...RimJob really knows how to reach into the pockets of his minions. And within minutes of Zimmerman's piece of shit GoDaddy template Website being launched, freepers were lined up posting "I just gave $100, I just gave $50..."

It's just like the people who see Sarah Palin as "stupid" because...like George W. Bush...she is intellectually "incurious." She's smart enough to be a successful grifter of the highest order.

Zimmerman has been positioned as some kind of idiot man-child daddy's boy...he was living at home rent-free when he shot Trayvon...and that may all be true. In many ways, he just seems to be a fucking idiot. But he was smart enough to walk out of that police station without being arrested, smart enough to successfully avoid "street justice" for over a month, smart enough to get an online payment mechanism installed, smart enough to take the money, and smart enough to run.

I'm not praising him in any way. I just think he's a scorpion, like Palin, like Bush. He knows what to sting and he knows how to make an exit.

His parents live in Lake Mary, FL and George and his wife lived in Sanford in that Twin Lakes community.

However, I do agree that he's probably grifting to get enough money to fly the coop.

...which I posted on the 4th...so the "rent free" reference was most likely regarding a point in time where he was living rent-free on daddy's dime, but not the present moment.

George Zimmerman, the man who instantly turned himself into public enemy number one, is an intriguing character for a multitude of reasons. When I read Zimmerman's story, he reminds me of one of my more "interesting" friends who had a similar story in his life. This person was also a wannabe police officer who lived with his parents, dropped out of college and took things way too seriously. There are few men more frightening than wannabe cops who failed the psychological tests.

Another thing about my friend was that his behavior was enabled by his mother. Every time he got into trouble, his mother covered for him, raised money to bail him out and protected him from the consequences of his own decisions. As a result, he grew into a spoiled stalker and public menace who refused to take responsibility for his choices: He beat his girlfriends, threatened his enemies, abandoned his kids and harmed other people. He became, honestly, quite a worthless human being.

George Zimmerman may not have been enabled by his mother, but he certainly seems to have been protected by his father Robert. Throughout Zimmerman's life, he has "mysteriously" evaded the consequences of his actions, likely due to the influence of his dad -- cops aren't always quick to arrest the child of a judge. He even faced charges relating to the assault a police officer, which would have likely resulted in a felony if you or I were in the same situation.

George's father has continued to protect his son in a multitude of ways, starting with allowing him to live at home rent free. After George killed Trayvon, his father immediately wrote a letter to the Orlando Sentinel defending his son. Robert has appeared on national television, making up Clint Eastwood stories that present Trayvon as an enraged killer who simply had to be shot. Robert Zimmerman is the "Helicopter Parent" on steroids, and likely the reason that his son thought he was above the law.

I don't see any blogging at the web site.

However, if this is the 'real' George Zimmerman's web site, well, it is pretty pathetic.

Frankly, I'm beginning to believe that this fellow is several bricks short of a load.

One hopes for his own safety (mostly from himself) and for the furtherance of justice that the special prosecutor does indeed know where he is.

Something is seriously wrong with his thinking. I'd say, thought disorder, paranoid delusions, delusions of gradure, and a personality disorder of some kind like a borderline. He is unstable. I wonder if he is controlling and threatening his wife and kids to stay in hiding with him, yet? I'd hate to be locked up in a house with a rageaholic manipulator. He lies lie a rug, we know that, too.

Is he still armed? I hope he doesn't brandish his gun around his wife and kids. That's illegal.

Did he even graduate HS? What loser. Coward, sissypants, crybaby, wanker.

Just keep on staying classy, George, you're a disgrace to your gender and whatever ethnicity you claim.

George Zimmerman" (Website hits: 284? Huh?)

I sent a comment earlier saying that he be a man and say what he did was wrong. Why did he lie about being injured? Why did he lie about being not racist? Why did he lie that he was the one crying on the audiotape? That was the comment I sent. I used a fake e-mail so I didn't want to get an email from the scumbag.

He's also taken down the OSU graffiti photo but left up the Sign from Pastor Terry Jones' Rally but made it harder to see the arms and hands of the sign.

He's a coward. He's just proving more and more every day that he hid a murder behind Stand Your Ground and ran to daddy for protection.

He's revelling in the "support" he's getting, appears to be enjoying it. It's as if he saved the life of a family at risk of death for himself. Only a sociopath (and a rather unskilled one) could phrase a statement like that and not realize how inappropriate it is.

I hope you are aware that your decision to emphasize yours and your family's suffering during this time and to make not the merest gesture toward empathy with the suffering you dealt out to Trayvon Martin and his family is one your prosecutors will exploit. Bullies and sociopaths usually immediately begin whining the minute they are challenged. It's a pattern of behavior your prosecutors are expert in and will know how to present to the jury. The more you write, the more you ensure your jail term will be a long one.

48. Paranoid Schizophrenics are often highly intelligent and articulate
Wed Apr 11, 2012, 03:19 AM
Apr 2012

Did anyone see A Beautiful Mind? He wasn't a paranoid, but he was a schizophrenic. And, like George, it didn't onset until he was an adult, which is common.

It takes heavy meds and a psychiatrist and acceptance of the problem to even begin to function in the normal world. George has likely been accommodated all his life because usually the family is in more denial than the patient.

Doesn't excuse murder, however. He's also a psycopath/sociopath and needs to be locked up for his own and other's safety.
