George Zimmerman has been through a long period of severe traumatic stress. Whether this account is true or not, he has more than enough reason to have a case of PTSD.

Bleach blonde, cleavage, leopard print dress, selfie...yep.

Proof that pictures are indeed worth a thousand words. She's a quick learner. GZ may have a temper and needs counseling after what he's been through but the gals he picks seem to be able to hold their own. No matter what the truth is this time, he's done for. He should have gotten out of Dodge while the getting was good and worry about the divorce and the baby later.

Might have been the only option at the time. Being a woman I hate to admit this but I have seen women act so stupid and combative in a fight with a man that the man had few options other than forcibly remove self or woman from area. I wasn’t there so it could have been just easier at that point to shove her out and block the door than for him to leave.

I will hold him responsible for being so stupid as to get involved with anyone at this point, much less someone that looks so much like trouble. I will hold judgment on what happened until more is known but a poster above may have hit the nail with the possibility that he has PTSD. Killing someone is not something easy to come to terms with no matter the circumstances. In his situation he had no way to make peace within himself while he was hounded like he was. People with PTSD that do not recognize what is going on and don’t get real treatment often end up with a lot of drama in their life, most is self inflicted but is a real part of PTSD.

That is not an answer, nor is it proof.

Is there any evidence that she’s the real perp?

PTSD is leftist hype. (just like ‘homophobia’)

Just as much evidence as there is that anyone else is.

I asked a simple question, you didn’t answer. I won’t bother wasting anymore of time with you.

Right. Yet, in response to my posts (where I am saying no more than that we don’t know what happened yet), you are jumping to the conclusion that he’s innocent and she’s guilty.

No, it is very real. It is overused/over diagnosed just like autism and a few other things but some truly do have it. Most that do have the real PTSD would be the very last to admit it.

Okay then, Doctor. Oh wait, you are an M.D., right?

PTSD is psychologist hype, no respectable professional would use the term.

It was her apartment. I can’t come up with a scenario where he was in the right to barricade himself in her apartment and lock her out. Especially given the fact that he had a gun.

Like I said, I had some sympathy for the guy during his trial, but too many women have called the cops on him to make me believe that he’s the innocent in all these situations.

Old girl friend, ex wife and now the new girlfriend.

Don’t you even find it the TINIEST bit odd that, instead of just leaving, he would barricade himself inside HER house?

Have you examined the barricade?
