Do you think Zimmerman will be convicted of murder?

That presumes that the people who send money to Zimmerman are just as despicable as you are. I doubt that.

You engage in name-calling because you are too stupid to come up with an intelligent argument.

Nope. I think its because he's made the considered decision that intelligent discussion is a lost cause with you, and since you won't go away engaging in ridicule is at least amusing.

You:
You people are too stupid to argue with me and my superior intellect!

Us:
Hush, crazy!

You:
You compensate for your lack of ability to debate with me by calling me names!

Us:
Nope, you're just nuts!

You: Watch how you talk to your betters!

Us:

Freaks like you have no business polluting an intelligent debate with your silly name-calling.

Hush, cuckoo!

Calling him cuckoo is a public service message.

I know, right? You'd think we get some credit for being civic-minded.

You, of course, never resort to silly name-calling, by referring to people as "freaks".

Where is this allegedly intelligent debate supposedly taking place--inside your head?

Zimmerman's Judge Rejects Motion to Step Down
Andrew Chow, JD at FindLaw.com

George Zimmerman's judge will not step down because the motion seeking to disqualify him is "legally insufficient," the judge wrote in his order.

Judge Kenneth Lester Jr. on Wednesday denied a motion by Zimmerman's defense team that sought to disqualify the judge because of alleged bias, Reuters reports.

The motion accused Judge Lester of making "gratuitous, disparaging remarks," among other alleged misdeeds, when he set Zimmerman's bail at $1 million in July.

So how did the judge reach his ruling?

It may seem a bit strange, but under Florida's Rules of Judicial Administration, the same judge who is accused of bias gets to decide whether he is in fact too biased to preside over the case in front of him.

In the motion asking George Zimmerman's judge to step down, Florida's rules required Judge Lester to "determine only the legal sufficiency of the motion." Zimmerman's motion failed that test, Judge Lester wrote in his ruling.

But the judge did not further explain why he found the motion insufficient. That's likely because Florida's rules explicitly state: "No other reason for denial shall be stated, and an order of denial shall not take issue with the motion."

Zimmerman's motion had accused Judge Lester of making opinionated remarks about evidence and "advocat[ing] for Mr. Zimmerman to be prosecuted for additional crimes" in his July 5 order setting bail.

In that order, Lester found Zimmerman "tried to manipulate the system" in allowing his wife Shellie to misrepresent their finances, according to Reuters. Shellie Zimmerman was arrested for perjury and has pleaded not guilty, according to CNN.

Prosecutors had opposed the motion asking George Zimmerman's judge to step down, Miami's WTVJ reports. Judge Lester's granting bail and other privileges to Zimmerman show the judge was not biased, prosecutors had argued.

Zimmerman, charged with second-degree murder in the shooting of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin, can appeal Judge Lester's ruling, but has not yet decided whether to do so, the Orlando Sentinel reports.

George Zimmerman wants out of Seminole County
Jul 31, 2012

His lawyer, Mark O'Mara, said one main concern is money. He said Seminole County is the most dangerous place for Zimmerman to live, and the cost of round-the-clock security is draining the defense fund.

"We're preparing to file a motion to modify George's bond to allow him to move out of Seminole County," said O'Mara.

If the money continues to go out faster than it comes in, the next step will be to declare him indigent.

"It has around $40,000 to $50,000 in it -- not as much coming in, and it's draining off due to things like providing security," he said.

Zimmerman posted a $1 million bond a little more than three weeks ago.

O'Mara said Zimmerman's much-talked-about interview failed to generate donations.

Criminal defense attorney Richard Hornsby said it's time for Zimmerman to cut costs, and he questions whether all that security is necessary.

"The close security made sense a few weeks ago, but things have died down as of late," he said...

Meanwhile, his wife, Shellie, was formally arraigned Tuesday in a Seminole County courtroom. She already pleaded not guilty and waived her appearance.
