Who won the George Zimmerman betting pool?

[Ian David]

How long has it been since his acquittal, and who guessed it?

Shall we start a new pool on how long it takes for him to hang himself in prison?

[gopiscrap]

1. I remember saying 6 weeks

[David Krout]

17. What did you say would happen in 6 weeks?

And did that happen?

[gopiscrap]

19. that he would shoot somebody again

I was wrong....

[JustAnotherGen]

2. There were two people at DU

"Leading" the daily trial discussions - they know who they are.

Come out come out wherever you are . . . Your boy still complete innocent? How about that "d" person. So worried about drones killing people abroad but could give a shit about a 17 year old shot down in cold blood?

Where are all of those Zimmie supporters now?

Come out come out wherever you are - your sweet innocent Bambi-like fair haired boy needs you now.

Because me? I think his STBXW is in danger.

[Ian David]

10. Obviously, Mrs. Zimmerman must have been a wanna-be drug dealer punk hiding in the bushes. n/t

[Nevernose]

11. Give 'em a freebie. Be generous.

Because the odds are that you'll be able to have the same conversation once or twice more in the next 12 months. The guy's a nutbag and most of the world know it.

[Boom Sound 416]

15. I'll start

No one supported Zimmerman. We were just able to separate emotion from law and believe in an equal standard of justice for all people including morons and assholes

[JustAnotherGen]

22. Maybe not you

But they are here. Or maybe they have slithered away back to their NRA Support Groups now that Stand Your Ground has been proven to be a law that will stand - for now.

[enough]

3. Does this count even though there are not going to be any charges? (nt)

[NOLALady]

13. True that.

Initially, there were no charges when Zimmerman killed an unarmed teenager.

[NYC_SKP]

4. Well I know who lost.

Humanity in general.

His wife and her dad more specifically, this week.

Next week, who knows?

[JI7]

5. my problem is that it will end up with another kid dead

but i knew he would get into it. he already had 2 stops for speeding .

but disappointing his wife and her father wont press charges against him.

he can continue to keep the gun and threaten others.

[Ian David]

12. They're not going to press charges? Well, let's see if they're the next people he kills, then. n/t

[Bay Boy]

6. If I was the bookie

I would be suspending any payments for now.

[Snake Plissken]

7. Probably someone working for the NRA

You may read the headline and think George Zimmerman got arrested for a gun related incident, but when a Right Winger reads the same headline, he immediately thinks Obama is taking his guns again and runs out to buy more guns and ammo to add to his personal arsenal, just as happened after his first murder, Sandy Hook, Aurora, Colorado, est.


Mentally unstable gun nuts are good for business, people in the NRA's headquarters are probably high-fiving each other right now.

[TheCowsCameHome]

8. Everyone tied for first place. n/t

[Blue_Tires]

9. The irony of it all is I was once a mainstay in *EVERY* Zimmerman thread from day one

Last edited Mon Sep 9, 2013, 07:48 PM - Edit history (1)

and rightly or wrongly I napalmed a lot of bridges with former DU friends through the countless arguments.

At almost the exact time in my life that I find a small bit of personal closure and acceptance of the verdict and am about to wash my hands of the whole situation, put it behind me and get on with life, Zimmerman has to go out and pull THIS shit?!

Edit -- And in some of the threads today, I see all the usual suspects have magically appeared out of thin air to defend their boy...

[Boom Sound 416]

16. The arguements were always about law

Not whether he was a good guy or not

[JustAnotherGen]

23. No they were not

Perhaps YOUR arguments were - but they were not ALWAYS about the law. There were several people here that were thrilled that Trayvon was dead as a result of this punk's actions. You are one of the "good ones". But you need to separate yourself from the others.

[Paladin]

24. +1. (nt)

[Duckhunter935]

26. can you quote one

I do not remember any

[Jefferson23]

14. I don't know but I will be pleased if he at the very least, loses the right to be armed with a gun.

So far, it looks like his ex-wife is not pressing charges.

[napkinz]

18. He's baaaaaack!

[BainsBane]

20. I don't think he's going to jail

He's been released with no charges filed.

[napkinz]

21. the wink ...
