Tuesday morning that he was driving his Honda Accord on Lake Mary Boulevard, made a U-turn and headed west-bound when a Honda Ridgeline truck pulled alongside and someone inside rolled down his window.

“George Zimmerman was the driver, and they were threatening to kick my ___ and to shoot me,” Apperson told the dispatcher.

Apperson said he pulled into a Circle K to find a phone so he could call for help when the Ridgeline made a maneuver to block him and “almost hit my car.”

Zimmerman “said he was going to shoot me dead,” Apperson told the dispatcher.

According to a police report, a store surveillance video showed that as Apperson was walking into the store, the Ridgeline left.

Apperson said he did not see any weapons in Zimmerman’s truck, but police discovered that Apperson was carrying a gun. He has a concealed weapons permit, according to the report.

Two days later, Apperson called Lake Mary police again to report that he believed Zimmerman had followed him and was watching his movements.

Police investigated, found Zimmerman in his Ridgeline nearby, pulled him over and questioned him. He told them he had a doctor’s appointment in a nearby building.

They took a handgun from him but returned it near the end of their eight-minute exchange, according to an officer’s body video camera and patrol car dash camera.

Zimmerman appeared relaxed and at ease, especially shortly before departing. He shook hands with the two officers before climbing back into his truck, the video shows.

Bracknell said Apperson did not want to press charges the second time either.

Zimmerman was acquitted last year of murdering Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black 17-year-old, whom he fatally shot Feb. 26, 2012, in a Sanford neighborhood.

Since then, he’s had several run-ins with police. He spent two days in the Seminole County Jail in November after his then-girlfriend accused him of threatening her with a shotgun, pushing her out the door of their home and locking it.

She later recanted, and prosecutors dropped the case.

Two months earlier, his estranged wife, Shellie, and her father accused Zimmerman of threatening them with a gun as the couple tried to divide up their personal belongings. However, neither Shellie Zimmerman nor her father said they ever saw a gun - only that Zimmerman acted as if he had one and appeared to move his hand toward it.

He was handcuffed that day but released.

"George Zimmerman is in the news again, and to no surprise it's not in a positive way."

So much for objective, neutral journalism, in which the opinions of the reporter are kept OUT of the story, rather than serving as the lead.

Is he being hunted down and hounded by a group conspiracy of sorts? Because all of the cases that have come down so far have been circumstantial. Is this an advanced form of ‘Swatting’?

If not the head bashing itself, the trial and non-stop threats and character assaults by the local lynch mobs, communities perpetually “organized” against him, and of course the lies out of the drive bys in the media would have left him with PTSD.

" Somehow I don’t think we’re getting the whole story!"

Isn't that the norm with reporting today? It's always half a story, with only one side to it.

The entire thing sounds suspicious, I don’t believe it, furthermore many posters here have believed every single negative report about George since the trial as if they were true???

So we are to believe that this person called 911 when the initial incident happened. He was followed, Zimmerman waited out side his place of employment and threatened to kill him and the police did not get there before Zimmerman left? That story right there is another reson we need concealed carry. If Zimmerman wanted him dead, he could have beaten his head into the concrete while waiting for the police to arrive.
