@revelette,
Zimmerman did have a gun yesterday, but when the police arrived, he didn't have it on him--it was in his car. The police didn't have a search warrant for the car, so they didn't look in there.
Shellie Zimmerman changed her story and told the police she never saw the gun. That was after she spoke to her lawyer. Had she said she saw George holding, or flashing, his gun, he would have faced 3 years in jail just for doing that.
Shellie does seem genuinely frightened of him, and his potential for violence, and she knows him better than anyone else does.
Both George Zimmerman's lawyer and Shellie Zimmerman's lawyer showed up at the scene yesterday and likely convinced Shellie and her father not to press charges against George, and to try to work out the matter privately. I heard O'Mara say as much on CNN last night. He also tried to downplay what George did as just, "pushing and shoving." I wonder if Zimmerman also pushed and shoved Trayvon Martin too, and that's what provoked a punch in the nose from him. That would explain Martin saying, "get off me," which is the last thing Rachel Jeantel heard him say to Zimmerman.
The police are still going to study surveillance videos from outside the house to see if those indicate any crime by George Zimmerman. According to O'Mara, there was no video of what went on inside the house between George and Shellie's father.
George better find a new place to live. Everyone knows his location now.
I wonder how long it will be before his next run-in with the police.
