Thanks for correcting that.

The oddest thing is that I do not watch ABC News. Could there have been two efforts to "enhance" the video? That would be extremely interesting if the results are quite dissimilar.

Well Zimmerman is begging for money. He created a website that did include a picture of the vandalized black cultural center at Ohio State. "Long Live George Zimmerman!" had been scribbled in white on the wall. I think that picture has been pulled. The pages are down.


Zimmerman website makes pleas for defense counsel money donations

You mean the NRA, and other pro-gun organizations, which spent millions getting 'stand your ground' bills passed in about half the states, are not stepping forward to cover Zimmerman's potential legal defense costs?

Shocked, I am. :-({|=

Mebbe he wasn't a dues paying member. The NRA is kinda funny about that sometimes.

I thought the inclusion of the picture of a vandalized black student cultural building on his website reflected his true character.

Quote:
The clear intent of the page is to show appreciation for, at the very least, the sentiment expressed by the vandals. Intentionally or not, though, that Ibsen quote (I guess the couldn’t find one that said “A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as one click on my PayPal link.”) is an encouragement to more “deeds.”

Of the many outrages in the Trayvon Martin story, this one is relatively minor, but it raises some interesting questions. Zimmerman’s supporters insist that this case is not about race, so why were Zimmerman’s supporters moved to vandalize a black cultural center, and why is Zimmerman endorsing this? What other “deeds” are Zimmerman’s supporters encouraged to commit in order to leave a “deep impression?”

Zimmerman's attorneys are withdrawing because they have "lost contact" with George. No contact since Sunday.

"He has not returned phone calls or text messages or e-mails, which has led me to believe that I cannot go forward speaking [on his behalf]," Craig Sonner, one of Zimmerman's former attorneys, said.

Hal Uhrig, Zimmerman's former attorney, said Zimmerman has contacted Fox News' Sean Hannity, as well as prosecutors working on the case.

"We were quite astonished at that," Uhrig said.

The pair helped Zimmerman set up a website to raise funds for his defense with money set to go directly to Zimmerman's father. However, when the attorneys began getting questions from reporters about The Real George Zimmerman website, they realized he had gone off on his own and set up the website himself.

His ex-lawyers claim he is in the United States but not in the State of Florida. Very odd that they felt the need to have a presser to announce this. Also reported is that George called the State's Attorney today by himself to set up a meeting, oh, and that he also spoke with that great legal mind, Sean Hannity. :roll:

They are also blaming Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

It seems like George has 'lost contact' with reality.

Edit: I guess he could live out in the woods stealing from cabins and such. Summer gets really hot there and the winters can be tough on occasion (ex snow in South Texas)

Can his paypal button be frozen so he doesn't run off with hislegal fundstill?
We all know this is going to end very badly even if justice is finally applied. A pity he wasn't man enough to take responsibility for his actions. His mother is from South America. My guess is he'll leave the country and will hide out with the grandparents.

Can't tell if the layers are crazy like a fox, or crazy:


"Both attorneys stressed that they continue to believe Zimmerman acted in self-defense, while Uhrig criticized both the press and Martin himself.

Going after the press directly, Uhrig said, "If you don't believe this has been crouched in racial terms, you're not watching the same media, the same TV, reading the same blogs." In an unfortunate choice of words, Uhrig added, "I'm taking a shot at the press when I say this."

Martin then directed criticism at the now-deceased Martin, alleging that his own actions were to blame for Zimmerman shooting him People are saying, how can you shoot an unarmed man? You know what, an unarmed man can kill you if he keeps doing what he's doing," Uhrig said. "I don't care what one investigator thought. They're often wrong."

Did this get posted yet? (If so, sorry)


EXPERTS: Public Relations Offensive By George Zimmerman’s Lawyers May Violate Legal Ethics Rules

Quote:
The reason that Trayvon Martin is dead is not because he was black or because he wore a hoodie or because he was walking in the rain. It’s because that 6’3″ young man made a terrible decision and a bad judgment, when he decided to smack somebody in the face and break their nose, jump on them and smack their head into the ground. And in doing that, put him in reasonable fear for his safety.

Such statements, which have not been established by medical records or other evidence, may be in conflict with the Florida Rules of Professional Conduct. Rule 4-3.6(a) states:

Prejudicial Extrajudicial Statements Prohibited. A lawyer shall not make an extrajudicial statement that a reasonable person would expect to be disseminated by means of public communication if the lawyer knows or reasonably should know that it will have a substantial likelihood of materially prejudicing an adjudicative proceeding due to its creation of an imminent and substantial detrimental effect on that proceeding.

Did you happen to catch Uhrig's performance as he mocked Representative Wilson? He started out in a heavily-accented falsetto, but soon realized his mistake and toned it down a bit, lowering his voice and losing the accent by the end. I would have loved to have seen the reaction of the media to this tirade, however Sonner's face said it all; he simply wanted to sink into the ground and disappear.

Funny, as they claimed professional ethics as the reason they withdrew as counsel.

There was a live feed during the press conference.

Sonner came across as level-headed and reasonable. Conversely, Uhrig seems to be somewhat of a loose cannon.

And it gets stranger still. The lawyers say they have never even seen Zimmerman in person.

Zimmerman’s lawyers hold a news conference…

http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.c ... hp?ref=fpb

Quote:
Snip

“We learned that he had called Sean Hannity of Fox News directly, and not through us,” Uhrig said. “And we believe — I can’t confirm this — we believe that he spoke directly with Sean, off the record.”
Presumably speaking about Hannity, he added: “He’s not even willing to tell us what our client told him.”

Snip

Uhrig and Sonner also revealed that they never met personally with Zimmerman, instead speaking only through phone calls, text messages, emails and messages passed through friends and family. Uhrig also said he did not believe their former client was still in the state, saying “stop looking in Florida, look much further away.”
