"No, they lied to George Zimmerman. "

And he didn't fall for it because he told the truth.

"Bully for him. He's not a liar, he simply employs liars."

So the police lied on the stand? Did Zimmerman get convicted based on police lies? If he employs liars, then by your statement, they had to have lied on the stand. You can't have it both ways.

"Integrity includes lying to people? "

No, but bluffing is a valid investigative technique. I have used it too.

"Wow, that's a f***** up definition of integrity."

It is your definition it seems. It's not mine.

"Let me guess, you're a cop. Right?"

And you're a cop hater, right? There are a lot of you on Free Republic. (I'm a retired officer.)

Who knows if they did here? They lie on the stand elsewhere enough to know you can't take what they say at face value, any more than anybody else. And it's a fact they can lie to you at any time in an interrogation, but if you so much as shade the truth, it's a crime in and of itself. The officer in this case (Serino?) testified that he lied to Zimmerman. You can call it a bluff if you wish, but most people call it a lie. Told with the best of intentions, but an untruth nonetheless.

“If he employs liars, then by your statement, they had to have lied on the stand. You can’t have it both ways.”

I sure can. Just because they chose not to lie under oath this time doesn’t make them any less of liars. They’re simply selective about whom they lie to and when. That may make them clever liars, but liars still.

“I have used it, too”

It’s not shocking to me that one government paid liar would stand up for other government paid liars. In fact it’s pretty much to be expected. I do not hate cops, but I do despise liars.
