George Zimmerman reports being punched after talking about Trayvon Martin case at restaurant

/snip

Several witnesses told deputies a slightly different version of events.

Whitmer's wife said Zimmerman approached them while they were eating and said, "Hey, I like your racist tattoos," records show. He then told them about killing Martin "to brag," a report states.

Another witness who was at Whitmer's table said he also asked Zimmerman to leave their table. He said he took issue after "Zimmerman came to his table and proceeded to brag about how he was the one who killed Trayvon Martin," an incident report states.

Zimmerman told the Sentinel he thinks the incident was a miscommunication. He said the man was apparently intoxicated.

Read the whole thing. When Zim's accounts are added it gets bizarre.

That being drunk makes you honest to a fault. So this guy's point would be that even the inebriated think he's a murdering asshole?
