Soon the bodyguard will be gone too. They don't have the resources to protect him forever. And the truth is they cannot protect him from public opinion. Those wounds will never heal. We both know he will never walk in public without whispered comments, without being more cowardly than he already has shown himself to be. He will face a public firing squad everytime he peeks out the front door.

The public discussion happening now will be worse for him than jail time. His brother thinks he's been a victim of a virtual lynching by the media, the public, the Martins -- in fact anyone who he can deflect blame on. Not one word from the loud mouthed Zimmerman family expressing any regret whatsoever. The brother in hindsight says Zimmerman would have done nothing different. Sickening.

Can you shoot him and claim he scared you?

If he can claim his life was in danger from an unarmed teenager with a bag of Skittles, then certainly anyone could claim their lives are in danger by being in his vicinity. Zimmerman is too much of a coward to exist in civil society. Mutually Assured Destruction should ensure that he doesn't have a single waking moment without fear for the rest of his life.

Every time I see one of them on that network (before I quickly change channels) they are being gushed over and spoken to in hushed tones so as not to upset them. Gag.
