Zimmerman's Brother Stirs Uproar With Profane Tweet
Newser ^ | 03/25/2013 | By Neal Colgrass

George Zimmerman's brother reopened old wounds yesterday by comparing Trayvon Martin to the alleged killer of a 13-month-old baby, Huffington Post reports. Robert Zimmerman tweeted photos of De'Marquis Elkins—accused of shooting a baby in its stroller last week—and Martin, each flipping the middle finger. "A picture speaks a thousand words," reads text with the photos. "Any questions?" Robert's brother George is facing murder charges for killing Martin in a murky confrontation that gripped the nation last year.

Robert's tweet aroused a mix of support and antagonism. In one exchange:

Dame J. Diva was less impressed:

Profane? The only thing profane was a posting of the two black thugs shooting the finger.

And Robret Zimmerman was spot on in making the direct connection between the baby killers in Georgia and Trayvon Martin who attempted to kill George Zimmerman.

A feral animal is a feral animal. Rabid ones such as these must put down.

That was not a profane message from George’s brother. Glad to see him sticking up for his brother.

If it were I in George’s place being racially harassed and persecuted for self defense and my brother “tweeted”... Knowing him, he would not be as nice about Saint Skittles and the scheme team as George’s brother.

I realize he wants to support his brother but he was an absolute Fing idiot to do that. My God how ignorant on the eve of his brother’s trial!

Bad word choice. IMO you imply wrongdoing by the poster. Viscous truthing.

I am outraged that Robert Zimmerman is openly supportive of his own brother. How shameless!

If only he could exhibit the same quiet dignity* that the Martin family have shown.

George Zimmerman is innocent until proven guilty..

If there is ONE whit of “media” bias in this trial from ANY F@@@ING SOURCE there is NO TRIAL.

Run Rabbit. RUN.

BE AN AMERICAN. OR STFU.

“Saint Skittles”... like that.

Down here in Florida, I keep hearing black ‘protesters’ claim he was minding his own business and got shot down by George. Either they are willfully ignorant, or just liars.

“Either they are willfully ignorant, or just liars.”

My guess is ‘self-delusional’.

You don’t know what the hell you are talking about and I hope you didn’t call me unAmerican or try to tell me to stfu pal, Zimmerman’s lawyer would like to shoot Z’s brother right now.

Not time to act out if you love your brother who is the one on trial.

LOL!
What difference does it make? /sarcasm//

As if anyone anywhere believes the upcoming government show trial is at all interested in truth and justice.

But you seem to think he (and by extension, everyone else)should just all “hush our mouths” until that particular case is decided?

No fair openly stating opinions and/or the truth!
