George Zimmerman Interview w/ Hannity

KZ wrote:Hannity also went into very interesting territory when he asked GZ about him being holed up in a hotel with weapons.....the 2 ton elephant is that Hannity was asking (imo) if GZ had any thoughts of suicide while holed up in the hotel (without using the word suicide.). When he interviewed/ talked to him the first time. SH says he was very worried about him. When was that, exactly? Anyone know?

GZ confirms (aughed) he was also "worried", but does not address the 2 ton elephant question.

"Here George, try this one."

KZ wrote:That "God's Plan" phrase...that was clearly not rehearsed or approved by anyone. Sheesh.

That is gonna anger a whole lot of viewers besides me.

Not, not, not a wise choice of words.

God's Plan?? What kind of a dumbsh__ phrase to come out of his mouth. Really??

I suppose God whispered to GZ and suggested the Keltec 9mm, too, when he was shopping. "Take thee the Keltec, and use it well. For when you honor the Keltec, you honor Me."

And God said to George, "Strap it on, George. Everywhere except work." (And why NOT there?)

God said to George, "Honor My will when thee smites groceries at Target, George. Fear not, for my sword, and my staff, and your Keltec 9, they comfort you."

Oh. My.

"I do wish that there was something, anything I could have done that would have put me in the position that I wouldn't have to take his life,"

Does George carry his gun when he is mentoring the children?

Ummmmm.......I don't know....hmmmm...let's see....

A few suggestions off the top of my not-so-smart head.

I don't know. These are just a few random thoughts. Ideas. Musings. Ponderings. .

I'm uh thinkin this was a messed up plan and
GZ needs to own up to the fact this it was his
plan and stop trying to squirm out of responsibility
for his actions by putting it all on GOD!

--they're pretty much going over how idiotic the "interview" was...

--guests joy and jonathon

--joy: it wasn’t so much an interview as it was a recitation of hannity walking george through omara’s version of events, very strange---hannity would even fill in the rest of the answer if george missed a part..

--joy: "he retells the part “I didn’t know if I had even shot him”---yet we have him telling the 1st witness @ the scene “I just shot him”, then he says he didn’t know he had died until an hour later---yet when hannity asks him if he checked to see if he was ok, george nonchalantly says “no.” strange"

--joy:"in the press release pre interview omara made it clear---it’s to get the fund raising going again"

--jonathon: very inconsistent---I have no regrets/yet I want to apologize….strange

--lawrence O’D: --focusses on one stmt:

HANNITY: Do you feel you wouldn't be here for this interview if you didn't have that gun?

--lawrence O’D: --“meaning, you wouldn’t be in trouble, you wouldn’t be charged w/ this homicide if you didn’t have the gun---and george says “no”.

--“in effect, he says he’d still be here if he didn’t have the gun----no he wouldn’t. if zimmerman did not have that gun---this would not have happened. both of them would be alive today.”

--“and would z have even gone near trayvon in close quarters w/out a gun?? I don’t think so.”

--“and if he did---no one would have died”.

--both joy and jonathon agree.

wonder about GZ's mentality. Has he suddenly become a
man faith? Anyone know about his religious background?
Kind of hard to wrap the head around this "GOD's plan"
thing when we all know the commandments...
I wonder what GZ figures GOD's plan is in this instance?
I would really like to hear his thoughts on that one.
It would seem if he KNOWS this was GOD's plan, surely GOD
would have shared the plan with him. It is starting to look like
he might be able to plea insanity.

Does George carry his gun when he is mentoring the children?

--yep, ( and we did hear earlier on in the case that george&shellie both mentor kids..)

--he did say "we" go shopping----then did say that it was just him headed out on this shopping excursion

--i guess he does take his firearm when mentoring---he says he straps it on always (except when going to work)----which is kinda weird then when we've heard him tell LE in stmts that he "forgot he even had his gun!"-( ummm, george, you weren't off to work...)

We have all accepted his death, know we cannot change that.
I grieved for his parents then, and continue to do so.
I do not understand how GZ can continue to destroy the lives of
Trayvon's parents and other family members by saying the things
he has said.
Why won't this man stop? I cannot imagine myself ever taking a life,
but if I was responsible in any way for the death of another person
I fully believe I would admit to it, accept the punishment and not put
another's family thorough any additional pain and suffering.

I have tried very hard not to pass judgement and said I would wait
for the courts to sort this out. Guess I failed, but GZ seems to want
the public to decide his innocence/guilt before trial. I really believe
GZ has convinced himself he is innocent of any wrong, and that he
will be able to convince the world as well. If that was his intent, he
sure as hell is failing.

I don't think he convinced himself that he is innocent, I think moreso he is trying to convince any potential juror's out there. Zimmerman is seeing more money then he ever saw in his lifetime totaled up. He thinks he is a celebrity and will finally have the things he only dreamt of. So, no he's not sorry that he killed Trayvon, he is sorry that he got arrested and charged. He thinks by the money coming in that he has many supporters out here (and he may have). But like CA, his celebrity status keeps her in hiding as it will do him (if he is found not guilty). Either way he wont be able to enjoy the money and he will always be looking over his shoulder.

Freckles wrote:Gizmo,
IMO, GZ KNEW Trayvon was dead. If Trayvon had been alive, don't you think GZ would have fired again?

He was reported to have been near Trayvon's body and appeared to have a hand on the back, or attempting something. Further, did he not cross Trayvon's arms under Trayvon?

He knew. Anything else is ridiculous.

I had read GZ did not have prior info on the SYG laws.And I had read the opposite: GZ had spent considerable time informing himself of the laws. If he had a permit to carry concealed, he would have been required to read and KNOW the laws. And the first law is the guy with the gun gets to BACK OFF and NOT be the aggressor. IMO, GZ knew he was going to be the aggressor when he disobeyed dispatch and got out of the car.

Power makes right, huh George?
