Wannabet that he has family & friends standing watch quietly & that they are armed to the teeth . All it will take is for somebody to get stupid & before you can say OH SHIT!! You have a major fire fight in the streets in front of his house with dead & dying on both sides.

I’ve been wondering too where people are coming up with the idea that Zimmerman is a Jewish name. A person could be Jewish and have that name, but not all, and probably not many, Zimmermans are Jewish. Hence, to call it a Jewish name makes no sense.

Exactly right. George Zimmerman was a Catholic altar boy back in Virginia. His father was a judge, and his Peruvian mother worked as a courthouse translator and performed civil marriages in Español.

Hispanics with non-Hispanic names have risen to prominence from time to time. In the 1890's, the Spanish general Don Valeriano Weyler y Nicolau gained notoriety when his unsuccessful effort to put down the rebellion in Cuba led to many deaths.

And then there was the krautisch Alfredo Strößner, who ruled Paraguay from 1954 to 1989.

His is one of those memorable names that never seems to fade away, long after far more notorious or capable villains have been long forgotten.

Shouldn’t it be a picture of Obama when he was 12?
