George Zimmerman runs amok again

Once again, the Most Hated Man in America gets out of his vehicle. From ABC News today:
By MATT GUTMAN (@mattgutmanABC) and ALEXIS SHAW (@ashaw109) 
July 22, 2013 
George Zimmerman, who has been in hiding since he was acquitted of murder in the death of Trayvon Martin, emerged to help rescue a family who was trapped in an overturned vehicle, police said today. 
Zimmerman was one of two men who came to the aid of a family of four -- two parents and two children -- trapped inside a blue Ford Explorer SUV that had rolled over after traveling off the highway in Sanford, Fla. at approximately 5:45 p.m. Thursday, the Seminole County Sheriff's Office said in a statement. 
The crash occurred at the intersection of I-4 and route Route 46, police said. The crash site is less than a mile from where Zimmerman shot Martin. 
By the time police arrived, two people - including Zimmerman - had already helped the family get out of the overturned car, the sheriff's office said. No one was reported to be injured. 
Zimmerman was not a witness to the crash and left after speaking with the deputy, police said. 
It's the first known sighting of Zimmerman since he left the courtroom following his acquittal last week on murder charges for the death of Martin. Zimmerman, 29, shot and killed Martin, 17, in Sanford, Fla., on Feb. 26, 2012. The jury determined that Zimmerman shot Martin in self-defense.

  1. Surprised he didn't shoot them while he had them pinned in the SUV, the way he shot Travon when he was done smashing his head against the pavement and punching him in the face.

  7. Now that Drudge is giving this CNS story some attention:

    http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/huds-new-fair-housing-rule-establishes-diversity-data-every-neighborhood-us

    Maybe it's time for some journalists to probe into why why interracial crime is no longer accounted for in the National Crime Victimization Survey?

    See: Hatefacts go down the memory hole
    http://www.vdare.com/posts/around-the-blogs

    Which will be relevant considering Section 8 increases crime.

    http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2008/07/american-murder-mystery/306872/

    This is anarcho-tyranny... demanding diversity data for "desegregation" but then they get rid of the data on interracial crime.

  8. We wouldn't be seeing a story like this about Trayvon had he been the one to walk away.

    There are few things more unforgivable than being wrong about something important. One of them is being right.

  13. Here's a report of an hilarious comment over at GLPiggy:

    In daytime, he’s just a regular fat mestizo guy. But when the night falls, he becomes Zimmer Man, a white Hispanic superhero, a vigilante who walks the mean streets of small Florida towns, blowing the brains out of black thugs and helping trapped people get out of wrecked cars. He’s a silent guardian, a watchful protector — the White-ish Knight.

  14. Wonder if they'll start describing Zimmerman now as "black Hispanic"--e.g., "Black-Hispanic Man Heroically Saves White Family from Flaming Car Wreck!"

    Or something.

  19. In daytime, he’s just a regular fat mestizo guy.

    Slightly OT, but when I saw how much weight Zimmerman had gained, I wondered if it might be part of a long-term disguise strategy. After weeks of his fat, clean-cut image being imprinted into everyone's memories, he hides for a while, loses all that weight, pumps some iron, grows a beard and long hair and nobody will recognize him.

  20. Hollywood will put out the film version shortly.

    Of course, Zimmerman in the movie will be a black man and his shooting victim an angry white man who comes barreling out of his house and punches him to the ground.

    The selfless heroism of the black hero, rescuing White car crash victims at the end of the movie, despite his horrendous treatment at the hands of the racist media and judicial system, will leave the audience in tears.

  26. So, this time Zimmerman not only got out of his car (which, as we know, is a crime in Florida, or at least should be) but -- get a load of this -- also helped a family get out of theirs. Is there no limit to how evil this guy is? NO_LIMIT_PARDO.

    By the way, there is a typo in the original ABC News Story.

    "The crash occurred at the intersection of I-4 and route Route 46, police said. The crash site is less than a mile from where Zimmerman shot Martin."

    should read

    "The crash occurred at the intersection of I-4 and route Route 46, police said. The crash site is less than a mile from the gated community where Zimmerman shot Martin.

    "George Zimmerman" with "gated community" -- 281,000 hits

    "George Zimmerman" with "condominium complex" or "condo complex" -- 47,000 hits. With "crime-plagued condominium complex" -- 0 hits.

  29. On that note, what's going to happen to this poor guy when he's forced to put another round into some thug who goes after him in revenge for the Martin shooting? If I were him, I'd invest in some kind of lapel camera that can be worn while out and about in public, so I can prove self-defense beyond any doubt when I have to go through round II of this fiasco.

  36. George Zimmerman is basically Batman.

    In any story involving Zimmerman, ask yourself, would society be better served by more George Zimmermans, or by less George Zimmermans?

    The one that we do have has already nearly singlehandedly saved a family of people from a burning vehicle and stared into the face of black criminality at great cost to himself.

    If he runs for President in 2016, I'll renounce my citizenship, go to Mexico and become a citizen and then sneak back across the border so I can vote multiple times for him without being investigated.

  40. "Zimmerman verdict: 86 percent of African Americans disapprove"

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-politics/wp/2013/07/22/zimmerman-verdict-86-percent-of-african-americans-disapprove/

    "African Americans have a mostly shared and sharply negative reaction to the shooting of Trayvon Martin and the not-guilty verdict in the resulting trial, while whites are far more divided, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

    At least eight in 10 African Americans say the shooting of the Florida teenager was unjustified, recoil at the verdict in the trial and want the shooter, George Zimmerman, tried in federal court for violating Martin’s civil rights.

    On the Martin shooting in particular, the racial gaps are extremely wide.

    Among African Americans, 87 percent say the shooting was unjustified; among whites, just 33 percent say so. A slim majority of whites (51 percent) approve of the not-guilty verdict in the Zimmerman trial, while African Americans overwhelmingly and strongly disapprove. Some 86 percent of blacks disagree with the verdict — almost all of them disapproving “strongly.”

    There is also a partisan tinge to the public views. Among whites, 70 percent of Republicans but only 30 percent of Democrats say they approve of the verdict.

    Some of the reaction to the trial — among both blacks and whites — stems from wildly different views of the role of race in the criminal justice system more broadly. Fully 86 percent of African Americans say blacks and other minorities do not get equal treatment under the law; the number of whites saying so is less than half as large, 41 percent. A majority of whites, 54 percent, say there is equal treatment for minority groups.

    About eight in 10 African Americans (81 percent) say the federal government should charge Zimmerman in federal court with civil rights violations. Just 27 percent of whites agree, while 59 percent say the government should not bring such charges."

    The funny thing is Zimmerman isn't even trying to do that but just wants to be a good guy. But inspector clouseau-like, he's messes up the Narrative around him.
    He just jinxes the media. We don't know how it happens, but it just does.

  77. O'Reilly's rant tonight and his discussion with Rove were amazing. O'Reilly took on black out-of-wedlock birth rates hard. Rove took on Obama saying he could have been Trayvon Martin 35 years ago. Rove (paraphrasing): "Oh really, Mr. President? You would have punched a stranger who confronted you, knocked him to the ground and wailed on him?" (Of course, the evidence was clear that Z did not confront Martin. Rather, Martin doubled back to attack Zimmerman. Probably would have taken a cellphone of a comatose Zimmerman and posted it on YouTube, as well as robbing Z.)

    Worth a watch, though. I've never seen anything like it on TV.

  83. Breaking on Drudge:

    Politico reports that the ACLU is walking back its demand that Zimmerman be charged by the fed, citing the org's policy of opposition to double jeopardy:

    "'There should be no exception to double jeopardy principles simply because the same offense may be prosecuted by two different sovereigns,' the policy says.[... Laura Murphy, director of ACLU's DC office, writes to DOJ:] 'The ACLU believes the Double Jeopardy Clause of the Constitution protects someone from being prosecuted in another court for charges arising from the same transaction. A jury found Zimmerman not guilty, and that should be the end of the criminal case.'"

    What Holder will do is anyone's guess, but the story mentions some hints that there's an unlikelihood of further criminal prosecution of Zimmerman.

    The story contains one head-scratcher that is typical of our age. I had to rub my eyes and think twice when I read:

    "The heated debate highlighted one of the ACLU's challenges: It is perhaps the nation's foremost advocate for civil liberties — but it also has a long history advocating for civil rights."

    An open admission by Politico that civil rights are the enemy of civil liberties.

    You're wasting your time responding to "Truth". Like the vast majority of the black community, "Truth" is mainly interested in having as many blacks get away murder as possible - as long as it's of non-blacks. In "Truth"'s worldview, Roderick Scott's is a good shoot because he was black and the dead victim white, and not because the shooting had a self-defense element. The wrinkle here is that the dead victim was shot in the back from 20 feet away. The question is whether he was first shot in the arm as he advanced towards Scott and a second shot was fired as a coup de grace. Here's the relevant passage:

    Court papers revealed the teenager killed in Greece was shot in the back.

    District Attorney Mike Green confirmed that Christopher Cervini, 17, was shot in the back from about 20 feet away on Baneberry Way in Greece on Saturday, April 4.

    Another bullet struck Cervini's hand, went through his chest and out his armpit.

    No shit! This is easily the funniest story/iSteve thread I've ever seen. Troof is strangier than fikshun.

    On that note, what's going to happen to this poor guy when he's forced to put another round into some thug who goes after him in revenge for the Martin shooting? If I were him, I'd invest in some kind of lapel camera that can be worn while out and about in public, so I can prove self-defense beyond any doubt when I have to go through round II of this fiasco.

    Brother, if I were you (or me), I'd invest in same. We're all George Zimmerman now.

    Hubris (MSM) meets Nemesis (George Zimmerman).

    Nemesis wins. As Nemesis always must.

    I mean, what a great dude. He's just made the transition from tragic doofus victim to American folk hero.

    Truth really is stranger than fiction.


    So true. And you beat me to "troof is stranger than fikshun," too.

    If he runs for President in 2016, I'll renounce my citizenship, go to Mexico and become a citizen and then sneak back across the border so I can vote multiple times for him without being investigated.

    Hahahaha! Yeeehaw! Just when I though this thread couldn't get any funnier...

    The funny thing is Zimmerman isn't even trying to do that but just wants to be a good guy. But inspector clouseau-like, he's messes up the Narrative around him.

    Okay, I give up. I'm not gonna say how this thread can't get any funnier anymore. I promise.

    On that day Zimmerman had already passed by 4 overturned, burning cars full of black families.

    See what I mean? Funniest f-ing bit so far. I give up again...

    LOL! This is one of the funniest threads ever.

    Christ baby Jesus yes. This is hands-down the funniest iSteve thread ever, period, no effing contest whatsoever. And the most delicious. I can almost hear Troof's asshole snapping shut.

    So anyone know the identity of the other rescuer? I bet it was either Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson, since they follow GZim around and threaten him.

    Jesus, please stop, guys, please; "onna these days yer gonna die laffin'".

    If the family had an jewelry on, Trayvon Martin would have robbed them at gunpoint.

    Mr. Sailer, why do you allow such biased and hateful statements from your racist readers.

    If 17 year old Trayvon had not had his life tragically interrupted, I have no doubt he would have acted nobly, like 17 year old De'Marquise.

    I posted the following on that thread at 4:14 PM MDT. The moderators struck it within 10 minutes.

    - - - - - - - - - -

    From paying some attention to media reports and the trial, this is my understanding of a key part of the sequence of events:

    1 -- Zimmerman (in his car) had words with Martin (on foot). Martin ran down a footpath, out of Zimmerman's sight. Zimmerman left his car, presumably to look for Martin. Martin then returned, seeking out Zimmerman.

    2 -- Martin found Zimmerman, and they exchanged words. Although there were no witnesses, circumstances suggest that Martin initiated the physical confrontation by punching Zimmerman. Other facts excluded from the trial tend to support this interpretation.

    Is there any strong evidence that points in the other direction -- to Zimmerman as the one who escalated this tragic encounter into violence?

    3 -- Eyewitness accounts seem to establish that the lanky, street-wise Martin was winning the fight. Martin was atop pudgy, unfit Zimmerman, pounding his head into the ground, though Zimmerman's injuries were less severe than his account to police might have suggested. From the bottom, Zimmerman was likely crying, "Help!"

    4 -- At this point, Zimmerman shot Martin, killing him.

    Could knowledgeable commenters correct any misstatements of fact in this outline?

    I bet Grand Dragon Zimmerman tailed them and ran them off the road, Mississippi Burning-style, before shooting them dead and burying the bodies in a remote location.

    I mean, in these days when actual facts mean so little, and lies are ubiquitous, this may as well be the truth, right? Sanity and rationality are nothing but fond memories now.

    Born with a mes-ti-zo sun tan,
    Holstered gun when he walks his beat,
    Cleans up the Skittles at his feet.

    2nd Verse:
    Ole George Zimmer was a fine old Man,
    Rescued kids from a burning van,
    Cops a sittin’ at the doughnut shop,
    Wishin’ this whole damn thing would stop.

    Why is everyone missing the obvious explanation? Zimmerman being an incomprehensibly evil genius took a public relations course at his local community college all as part of his master plan to shoot a young black kid, use his community college coursework to craft a plausible defense, and now he executes the PR part of the plan. Why can't you idiots see how this genius is playing you? Note to self -- bring new development in master scheme to attention of E. Holder.

  114. Bill O'Reilly still got it wrong on the reasons Zimmerman suspected Martin; he says it was because of Martin's CLOTHING, which is bullshit. It was Martin's suspicious BEHAVIOR that drew his attention, and that's what he reported to the police.

    The degree of emotion on this case on the part of people who simply don't know the facts is incredible, and their willingness to toss aside fundamental principles of law and jurisprudence in order to convict Zimmerman and those like him is truly frightening.

    Here's an interesting "quiz" on the Zimmerman/Martin case which provides a lot of information that most people are entirely unaware of; given the degree of coverage this case had, it's also a major indictment of the mainstream media.

    And the fact that so many, especially blacks but also many whites, are convinced Zimmerman was a "racist", is a shocking inversion of the truth.

    I stopped looking into "National Review" after the defenestration of Derbyshire. As a result I learned about the article by Victor Davis Hanson there from the blog-comment by Derbyshire at VDARE,

    http://www.vdare.com/posts/prof-hanson-gives-his-son-the-talk-nonblack-version

    I had to break with my decision not to read National Review, and have read the article.
    Quite bleak article. If he published it in "Slate" or "TNR", I could understand that for tactical reasons he would not be inclined to mention Derbyshire affair.
    But not to mention Derb in NR on this occasion is extreme dirt and low class on the part of VDH.
    Editors cleansed up all _665_ comments (as of 2013/07/23, 5:50 PM Eastern time.) of all mentioning of Derb; I tried to find them via "find" --- nothing.

  122. "I had to break with my decision not to read National Review, and have read the article. Quite bleak article."

    One thing...

    Hanson and many conservatives say it's understandable that whites are nervous around blacks because statistics bear out the higher rates of crime among blacks, but that's rather disingenuous.

    It's not the stats but firsthand experience, word-of-mouth about what happened to friends or family members, images on TV news(despite the efforts to edit the material), and other visceral factors.
    While numbers and stats do bear out the higher rate of black criminality, people are not reacting to dry numbers. If white folks knew about black crime only through numbers, they would care far less.
    Also, there are certain signals you can pick up when around blacks. Some blacks look scary, act scary, and move like they're about to do something bad. If you know urban black reality, you know the signals.

    Also, Obama is being disingenuous when he says all black men are held in suspicion by whites. Again, most people know the reality and can pick up the signals as to which blacks are dangerous and which are not. Even someone such as myself who is no fan of negroes can tell most times which blacks to look out for and which ones not to.
    In a downtown area, NO ONE fears well-dressed or decent-seeming blacks who look like lawyers, accountants, professionals, etc. I mean what white person is gonna flip out over someone like Clarence Page?

    If anything, Obama has been greeted and embraced by privileged whites because he's a nice negro type. Indeed, he's been befriended, patted on the back, trusted, accepted, rewarded, and etc more than white people with similar credentials. He's been treated like royalty for being the dream nice negro that whites like to be around. But he mentions none of that. The ungrateful son of a bitch yammers about how someone locked the car door when he was walking by. But how does he know they were locking the door because of him? People enter cars and lock the doors. They put on seat belts too. Possibly, because the young Obama was a dopehead and maybe looked like a punk, maybe some whites were a bit wary of him, but that woulda been Obama's fault since he was a pothead punk in his youth. It prolly had less to do with his skin color than his demeanor as a punk.

    All this talk about statistics misses the point. If you've seen blacks in subways, buses, and etc, you know there are plenty of nice blacks but there are some that are just scummy. And these scummy ones sear into your head. Even if they don't do anything bad to you, their demeanor is something you can't shake off. Also, local news is filled with stories of blacks who rob, beat, and assault. These stories are visceral; it's not about numbers and stats.
    Also, most people know someone or someone who knows someone who was done in by blacks. I had a friend who went to an elite college in the 1980s and was raped by a black in her car. And I had experiences walking down the street and being pushed and held at gunpoint by such scum. And I've experienced plenty of bad black behavior in schools, malls, buses, and etc.
    I don't feel the way I do because of numbers or stats. All those numbers do is confirm what I know emotionally through experience and observation and hearsay.

    Now that the criminal trial is over, Zimmerman could probably raise a fortune to pay for his legal costs if he faces a civil trial or a Federal civil rights trial. During the criminal phase of this, the judge was able to put the kibosh on his legal fund when she nearly revoked his bail for his not disclosing. that of course, was one of the dirty tricks played on Zimmy. He needed good legal counsel and by interfering on his ability to pay for it nearly cost him his hide. I am willing to bet that there are millions of Americans that would donate anywhere from $1 to $100 if he simply asked his fellow citizens for help. Not only would it put a thumb in the eye of Holder, Obama, and the Martins but it would a nice little version of a conservative protest as well.

    "Greg Gutfeld earlier today had a good term for that sort of talk: "Hatefacts." What you're saying is a fact, but it's a Hate Fact, because the dominant cultural gatekeepers don't want to hear it and will call it "hate" to get you to shut up about your impolitic truth-telling."

    Hanson did delve into the horror of the crimes involved and the reality many Americas have to deal with.
