Ugh. George Zimmerman rears his ugly head today too.

Not commenting on following story because I can't line up the curse words coherently:

George Zimmerman is now a sad ‘homeless’ veteran of the Florida Stand Your Ground war

George Zimmerman, who once shot a young man in Florida just to watch him die, wants you to know that things have not gone so well for him since he got away with stalking and murdering a teenager for being black. He is now homeless and doesn’t sleep well, unlike Trayvon Martin who sleeps the quiet dreamless sleep of the dead.

Shall we feel sad for George? Let me think about that for a minute. No.

George has taken time out from his current career of keeping the police busy ticketing him and showing up to keep him from trying to kill wives and girlfriends to sit down with Univision’s Ilia Calderón, whom he presumably didn’t try to kill afterwards, to tell her that he is homeless and has PTSD. Does he now get the shakes when he sees black people on the street? No, that malady was already part of psychological make-up before he was out hoodie-hunting if his Florida neighborhood. I think he wakes up screaming because he was this close to not killing Trayvon Martin with his first shot and achieving a kill with one shot is a serious point of pride for all aspiring mall cops.....

More if you aren't livid by now and can take it.

New girlfriend's home? Did he move back home with Mummy and Daddy?

There is a lot of leeway with the term homeless. I call BS on Georgie claiming to be down and out.

"can I borrow that pillow"? He has a sense of entitlement that makes me ill.

He doesn't have PTSD he has guilt. Try as he may he can't run away from it.
