George Zimmerman Arrested--Again

George Zimmerman arrested on domestic violence charge after allegedly pointing a shotgun at his pregnant girlfriend's face. N.b. He is still married to Shellie Zimmerman, although they are estranged. Apprarently, Zimmerman and his girlfriend were breaking up.

The Field Negro's post.

A lot is coming out. Shellie Zimmerman's lawyer was finally able to serve her estranged husband with divorce papers--while he was in jail. And yesterday's Politics Nation with Al Sharpton concluded with Al interviewing a psychologist on Zimmerman's mental state.

George Zimmerman an Incident Waiting to Happen

I have a staunchly rw friend who thinks the Zimmerman verdict was the end of the story. Of course he supported the verdict. But this is not the end of the story. In fact, the story won't end well.

18 September update: Field Negro highlights the medical examiner's allegation that Zimmerman shot Trayvon Martin in the back, which would mean Trayvon wasn't even struggling with him.
