        Maybe Zimmerman should be added the 2013 Death Watch thread (if he isn't already).

              It seems the early reports were wrong.

              http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/09/us/geo...html?hpt=us_c2

              That the media is so closely watching every move Zimmerman makes, then gleefully reporting when something like this happens - facts be damned - tells me that the priorities of what the media should be doing are a complete clusterfuck. There are more important things going on in the world that are of greater concern than what a man acquitted of 2nd degree murder are doing.

                Well, he is a celebrity now, and given all the exposure that came from the trial, anything he does that involves law enforcement, and in particular, a gun, will get headlines.
                Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

                For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                  A fair point, though it's not the entertainment news people that are following his every move.

                    As we all know, the most reliable eyewitness testimony comes from a spouse you're divorcing.
                    Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                      Isn't he also a spouse that's divorcing? So, are you saying that in this case George Zimmeran's testimony isn't reliable either?

                        I'm saying you're a rube for falling for that story told by his soon to be ex wife about him and the gun. I've seen an incredible amount of bullshit spewed by people that are divorcing about their spouse.

                          Yep, Zimmerman is a true hero and always has been in his actions!
                          Tell Graham to see. And tell Merrill to swing away.

                                I know a woman who got around spousal privilege to get her husband falsely charged for fraud. Some people turn bat shit crazy and do outrageous things and tell some fat lies when they're getting divorced.
