TAMPA - The father of 28-year-old George Zimmerman spoke out Wednesday night. In an exclusive interview with FOX 35's Valerie Boey, Robert Zimmerman says he and his family have gotten thousands of death threats.
He asked that his face not be shown as he explained what happened the night his son shot and killed Trayvon Martin.
Robert Zimmerman says George Zimmerman was going to the store when he saw someone he did not recognize as living in the community.
"Because there have been a lot of break-ins in the area, he thought that was suspicious that someone would not be walking on the street or the sidewalk. That he'd be walking by the town homes," Zimmerman said.

I know! I live in FL.
Video I saw doesn’t show his face! Even if it did, paramedics had cleaned him up. (so he looked presentable to the booking officer!/S)
Thanks, Irenic...besides being spot on, it is extraordinarily well done, informative and, dare I admit it, entertaining to watch.
A real man, was Charlton Heston.
When things like this happen, I don’t put much stock in what parents say. I don’t take Martins parents claims seriously, either.
Good thing you don’t put much stock in Martin’s parents because they’ve proven liars.
Zimmerman’s story has been consistent and oh yea TWO different investigations showed there was no evidence he did anything wrong.
Do you think he should be arrested anyway? What do you actually believe?
Speaking of Martin’s parents does it bother you the only proven liars in this case so far are on Martin’s side of this case, yet you and some others are looking for conspiracies to convict Zimmerman.
Doesn’t bother you about the lies initial told by Martin’s friends and parents?
Fast and Furious and the Michigan Militia blew up in Holders face. Even liberal judges are having second thoughts on the Obama Holder race war.
>>Its being used as an election issue.
Yep. Observe that not a single recent photo of the 17 Year Old, alleged 6’ 200+lb “football player”, can be found anywhere on the internet.
Quite the sanitization job.
Its good to see Spi(t)e Lee appologized to the old people he scared half to death after giving out their address as Zimmermans.
There usaully is no accountability ammoungst the “justice” League.
I’m sure Spite Lee’s appology was heart felt and not an attempt to be sued for goobly gooks of money.
>>What is Zimmerman some elderly white hillbilly from the mountains of West Virginia?
No. Looks more like he's just some macho half-Peruvian punk with a chip on his shoulder.
>>This is all so dumb.
Yep. "Not with a bang but a whimper." Well ok there was a bang in this case, but the sound our society is making as it flushes itself down the toilet is still pretty much just a whimper.
Meanwhile, in the intermission between the half-Peruvian "hate on blacks" Circus:

Uhuh.
Thanks for posting.
Exactly. As long as Obama can get the eyes off our domestic and world problems and onto stuff like this, then he can rest easy. Have all the headlines on this thug beating a guy nearly to death and the guy having to shoot the kid thinking that if I don’t, I may die here myself. That would have been what I would have done also. If I had been jumped and was on the ground and someone was beating me and trying to kill me, then yes, I would shoot him and worry about it later. This Zimmerman guy is basically lucky to be alive. Or this street thug, who got kicked out of school, and is the president’s long lost son, is some kind of hero.
Speaking of Martins parents does it bother you the only proven liars in this case so far are on Martins side of this case, yet you and some others are looking for conspiracies to convict Zimmerman.
Doesnt bother you about the lies initial told by Martins friends and parents?
OK
I don’t know the details for the FL governor. But even if he is a RINO is better than a Dem in this case. He may not be that at all.
The Truth must be the result. Not try this in the media by propaganda.

“Zimmermans story has been consistent and oh yea TWO different investigations showed there was no evidence he did anything wrong.”
Actually, the lead investigating officer Chris Serino did not believe Zimmerman’s story and wanted him arrested, according to this:

Yes it does require such a consipracy, but it is effective nonetheless as evidenced by some of the moron freepers around here.
bttt
Doesn't look very menacing.
This, OTOH...

>>Why all the hubbub?
Just part of Recreating 1968 for the nostaligic benefit of a bunch of self-worshipping Useful Idiot children who hated their over-indulgent mommies and daddies.
