This George Zimmermann Has Been Inundated With Death Threats After the George Zimmerman Verdict
Business Insider ^ | 07/24/2013 | Pamela Engel
A Florida preacher named George Zimmermann has been getting death threats from people who apparently aren't very good at spelling, KPLCTV reports.
The 78-year-old's name closely resembles that of George Zimmerman, who was recently acquitted of second-degree murder for the shooting death of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin.
Zimmermann said the calls started the night the verdict came down.
"[They say] if you go out, you're going to be dead. If you do this, you're going to be dead, if you do that ... and I'm just tired of getting these calls," Zimmermann told Orlando news station WKMG. "I don't know what to do about it."
He said he called 911 and has since changed his phone number.

What does this say about our society when people make death threats to someone who was found not guilty? I don’t recognize America any more.

Welcome to Obama’s post-racial America.
Where we were told that by electing a black president - we would end all racism.
In reality - Obama and AG Eric Holder have openly and brazenly stoked the fires of racial hatred and division to levels not seen since the 1960’s.
FUBO and FUEH.

Got an email stating he had changed his name to Ben Gahzi so the President, DOJ, FBI and liberal media wouldn’t ever mention him again or bother him.

Exactly.
The police can trace every call that came in to him.
These people should be prosecuted.
Try that and listen to the screams of racism.

TIME TO CHANGE YOU FAMILY NAMEHe probably did and added that extra "n" -- but it didn't work.
He needs to cast a different spell.

He should change his name to T. Martin. Hey, he might get some money out of the deal.

Yeah, all these death threats are “understandable” rage at the “unjust” verdict. Move along. Don’t look at the beatings and lootings either.

The cops don’t care. Or rather the corrupt city administrations told the cops to not care because the callers are obviously members of America’s #1 original victim group.

Then, besides the Mr. Zimmerman of the Florida trial, that’s 441 more people getting threatening calls for no good reason.

Just for fun I entered my own name into that website. It appears I’m the only ZirconEncrustedTweezers in the entire US of A (although my first name is fairly common). Guess I’d better keep my contact info private in case I have to defend myself from a hoodie-wearing Skittles eater...
