After openly admitting that he “misled” the court George Zimmerman, the self appointed neighborhood watchman decided he was going to request another bond but this time, he was going to put a few demands in with that request. Really ? I wish we all could dictate or demand of the courts whatever we desired whenever.
Amazing how this person seems to be able to get whatever he demands from the courts, even when he disrespects it by outright lying as he did during his first bond hearing when he informed the courts & the public that he wanted to take the stand to address the court, yet when given the opportunity to, he instead attempted to further manipulate the situation so he had his own way while he subtly disrespected Trayvon Martins’ familys’ wishes. At that time, on that day, they were & most likely still are grieving. He had no respect for that natural process of life we all must experience at one time or another in our lives, no respect for their right to privacy during their grieving process.
This was clear when the family informed his attorney that they did not wish to entertain an apology from Zimmerman at this time.
Yet Zimmerman persistently & selfishly made his way to the stand, & under the guise of “addressing the court” issued a verbal pretense of an apology to the family while simultaneously lying in their face. (But the examinations of his lying in this instance will have to be saved for another day)
Black, Blue, Purple, Green, Yellow, Red, Orange, Pink, Rasberry, Blueberry, Strawberry, it does not matter what our outward appearance looks like. As human beings we all have the same basic needs & desires. Quiet time to grieve is one of them; especially when the grieving process is forced on us by the reckless, disregarding, actions & lack of consideration which seem to rise up from within a person who appears to lack character & integrity, as it appears Zimmerman does.
No compassion could be found to be exuding from Zimmerman that day.
And yet he was given a pass in the form of a very low bond, because the courts believed him to be a man of integrity, and believed that he was telling the truth when he both covertly & overtly allowed his wife to address the court & testify that they had very little money & would have to “scrape up” what they could to make bond, & by doing so indirectly implied they were indigent.
Even more baffling than that though is when Zimmerman requested to be able to leave the state, while on bond, due to “supposed” threats to his person. It is highly unusual for a criminally charged individual to be allowed to leave the state where the crime occurred when they are out on bond.
Yet this request was granted.
Now there he sits, barely in the lock up for two weeks, making more unusual requests.
Quite aware of his fathers judicial position in the state of VA, I wish I could introduce him to my father, just in case anyone gets the wrong impression I am an orphan, and then gets wild ideas that they can seek to lash out at me in anyway for exercising my First Amendment rights.
In the motion, which was filed on Wednesday, it is noted that he desires that he may be able to wear civilian clothes rather than the normal attire most criminally charged citizens of this country have to wear and he also desires that he be free from shackles. Zimmerman’s attorneys asserted that if he were required to wear prisoner attire in front of potential jurors, it may be that anyone who saw a photo of him in restraints would possibly violate his right to a fair trial since they might assume he’s guilty.
Why he would think that jurors are going to make their decisions based solely on photos of him whether shackled or unshackled stirs up the pistons in ones brain & sets them to firing. I just hate it when people make attempts to insult the intelligence of others by various methods for in doing so they insult their own; by not accepting the truth of the matter & that is that while they seek to voice their misguided thoughts – that to them, others are not smart enough to ascertain, they reveal their own lack of intelligence.
The jury for this case has yet to be selected; if indeed the case will follow that path.
Poor Zimmerman maybe he really did get his head bashed in by something or someone. Sounds like it may have knocked some things loose in there if they weren’t loose already. Though it’s doubtful it was Trayvon, since Trayvon was extremely busy screaming for someone to help him so he wouldn’t lose his life.
Mr. Zimmerman seems to want to make it appear to the public that he is the victim in this situation, that his safety is of great concern, because there are people who would seek to do bodily harm to him. But he couldn’t be further from the truth, for the truth of the matter is that most who are following this case have realized and accepted that the backlash that would more than likely come from attempting to do him any kind of harm is so not worth the trouble.
The true victims in this situation are Trayvon, Sybrina, Tracey, & Jahvaris. It is clear & remains that a young man will never ever again on this earth, dance, hug his mom, sing, play games, swim, fish, ride horses, vizualize his family members, vizualize his friends, or sports games on the television, drink a can of iced tea, eat a piece of candy called skittles, kiss his moms cheek, wish his mom happy mothers day, hug his dad, or his brother, grow to marry, go to prom, go to college, date, eventually have children and so many other things. I wish deep emotional healing for all of his family members, and hope that in time they will learn to remember the things that made them smile about Trayon.
Zimmerman didn’t give this young man life, and for sure he had no right to take it away.
