The only thing Zimmerman is famous for is killing an unarmed black teenager. And he is, in many ways, the poster child for Florida’s Stand Your Ground law. “I walk around armed; I walk around with a bullet proof vest; it’s not so much for my safety as it is so much for those around me,” he said. “I can be around my family and something might happen to them. There’s children around me, etc. Those threats… I have to be able to defend myself like any American.”

Seriously, I wish pain and anguish on this gentlemen. What a damn a******. And all the people that want his autographs are probably useless racist f*cks also.
 
Still don't know what he did wrong. Guy's a class act. He saved a family from a burning car.
 
Hey it works for black rappers and I don't hear anyone bitching why not others?
 
Even if you are some huge Zimmerman defender Trayvon's parents still aren't really relatable. They lost their child. They and many others believe their was an injustice that occurred. Lawsuits, media interviews, etc. are all relatively normal actions taken by "victim's families."

Even if you have a different view on Zimmerman in regards to that case, it's sort of an offensive comparison.

And even if you have a different view on Zimmerman in regards to that case, how can you not think "Celebrity Boxing" is anything but classless?

I'll agree to disagree on him posing with gun manufacturers or doing an autograph session at a gun show, but come on now.. dude is not a class act lol.
 
Zimmerman was in the right. That teenager weighed a whole 80lbs. Against Zimmerman, Trayvon was truly a lethal weapon. I'm glad Zimmerman is seeking fame. It makes for an easy target.
 
I find it funny that Zimmerman is actively trying to be a celebrity. Regardless of how you feel about him personally, his 15 minutes of fame are pretty much up.

Yes a class act. Using the fact he killed a teenager to make money and seek more fame. No matter how you feel about the murder case that is not classy lol.

Great outlook. So if you had your name dragged through the mud and your life ruined because of something you didn't do you wouldn't want to make money off of it? Yeah, i bet. Not like he even tried to become a celebrity either, that's just the media at work.

Zimmerman is innocent. That thug tried to bash his head into the concrete and broke his nose. Beat the poor man half to death and all George was doing was making sure Trayvon didn't break into his neighbor's house. The guy's a hero and the world would be a better place with more people like Zimmerman.

No, he's literally trying to profit off this whole thing. Signing autographs and attempting to fix a celebrity boxing match isn't a sign of someone trying to stay out of the limelight.

Ain't no rest for the wicked. Money don't grow on trees.
 
I read this earlier today, such a disgusting thing to do and so much shame to go around here. Zimmerman for trying to profit from this, the people who asked him to come and the people who actually wanted his autograph which I read was only 20 people in 6 hours. The fact that anyone who shot and killed an unarmed teenager is considered by some to be a celebrity is just sick.

What didn't he do? He's on tape admitting to following around an unarmed teenager.. referred to him as an "a******" without knowing what he did.. and then chased him down when he tried to run... all while armed.

You and everyone like you is delusional. That is not behavior anyone in society should be encouraging and it's behavior that should EXPECT to land you in a lot of trouble. He ended up being donated tons of money (which he used to pay off bills) and paid for a high priced lawyer which got him off.

Fine.. a tired discussion.. been over it 100 times..

But come on now.. this dude has gone out of his way to continue and expand his "fame".. Celebrity Boxing? Going around touring gun manufacturers and going to gun shows?

His "fame" is from shooting a teenager.. no matter WHAT the circumstances you should never trade on that.. total degenerate.

Beat the poor man half to death

An outright lie.

I don't think very highly of you.

That's nice. You and everyone else are wrong about Zimmerman. Save it smarty pants Bunz, we know it's your way or the highway. Nobody can have an opinion around here except you.

Why do you even post when you're so miserable anyway? Get a clue, if you don't like discussion then log off.
 
Regardless of the man's innocence or guilt, acting like a celebrity on the blood of a teenager (whether he was a troubled one or not) is not okay. Assuming Zimmerman's story of self-defense is correct, it's still nothing to be proud of and an unfortunate situation that shouldn't have happened. And one that his own stupid behavior caused.

I'm aware the evidence seems to support Zimmerman's story, but no one should ever be proud that they killed someone, especially when it could have been completely avoided.

It sounds like you are trying to shove reason and logic down the throats of Southern Americans. He's my advice: Don't. They aren't worth the attention.

How ironic.. you didn't respond to a single thing I said.

I'm welcome to discuss.. try responding to my actual points. All you said was that I am "wrong about Zimmerman"..

Great logic genius.
 
Regardless if Zimmerman is right or wrong, he's profiting off the death of someone young in a pretty tasteless manner. Imagine if you killed someone by hitting them with your car as they were J walking and completely their fault, would anyone here feel comfortable appearing at a car convention signing autographs or appearing in a car ad?

What points? That he's profiting off killing an "unarmed teenager"? Who was bashing his head into concrete and knocking Zimmerman in and out of consciousness. Oh yeah, totally unarmed, because your hands can't be used as a weapon. You say i'm lying but you don't explain how i'm lying, so why don't you counter what i'm saying? I watch TV just like you, i do my research on these things. What i've heard is what i've heard. No different from you or anyone else.

Okay, i'll agree that if he's going out of his way to profit off of this then it's a bit shady but i stand by Zimmerman did nothing wrong in the actual case against Martin. Whatever happened after that is just collateral damage. He'd be a celebrity either way just because that's how the media works these days. Casey Anthony anyone? I'd expect a few bucks coming my way if i had to defend myself and in turn killed someone, then had my name dragged through the mud. Maybe not that way, but i'd expect something as my life is now complete hell and i can't leave my house without fearing for my life.
