Santorum: Zimmerman ‘has a very sick mind,’ motive ‘a malicious one’
The Daily Caller ^ | March 25, 2012 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 03/25/2012 10:22:54 AM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

On Sunday’s “Face the Nation” on CBS, Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum explained that his view of the Trayvon Martin shooting differed significantly from the one held by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Gingrich was critical of President Barack Obama’s reaction, but Santorum placed the blame on accused shooter George Zimmerman’s mental state.

“Well, you know, obviously, I’m not privy to what’s going on in someone’s mind,” Santorum said. “Obviously, in my opinion, someone … has a very sick mind who would pursue someone like this. This is clearly a heinous act. You know, there are a lot of people who have a lot of distorted views of reality. It’s a tragic, tragic case. And my heart goes out to the parents, too. I can’t imagine what they’re suffering, losing their son in such a horrific way. All I would say is that, whatever the motive is, it was a malicious one, and a very, very tragic one.”

"Yeah, those Skittles they’re REAL DANGEROUS! The man was unarmed...Zimmerman was told NOT TO FOLLOW him. He followed him.

Treyvon’s girlfriend was on the phone with him when Zimmerman, DISOBEYED the 911 OFFICER’s request that he meet the cops by the mailboxes, and went after the kid.

IS THAT YOU, NEWT?"

So have you participated in a march yet? Do you have your hoodie and your Skittles ready to go? Don't forget a candle.

BTW, how do you disobey a request? I wasn't under the impression that a 911 operator's instructions must be followed under the law.

Thank you very much for planning to vote for Newt in PA!

You’re absolutely right about down-the-ticket elections in November, and they’re the reason none of us can stay home!

God bless you!

That's right...this was mentioned in some article I had read where it was raised.....Zimmerman was under no legal restrictions they can only suggest...which they did. Catherine, here's something very interesting which is not getting into the news. This article was in Feb....Published : Monday, 27 Feb 2012, 4:55 PM EST.....and long before the media hype and soon after the incident.... Martin's mother tells what happened: "He walked out of the house to go to the store. He was going to the store," she said. "He doesn't know anybody here. He just came down here, so he was bored, so he walked down to the store. He was on his way back home. I'm living down here. ...."HE WAS SITTING ON THE PORCH".... and this man killed him." http://www.myfoxorlando.com/dpp/news/seminole_news/022712-man-shot-and-killed-in-neighborhood-altercation#ixzz1qAXJAAik

"You're right. With all respect to my FRiend Mountain Mary, that assertion is pure poppycock!"

Thank you, Onyx. I know she doesn't mean it in a malicious way at all...that doesn't fit with what I've seen of Mary.

“What do you think?”

I think there’s already enough lurid hyperbole to go around.

Zimmerman had no right to be pursuing this kid.

He had as much a right to move about the public areas of his community as any other resident or guest.

wow I am quite ‘pro’ Santorum but this is a major major foot in mouth moment.......he has no business discussing this matter so publicly, let alone casting judgement on someone’s character whom he knows extremely little about.....

Newt didn’t. He said wait and see.

Unless you can show me otherwise, but I don’t think you can.
