George Zimmerman sues Pete Buttigieg, Elizabeth Warren for $265 million

George Zimmerman wants a day in court against two of the leading Democratic presidential contenders, accusing them of defamation.

In a lawsuit filed Tuesday in Florida, the man who killed Trayvon Martin in self-defense in 2012 accused Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Elizabeth Warren of “maliciously defam[ing]” Mr. Zimmerman, using the killing “as a pretext to demagogue and falsely brand Zimmerman as a white supremacist and racist to their millions of Twitter followers.”

Mr. Zimmerman was acquitted of all charges on traditional self-defense grounds, because Martin attacked him and beat his head against the ground, supposedly for profiling the black teen while on a neighborhood-watch shift.

He should sue all the Hollywood leftists who defamed him as well such as Spike Lee.

“Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today. How many 25th birthdays have been stolen from us by white supremacy, gun violence, prejudice, and fear?” Mr. Buttigieg tweeted.

lee is a piece of trash.

He admits getting beat up by Italian kids when he was younger and that’s why they are depicted so terribly in his movies.

That POS

If these commie Aholes had to pay a million dollars a word that they slimed a decent innocent citizen then they might not open their pie hole.

He almost got an elderly couple killed while this Trayvon stuff was going on. He released on the internet what he thought was Zimmermans address and phone number, but it was in fact the phone and address of an elderly couple who got endless death threats and eventually I believe they did sue Lee and he settled, but Zimmerman has never sued Lee. If that was me, I would be filing lawsuits endlessly against that scumrat until I had every last penny of his

This is good. I would love to see a jury award every penny.

For sure- If HE can’t succeed in that, no one is safe.

Liberals have the idea they can accuse and smear anyone for anything.

I recall that Zimmerman sued NBC (over the doctored 911 tape), but some Democrat judge in Florida tossed out the lawsuit. Did that ever make me angry when I first heard about that one.

If the judge tossed it, he can bring it again, can’t he?

Wouldn’t it be ironic if the Left finally gets its’ comeuppance by suing all the cheap political ploys and remarks they make due to the legal system so many of us wanted to reform to stop nuisance lawsuits . . .

Lee is a piece of trash

He's a piece of Schiff. Why anyone would give Lee the time of day is beyond me. He isn't even capable of communicating in the American language although he is born here .

The following comments are from my website scrolled to after the article on Parkland Florida and the war on the NRA which should have been about the promise policies used at that school.

The leadership of the so called political opposition (Republican) will wonder why as they lose a crucial election because of their inability to stand on principles. When Presidential actions should have been denouced and the police defended. When as President Obama initiated his racial division policy through the abuse of the “Bully Pulpit’ which went unchalanged and subsequently led to attacks on law enforcement. The only person to courageously do so was Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke and has because he is black received the “Uncle Tom” treatment

Clarke decried Obama’s abuse of the “Bully Pulpit” to create racial division which wound up using other similar incidents such as Ferguson MO and NYC.. Where Obama supported by the media would defend the attacker resisting arrest killed in the struggle over a law officers gun. Alledging the attacker was an “unarmed victim” of police brutality because he was black. Subsequently. There were continuous attacks on police ending up in a score of deaths.It Began when Obama used a non descript incident known as The Zimmerman trial and encouraged racial division through his twice use of the “Bully Pulpit”

. Obama defended the black attacker who was killed (a 17 year old 5’11 175 pound Trayvon Martin) by a 40 something year old 5’6” black hispanic (Jorge Zimmerman) working security in an integrated housing complex that was attacked by Martin knocking Zimmerman to the ground and the black youth was killed in a struggle over Zimmerman’s gun.

The media portayed the incident as Martin was an innocent black youth murdered in cold blood because he was black and the guard as a white hispanic guarding an exclusive white “gated”community .

Obama used the incident to declare racial division by using the “Bully Pulpit” declaring Martin was a victim of whites who could have been; First; “his son”, then; Obama himself.

When that inflammatory defense was picked by black gangs It also wound up and was used as an excuse to commit a score of racial assaults ending in deaths and serious injuries.

All the while this was happening in various areas of the country Such as the murder of an Australian visitor from Melbourne Christopher Lane killed while exercising on a Duncan Oklahoma street by members of the black gang known as the Crypts.
Such assaults were described by the press as “black youths with nothing better to do” Although there were some gang members who admitted their assaults were “for Trayvon” but met by stony silence from the democrats or denial from MSM because initially it was dismissed as a Obama miss-speak. As if he didn’t rely on a teleprompter for carefully prepared text checked out by advisers giving him the facts.

Shamefully members of the opposition so called Republicans chose not to condemn this but convenient to ignore. Thus demonstrate they are politically dysfunctional. Unwilling to work with or even recognize legitimate concerns from what they call the tea party who in reality are the Reagan voters of 2016 and unable to congeal into a unified working political unit. They did not learn from 2012,2014 and some continue to blow off 2016. http://www.theusmat.com/index.htm

I am wondering if anyone can get justice when a democrat is the defendant. I hope this lawsuit pans out, but if the case is tried in Miami, there likely would be ‘jury nullification’ and the defendants would get off scot-free.

‘Jury nullification’ got it’s more recent start in the O J Simpson trial. Probably that is why now McCabe won’t be tried as the DC Court would let him off. The opposite is why Roger Stone is facing maybe 9 years in prison. Including Obama/Clinton appointed judges, taking the law into their own hands to make sure anyone who disagrees with their political point of view gets convicted and is sent away.

Change of venue could be in play. I really hope Mr Zimmerman gets justice. That whole incident caused a lot of misery in our country.

two of the leading Democratic presidential contenders?

Fauxahontos is already toast and the novelty of a Sodomite president is fading fast.

It is down to Bernie, Bloomberg or Klobuchar.

“Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today. How many 25th birthdays have been stolen from us by white supremacy, gun violence, prejudice, and fear?” Mr. Buttigieg tweeted.

Since this only infers that Zimmerman was a white supremacist, and seeing that he is a public figure, then it is unlikely that this lawsuit will go anywhere. The President is called a white supremacist constantly.

As for "gun violence" and "fear," well, the police as well as people of every race engage in that in justifiable self-defense. Thus Buttigieg is either condemning any use of a gun to be wrong or he is implicitly accusing Zimmerman of illicit use of a gun, and thereby also opposing what trial by jury concluded.

All of which politically correct inferred accusations can be said to be in order to gain some of the black vote which this impenitent practicing sodomite finds hard to come by.

In addition, Buttigieg is also portraying the violent attacker Trayvon Martin to be a innocent victim, and thus justifying the use of violence by blacks who feel that they being treated unfairly, and thus the racist "black lives matter" movement.

Meaning that Buttigieg sacrifices truth and objectivity on the altar of political correctness.

There aere a lot of Hollywood and Sports weenies defaming him on a regular basis, I can’t wait to see the result of the Trayvon Hoax lawsuit. A whole lot of Lawyers, Prosecutors and Judges belong in PRISON over it and should have already been Arrested once the Documentary Evidence came out about this Major Fraud of a Trial.
