Go away already.
My gawd.

He was taking CLASSES at a local community college, he wasn’t in law school, you twit.
And most people probably couldn’t tell you MOST of the laws of their state because there are so many.
And if he did know of the law you think he sat in his truck thinking “Hey i’ll follow this guy and if he turns on me i can use the STAND YOUR GROUND defense?”

Why would GZ lie about knowing a law that doesnt even apply to his case anyway? It’s a straight up self defense case.

I truly don’t get the hero worship .... what exactly has this person done that is to be so proud of?

Why is he so special that he should be treated different than anyone else that has been charged with a heinous crime? It’s not like he has been charged and falsely convicted and needing help to raise funds for an appeal .... he hasn’t even been to court to prove his innocence at all yet!

Yes, I know that the standard is “innocent until proven guilty” and I believe in that standard .... the difference is that when you are claiming a “self-defense” defense .... well then it DOES become your job to PROVE that you killed someone and it was legally defensible .... he hasn’t done that yet.

I am really trying to understand what is it about HIM.... I mean George Zimmerman specifically .... what is it about HIM .... that creates in the supporters the kind of almost hero worship I keep seeing here.

What has he DONE or SAID to earn that .... certainly it can’t be that you agree with Mark O’Mara when he asks .... if you would have done the same thing George Zimmerman did please donate .... I refuse to believe that is what it is .... I know that the people here aren’t like that. There is no denying that George shouldn’t have got out of that truck and followed the kid .... if he had stayed in that truck and waited for the police .... like he was trained to do .... none of this would have happened!
