Have you heard about the George Zimmerman domestic violence allegations? What about the claims that he once attacked a cop?

They both appear to be true. Media has unearthed Zimmerman's criminal record, finding evidence that, in 2005, he was charged with resisting arrest with violence and battery of a law enforcement officer. That same year, his ex-fiance filed for a domestic violence restraining order, which was granted.

So a history of violence for the guy who shot the kid.


No new information.

Apparently you didn't notice when I detailed that with this profile of Zimmerman in one of my first few posts to page 1 of this topic:

The circumstances of each was clear. What you portray as a "violent assault" on a police officer, the article (L.A. Times) describes as a booking of non-violently resisting arrest.

Zimmerman also filed a restraining order against his wife, when she filed one on him.
But those incidents are more than 6 years in the past, and he was at the time of the shooting back in scool to become a police officer.



And against Pro's slanders, Zimmerman is clearly half white/half hispanic, and a fluent spanish speaker.
So my defense of Zimmerman is not a case of white=good, minority=bad.

In my initial posts, I clearly leaned toward Zimmerman being the one at fault. Further evidence and witnesses, and Martin's own media-supressed criminal thug tendencies, have made me lean more toward Zimmerman's account.
But clearly, neither of these guys has a perfect record, and plenty more can still be revealed later.
