Oh! Really! It sounds like a made up story to show that Zimmerman is a great guy. There is no picture of the overturned car or passengers he saved. Maybe a creature like this one below was seen in Florida and Zimmerman adapted it as a pet. Pathetic attempt. Read

The acquittal of George Zimmerman on charges of murdering Trayvon Martin may have met the requirements of law in the eyes of some Americans, but was nonetheless a travesty of justice.

Can you handle the contradictions? I’ve been seen things in twitter for the last few days that puts some grotesque perspective on the American culture. I’m actually quite speechless: Two Florida towns, 125 miles apart. Two people firing weapons at unarmed aggressors, purportedly in self-defense. George Zimmerman, the 29-year-old neighborhood-watch
