Thumbs down Zimmerman gives shooting account, expresses regret.

Quote:
Zimmerman sat for an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity and expressed his regrets to the parents of Martin, 17.

He said he is neither a racist nor a murderer.

Zimmerman has been charged with second-degree murder for shooting Martin in what he says was self-defense. Martin was unarmed when he was killed in February while walking back to his father's girlfriend's house in a gated residential area of Sanford, Florida.
The watch volunteer said he can't now second-guess what happened.

"I feel it was all God's plan," Zimmerman said Wednesday. OMG, bet Hannity wet his pants on that one
Martin's mother, Sybrina Fulton, angrily disputed the idea.

"I think it's absolutely ridiculous. God did not have a plan for Trayvon to die and for George Zimmerman to shoot Trayvon for no reason," she told CNN's Soledad O'Brien on Thursday.

Where the hell is this guy's lawyer? He gave yet a different account of what happened. This guy is a serial liar. The prosecution will tear him apart over this new story. Why isn't his lawyer protecting his client? (unless Zimmerman has gone off on his own again, as he did with his last lawyers)

Zimmerman's refusing to accept responsibility for killing that teenager is disgusting. He may be found guilty, he may be let off, but that child died due to his finger on the trigger of his gun, and that reason only. For Zimmerman to refuse to accept responsibility and blame it all on "a god" is un-effing-believable.

If you believe in God you get to blame everything on Him. That said, guy will be not guilty. Kid was a thug by all accounts and that will save Zimmerman, who is also a piece of trash.

Turns out Zimmerman had another interview scheduled same day as Hannity with with Barbara Walters. She, producers, cameramen flew down to do it.

Zimmerman walks in (this is after he did Hannity interview), cancels interview unless Walters will pay for it. Walters refuses as she is there representing news organization, they leave.

Turns out Zimmerman was just doing interview (with Hannity and Walters) as he's blowing threw that website donation money, and wants more. He was trying to appeal to his "supporters" to send more donation money.

He didn't get more than another few donations yesterday, though. His "supporters" are leaving him.
