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.

"...Then some bleached blond airhead anchor could do a live shot sanctimoniously tisk-tisking about the right-wing racist hatred in the country..."

Meh. As if they (government OR media) need Zimmerman hanging from a tree to do that...see Janet Napolitana in 2009...

“Is Hussein enough of a hint or do you need to see more?”

“Hussein” was all I needed to know from day one.

Unfortunately blacks consist of 13 % of the US population. The 5% who work hard, love their families and are good citizens. The 8% worthless lazy and total racist klowns will never change.

When your parents in the 8% teach their off-spring to hate white people, then race relations are doomed to fail.

Appeasement on the way, via the State Attorney's office!

Hope I'm wrong...

Btw the ABC footage really puts Zimmerman’s story in doubt. No bloody nose. Minor cut on back of head. Not helping his cause.

His bloody nose was treated by EMTs at the scene of the crime before that video was taken. It is in the police report that the first responding officer made. His cuts and broken nose were also mentioned by the officer. As for the wound on the back of his head, it didn't look all that minor to me.

This guy will not be indicted if the evidence is presented correctly, only if lies are allowed, such as this phony video which doesn't show the truth will he be in trouble. The cops let him go in the first place because the evidence clearly pointed to self defense.

Obama needs a hot race war going this summer to get his base out. Look for more BS from the Traitor in Chief.

His base isn't large enough. He's counting on the dead votes and rigged machines.

When blacks get upset they march (and sometimes riot and always loot).

There. Fixed it.

It is possible.

But the Governor who assigned this to the State Attorney is a Republican.

You’ll note when Trayvon’s ill-gotten bag of jewelry hit the news last Friday, the Justice Brothers got the heck out of town and called it a day...

Fast and Furiouser blew up in their face so they had to find a new cause to gin up gun hysteria.

I just saw some article showing how George Zimmerman's picture keeps getting "whiter" by the day...

"Yes to both. ABC has confirmed time and they were discussing him being followed. She heard the conversation and the beginning of the struggle."

If she heard the beginning of the struggle why wasn't she more concerned about it?
Why didn't she try to call back T?
Why didn't she call his parents or police?

Was she not concerned enough to try to reach T later because the struggle was business as usual with T?

I read the story about T's father not knowing about his son's whereabouts till the next morning. Even he called the police to check if T was arrested. IOW, they all knew T was not the angel the media portrays him to be.

"Either way it's a losing situation for Obama"

Particularly given that restrictions on 2A consistently poll as the biggest election loser for libtards...

“she’d have a powerful incentive to spin a tale, now wouldn’t she”

I imagine you could say the same about Zimmerman’s father, couldn’t you?

gas goes up, off mic money, black panthers being ignored by the racist DOJ, EO’s on a Friday homosexual flags in Afghanistan at an Army base, VT last week a homo party on camp the list is endless.

You know that obama and the left have millions of votes put into boxes waiting to go and the racist Holder is out there working to rob this election

I have labled it the Rev Al’s Plantation Call. No one is talking about high gas prices.

You could. However, she's a witness, and he isn't.
