George Zimmerman Compares Himself To Anne Frank, Says Obama Victimized Him

Former neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman said in a video that surfaced on Monday that President Obama should've reminded the American public not to "rush to judgement" in discussing the shooting of Trayvon Martin.

Zimmerman made the comments in an interview with his Tampa, Fla. divorce lawyer that was recorded on March 8, the Orlando Sentinel reported on Monday.

Zimmerman recorded the interview because, he said, he felt he was at liberty to be more open after the Department of Justice announced on Feb. 24 that no charges would be filed against him.

Having been acquitted of murder in the 2013 fatal shooting of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin, Zimmerman said Obama only contributed to his victimization and the persecution of "an innocent American."

Well that is some progress. I still don't know why the media just doesn't tell the truth. A paranoid man, looking for trouble in his neighborhood, stopped and harassed a teenager walking home from the gas station. Though the teenager did nothing wrong nor was he breaking any laws, the paranoid man pulled out his gun and shot him.

So much for telling the truth in media.

the people in this country who think they are victims? I guess he was talking about Zimmerman and others who are obsessed with 'protecting' themselves with guns.

Zimmerman and everything about him was all wrong from the get-go. Why was he on neighborhood watch and carrying a firearm? I have never heard of any neighborhood watch organization that allows its volunteers to be armed. His life is a total wreck, and he's always getting in trouble of some kind, the last person who should be patrolling the streets, whether armed or not. I suppose he blames the federal government and Obama and Holder and everyone else for making his life go off the rails, but that train jumped the tracks long ago. He shot Martin because he (Zimmerman) is a loser harboring Dirty Harry fantasies.

That's the guy he thinks should have urged Americans not to rush to judgement... Hey when George stops kissing up to the people that believe all that about Obama with no proof at all then I'll start to worry about the people that "misjudged" him for killing someone. Number people Anne Frank shot = 0. Zimmerman = 1. Math is not hard.

Don't stalk people, ignore police dispatchers advice, shoot them, kill them, get arrested twice after the trial for violence, and Americans are generally less likely to judge you. Just saying.
