The State of Florida vs George Zimmerman: The Trial

Quote:

You and your family are perfect...but many, many gun owners end up shooting themselves and their family members.

Very very very few out of over a 100 millions or so gun owners in the US!!!!!!!

A gun owner risk of that happening is about the same as the odds of wining a state lottery top price.

In fact, it is even must smaller odds for those who had been raised around and train on the proper handling of firearms.

It is hoodlums like Trayvon without the proper training that are at the highest risk in handling guns.

I dont hate Shelly. I dont even hate George the child killer. . . .

A lot more citizens have fallen victim to cars
than to civilian guns.

Cars had results in thousands of times more deaths by accidents then firearms in the US.

There are about 600 accidental deaths by guns in the US each year.

George Zimmerman's Wife Says He Is 'Selfish,' Feels 'Invincible'
Sept. 6, 2013

By SENI TIENABESO
George Zimmerman's wife says she doesn't know the man she's been married to for almost seven years and doesn't think she "ever really knew him at all."

In an exclusive interview with ABC News shortly after her attorney filed for divorce from the Florida man acquitted in the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, Shellie Zimmerman said she is left with a shattered life.

"I stood by my husband through everything and I kind of feel like he left me with a bunch of broken glass that I'm supposed to now assemble and make a life…It's just heartbreaking," she said.

Shellie Zimmerman, 26, stood by her husband throughout the ordeal that began on Feb. 26, 2012 when her husband shot and killed the unarmed teenager and came to an end when a Florida jury acquitted him of murder in July.

But less than two months later, she filed for divorce.

"I have a selfish husband. And I think George is all about George," she said.

She claims that at times he was verbally abusive and hurt her "emotionally, but never physical."

"I think I'm realizing that I have been married to a person for almost seven years, and I don't think that I ever really knew him at all," Shellie Zimmerman said.

Shellie Zimmerman said her husband is not only driving too fast, referencing the two incidents in which her husband has been pulled over for speeding recently, but also living too fast since his acquittal.

She says he spent maybe three or four nights at their home with her before she moved out in mid-August. She says she believes the not guilty verdict has left her husband feeling "invincible" and since then has been "making some reckless decisions."

She is asking for "equitable distribution" of their assets including anything her husband might gain from a defamation suit he has filed against NBC as well as equal share of their debts. She is also seeking sole custody of their two dogs. According to the financial disclosure form, she said she is unemployed and listed her monthly expenses as $755. Since they separated George Zimmerman has given her $4,300 for living expenses and the source of funds appears to be his legal defense fund.

George Zimmerman's legal team told ABC News there would be no comment on the divorce filing. George Zimmerman's brother Robert tweeted "Pray for them."

Last week Shellie Zimmerman pled guilty to perjury for lying about the couples' finances when the judge was initially setting bail for her husband. After a judge handed her 100 hours of community service and a year's probation, Zimmerman told ABC News last week that she did not know if she would stay married.

Now, she says she is making the decision to cut ties in an effort to leave the drama that has taken over her life since that fateful night in February 2012 behind.

Keep dreaming, Bill. Wink

Keep dreaming about what as facts are facts and guns are not either evil or dangerous of and by themselves.

Off hand I can think of any number of objects that are far more dangerous to be around then firearms in the hands of properly train people.

In the decade 1990 – 2000, unintentional deaths from firearms declined by 45%.

Firearms are involved in less than 1% of all accidental deaths in the United States.

Unintentional deaths from firearms accounted for only 3% of all firearm-related deaths.

Since 1975, the annual number of firearm accident deaths among children has decreased by
84%.

In 2000, there was a total of 98,000 unintentional accidental deaths in the United States -
42,900 deaths were caused by motor-vehicle accidents, 14,500 deaths were caused by
poisoning, 14,200 deaths were caused by falls, 3,900 deaths were caused by fires, 3,300
deaths were caused by drowning, and 776 deaths were caused by the accidental discharge of
a firearm.
Number of Unintentional Deaths From Firearms 1951-20001

True that is not a thousand time more but just repeat just 19 times.

Shame on me for over stating that the death rate is tiny compare to others causes of death and home fires deaths are for example are over four times more common then firearms deaths.

An that is not even considering that it is hardly likely that many of those 600 deaths are from the group of firearm owners who have long history with firearms. Those deaths are far more likely to had occur among the Trayvon type of person then the Zimmerman type.

Now in the year 2010 the lowest year to that date for car deaths for the last 60 plus years the number is 32,336.
