Ed, Ed, Ed; that's just special, ed.

First, you:

quote:

I must have missed the part where George's history of outre' behavior was preceded by a period of trauma... when did that happen?

Then, me:

quote:

You missed the part where he was assaulted, forced to kill a man, spent months in jail, was the target of "wanted dead or alive" posters, stood trial for murder, and was deserted by his wife?

You, again, sadly:

quote:

I asked at what point in Zimmerman's long history of very similar outbursts, did he meet the pre-conditions for PTSD... I never said there weren't any.

Technically, I suppose you never did say there weren't any, only that you had missed them.
For those that understand sarcasm however (such as, oh I don't know: me, you clearly denied their existence.

BTW PTSD has well known and well understood symptoms and his behavior is not PTSD.

You mean like:

"excessive emotions; problems relating to others, including feeling or showing affection; difficulty falling or staying asleep; irritability; outbursts of anger; difficulty concentrating; and being "jumpy" or easily startled. "

Yeah, it doesn't sound like any of that could apply to him.

Want to discuss the behavior of people receiving credible death threats????

July 2005, Zimmerman was arrested and accused of resisting an officer with violence near the University of Central Florida campus after a scuffle with police. The charges were eventually dropped after Zimmerman entered an alcohol education program.

So apparently GZ suffers an entirely different form of PTSD: Pre-Traumatic Stress Disorder?
That explains an awful lot.


3 domestic partners have now accused him of being violent with them.
I realise that all 3 could be fabrications.
However: the quack, quack, waddle, waddle rule probably applies here.
But as long as he is only violent because he is stressed out, it should be okay.
After all, his being a victim of stress should excuse any and all bad behaviors.

So apparently he got drunk.

I only remember two incidents... one where his (ex) wife accused him of, among other things, hitting her father in the face( strange how it left no marks. Strange how the complaint was dropped). and this one ( strange that Samantha and her mother were shopping for a paid national tv interview three weeks earlier. Strange that they just could not drum up enough interest to cash in).

Well, yes; at first glance there is a lot there.

But there's also a lot on the other side.
1. He had some relationship problems 7 years before the altercation with TM. Bottom line: no charges were filed.
2. He was accused 7 years later of assault in a divorce situation. Note the hiatus. Bottom line: no charges were filed.
3. Now he is accused of assault, again, by a woman shopping for a paid national TV interview. There is no evidence of the assault.

I think the presumption of innocence applies.

FFS, you should know that the police and prosecutors dont press cases without some kind of evidence. Its a bit fucking stupid to suggest otherwise, even for you.

That's amazingly ignorant, even for you.
Ever heard of Mike Nifong? He was disbarred, you know.
How about Angela Corey?
Famed liberal Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz thinks she should be disbarred.

And that's just high-profile prosecutors, not just every dumbshit redneck cop that, in the words of He Who You Admire The Most "acted stupidly". Hate to break it to you, but cops actually are in some circumstances required to make arrests without evidence.
Prosecution should be a different matter, but is sometimes not (see above); and in any case you're changing the subject and jumping the gun.
Zimmerman has not been prosecuted.

quote:

Actually there is a police photo of showing the a small bruise on the father nose. Also a video of Zimmerman breaking the computer.

quote:

Oh Zimmerman also went shopping for TV interviews

quote:

The assault on the law enforcement Officer happened 5 years before.

quote:

First, personal integrity has nothing to do with an assault charge

quote:

Second, anyone can get in a fight, including with a cop.
