Bill Maher On George Zimmerman Tape: Is There Any Doubt That He Is A ‘Big...Liar?’

Bill Maher got really fired up on his show tonight over the Trayvon Martin shooting, and tore into George Zimmerman for his pithy defense of his actions that night, bluntly calling him a “big f!@#ing liar.” Maher showed the tape of Zimmerman, which may or may not disprove the claim that Martin broke his nose and fought with him. Maher thought Zimmerman’s claim was completely ridiculous, and asked if the tape was definitive proof that Zimmerman was lying about the struggle.

Panelist Van Jones noted that in most cases, the families of the victim tend to trust that “the police is on your side,” but since the police didn’t arrest Zimmerman due to the stand your ground law, Jones admitted that he wasn’t sure how to make his kids safe if they couldn’t trust the police or wear hoodies or whatever else may be too dangerous for them. Maher asked if at this point, anyone could doubt that Zimmerman was lying.

Rich Galen made it clear that no matter what kind of person Martin was, he didn’t deserve what happened to him, and tried to point out that teenagers die needlessly due to traffic accidents, but Maher steered the conversation back to the topic. He said that if it was true that Zimmerman had a broken nose, blood would have been all over his shirt in the video. He asked why “the right [is] so anxious to defend George Zimmerman” and suggesting that everyone is rushing to judgment.

Aren’t we lucky to have folks like Bill Maher, Roseanne Barr, Spike Lee, et al? I mean think of the time we can save by just calling upon these pillars of our society to pass judgement on people without any regard to the law or our justice system!! (Do the names Tawana Brawley, the Duke LaCross Team and Richard Jewel come to mind?) If Zimmerman is found to be completely innocent and to have acted in self-defense, don’t hold your breath that any of the usual suspects will ever apologize!

President Obama: “Let me be clear. Our unemployment, economic, and energy problems are not going to disappear overnight. But if we persevere with hope and change and uh, uh, unicorns....look! Squirrel!”

Let me list some of the things in life that can be assured:

Death
Taxes
Joe Biden being a screw up
Al Sharpton exploiting race
Bill Maher being an idiotic ass...

Wonder if the time will ever come when people like Trump, Maher, etc will be considered irrelevant?

Democrats killing democrats whats unusual about that..
Unfortunately democrats killing republicans is not rare either..

What “IS” rare is republicans killing democrats..
But that might become common too after the Obamanoid resumes command..

Bill Maher is a flaming ignorant idiot.
No police department in the country would use that low-res video to determine if the guy had a broken nose and head injuries.
Nor would any jury trial convict on the basis of that video.

It sounds like you’re saying we should sit down, shut up and let the lynch mob have its way. If not then I don’t get why you are admonishing us. We’re not the ones who went on the attack here.

“Why are they launching a race war?”

Launching?

The attacks on whites from blacks, and immensely aided by Leftists in government, has been going on for decades.

The only thing keeping it from going hot, into a real war, is the lack of return fire from white Americans.

That’s not what I am trying to say at all.

I want people to get angry, but I want them to be angry intelligently. This is being driven by somebody somewhere. People are being goaded. Tensions are being inflamed. We need to brain this out.

OK, I get your point. I think you can relax a bit. I have seen plenty of intelligent commentary and numerous posts discussing the fact that this is agenda-driven and planned over the last week or more. I don’t mean to be dismissive of you but you’re far from the first to notice that.

That, and the EMTs on the scene cleaned him up. But they didn’t get the large contusion on the back of Zimmerman’s head caused by the thug slamming it into the cement.

Bill Maher is as azzh@le.

I have talked to my friends. Some of them happen to be of other races. All of them are intelligent.

We share the same view on this insanity...

My guess is that those probable cause laws were strengthened over the last fifty years precisely in response to the old Jim Crow laws in many cases. Now here we have the professional race hustlers complaining about them. Do they want to make it easy peasy for cops to arrest people and charge them?

If so the GOP has traditionally been the party to go to for laws that are tougher on criminals. Am I to understand that Rev. Sharpton and Rev. Jackson want laws that make it easier to arrest and convict people?

What's that, Al? I can't hear you over the crickets.

“I like it when “little bill maher” sticks his big schnoz into the rift, what a sorry excuse for a comedian, he is “the” joke.”

Add Humsn being Ann biped to the list of things he’s a sorry excuse for...
