Zimmerman won't be charged with threatening girlfriend

Source: USA Today

Florida prosecutors said Wednesday that they would not file domestic violence charges against George Zimmerman after his girlfriend told police he had pointed a shotgun at her three weeks ago.

The move comes two days after Zimmerman submitted an affidavit from Samantha Scheibe stating she did not want "my boyfriend" charged with aggravated assault, battery and criminal mischief. She said investigators had misinterpreted her statements about the Nov. 18 incident at the home in Apopka, Seminole County, that she had been sharing with Zimmerman.

But, I suppose if she were emotionally stable and and was securely self-confident, she wouldn't dream of being in a relationship with someone like George. Can you say, desperate?

I am always amazed at how some women can't stand to not have a man in their life. I've had a number of friends like that. It's as if having a man is what defines them. So sad.

But this will not be the last on the zit. One day, he will corner someone meaner than him...........

What's it going to take? Is he going to have to shoot a little blond girl in the police station to convince people he's a fucking lunatic and should not own guns?
