George Zimmerman Arrested After Domestic Dispute With 'Girlfriend'

George Zimmerman was arrested in Seminole County, Fla., at about 1:30 p.m., Monday.

It is unclear what charges Zimmerman is facing, the Orlando Sentinel reports. The arrest occurred shortly after a domestic disturbance dispute involving Zimmerman's "girlfriend," law enforcement officials told WESH 2.

No matter what the rationalization, there's got to be some sense of wondering just who it is they turned loose on society.

If I believed someone to be innocent of a violent act and later they were accused multiple times of committing violent acts, I would have a conversation with my conscience. What we might arrive at together would be seen.

HE'S the victim. I saw on a bat-shit conservative site such musings as "Well, they just won't stop until the poor guy is dead" and other gems, like "Can you blame him for snapping after all the pressure he's been under?"

and one thing I was certainly supporting was FACTS.

As for this arrest. So far it does not prove all that much. Considering that there are not any details.

I think that's worthwhile. I'm not shaming you or anyone. And you're right that you didn't loose him. I could see how you'd read my question that way. Sorry.

continuing to be a psychopathic asshole. I doubt if conscience has anything to do with it.

To say it's karma is to say that Georgie Boy is reaping "rewards" from past behavior. We all know he got away with murder, in the Trayvon Martin case. What he's reaping the reward for right now is current criminal behavior that we all knew he would commit, because he's a violent criminal.
