George Zimmerman blames Obama for racial tensions surrounding his trial in shooting death of Trayvon Martin
BY GINGER ADAMS OTIS NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Published: Monday, March 23, 2015
George Zimmerman spoke out for the first time Monday since being cleared of violating Trayvon Martins civil rights and his message was simple: its all Obamas fault.Zimmerman, 31, staring directly at the camera, talked for 13 minutes in a faux interview conducted by his Tampa divorce lawyer, Howard Iken.Asked by Iken who he blamed for inflaming racial tensions around his case, Zimmerman didnt hesitate to name names.By far, the President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, Zimmerman said in the March 8 video.
The Presidents bias was evident during a Rose Garden press conference when he said, If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon, according to Zimmerman.To me that was clearly a dereliction of duty, pitting Americans against each other solely based on race, Zimmerman said.For (Obama) to make incendiary comments as he did and direct the Department of Justice to pursue a baseless prosecution, he by far overstretched, overreached, even broke the law in certain aspects, the vigilante argued.
* what a fuck-up he is*

(30,058 posts)George probably had hate feeling before 2008 so he can't blame Obama for his hate.

(4,531 posts)is not the one who got out of his car to stalk a child based on his race. Has Obama also been responsible of the last 5 times he was arrested? How about all the other times he was only questioned and released?
