George Zimmerman on Trayvon Shooting: “I Feel It Was All God’s Plan” (Video)

Neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman told Sean Hannity tonight that he did not regret carrying a gun or getting out of the car the night he shot Trayvon Martin,
“I feel it was all God’s plan.”

Later in the interview Zimmerman told the Martin family and America that he was sorry and he was sorry his actions divided the nation. Zimmerman says he prays daily for the parents of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

In this Godless, God-hating, anyone-who-alludes-to-an-existing-God-or-His-Plan-is-a-racist-white-zealout nation — that ain’t gonna help his case in the court of public opinion.

Tomorrow the entire Left will be saying “ZIMMERMAN SAYS GOD MADE ME DO IT!!!”

Sad, but true.

Race relations in this country have gone into the toilet under Obama.

This attempted lynching is only one example of it.

If Trayvon were white and Zimmerman a black man screaming ‘die whitey!’ as he fired his gun, nobody would have the least interest in this case…least of all our racist president.

I’m sorry he and his attorney thought this interview was a good idea. I am also sorry Hannity had any part in it.

Mr. Zimmerman. You are not responsible for dividing our country. That started when Bammy won the presidential election, aided and abetted by the antics of the press, faux reverends, Al-Not-So-Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the Black Panthers. It was cemented when Bammy declared that if he had a son he would look like that punk you killed.

Is this sweeps week? Mark Levin’s show is a delayed broadcast here and who should phone in but Hannity, discussing his interview with Mr. Zimmerman this morning. Why am I bothered by this? I hope it is nothing more than seeing a non-existent ogre in my closet.

This one sentence will be the only thing that they take and use it that he murdered him to fulfill god’s plan thus, all god fearing Christians are murders that just have not done it yet to complete god’s plan.

Indeed. This was the bombshell they’ve been waiting for.

And the mask is about to come off the Entire Left.

It’s hard to feel sorry for this idiot. He’s in a lot of trouble, but he just can’t keep his mouth shut.

“God is in control.” Sybrina Fulton

“At the beginning, Pastor Bryant was there to help support this family … telling them that God [doesn't] make mistakes and there will be justice,” Crump said.

“It’s so easy for me to cry right now, but I can’t because I have work to do,” she told the congregation. “I was forced into this position, but I believe God is using me.”

Remember, using the “G” word is cool if you’re a Progressive trying to deceive the Godbag Conservatives.

But still — this will be the Meme tomorrow on all the prog channels.

i don’t know if george zimmerman murdered trayvon martin in cold blood or if he killed him in self defense. i think george zimmerman is the only one that knows that. however i do know that george zimmerman is the victim of a lynching by the democratic party media complex.

Sean should have edited out that clip about God. Sometimes I think he doesn’t have much sense.

Sasja commented:

I cannot speak for God, obviously, but I have a feeling He did not call Trayvon home that night. But if it makes his momma feel better. So be it. Although, we must keep in mind that she was making the rounds (even going across the pond) for donations from black church members.

Only libs are allowed to talk about what they think God’s plan is.

Because they’re only talking, and everyone knows it.

Maybe God’s plan really was for Martin to assault a man (illegal) who was merely watching him (fully legal) and talking on a phone (fully legal).

If so, then God says: I WANT BLACK PEOPLE TO ASSAULT ANYONE WATCHING THEM, AND ATTEMPT TO BEAT THEM TO DEATH.

Taqiyyotomist commented:

And maybe Zimmerman actually DEFIED and THWARTED God’s plan by not allowing Martin to beat him, take his weapon, and kill him with it. For having the uppityness to WATCH SOMEONE. IN PUBLIC.

Black man beats you, you have to let him. It’s God’s plan. You should have never been watching someone who is black. You are racist for that, and the person you were watching while talking on a phone has the right to beat you until you are dead.

DO I HAVE IT NOW? DOES THAT ABOUT SUM IT UP?

jeeze louise…what the heck kind of lawyer lets his client give an interview period much less let him say something like “it was god’s plan” ?!? it doesn’t matter if you are a believer or, as commenter ‘taqi’ would have it, a wild-eyed-lefty-god-hater, that was just a really, really dumb thing to say. i assume it was intended to paint him as a a humble, god-fearin’ man but, instead, it makes him sound like a nut. whatever happened to advising your client to keep his mouth shut before trial ?!
