It's pretty clear what a narcissistic nut Zimmerman is, so we can't really surprised that he'd want to tour the factory. But I'm actually surprised that the gun company didn't try to avoid being associated with him.

Hopefully Zimmerman will be sued into the poorhouse, and maybe he'll still do time following a federal prosecution, but the Onion has a nice "job interview" with Zimmerman that I find kind of reassuring.

Apparently every former-defendant has the right to litigate for reimbursement when the state fails to prove its case. It doesn't matter how repugnant you think the person is or your reaction to the verdict. That's the way it should be.
However, GZ is indeed NUTS for posing for pics at a gun factory, not to mention how incredibly brazen and insensitive it is. He is likely to be deliberately provocative for an "I'll show you!" stance.
From here on out it's just recycling stomach acid on any story about Mr. Zimmerman.

Glad I didn't go to Dim Sum King yesterday. That woman definitely isn't right in the head. (She slapped a cop, too.)

The US is not running out of money. The US is the wealthiest nation in history, with more than enough money to meet all its needs.

...guess Eagle Mountain didn't have enough faith. Of course, when you're looking pain, sickness and possible death in the face you don't really need to have faith in big J anymore - you need medical science.

...ahem, big Jenny! Who did you think I was talking about? ;)

One way or another, Zimmerman is going to end up in jail. He's just that dumb.

Run out of money...HAHAHAHA...the middle class worldview is so cute.

Government budgets are nothing like an individual's budget. Don't let the similarities in language fool you.

Sweetie, governments don't run out of money; other nations just stop pretending that your paper with pretty drawings on it is worth anything to them.

And, fortunately, that day has not yet arrived for America...emphasis on "yet." Oh, it will someday, but not so long as America has the world's first (or second) largest economy, the largest and most lethal military on the planet and the reserve currency of the world.

Until that day comes, every major government will continue to pretend that our paper with pretty drawings on it is just as valuable as their paper with prettier drawings on it.

The Republicans and some Democrats just know that many Americans don't know the difference, and in their confusion some Americans will agree to anything, including the surrender of even more of their birthright, for the promise of something better, something more secure.

Zimmermann will kill again, sooner or later.

@5,

Big Johnson, right?

Pastafarians marched in Moscow and were arrested for offending religion. I kid you not!

Yeah, a country with its own currency can't run out of money. What is about to happen is that one party, the Republican Party, is threatening yet again to stop repaying creditors with the money we do have. All the spending has legally been approved by Congress and in many cases already spent. The Republicans just don't want to pay creditors, because they can make it seem like the country is running out of money to all the people who don't understand how things work.

Most of our creditors are Americans, by the way. The idea that all our debt is owned by the Chinese or whatever is plain wrong. We are nowhere near default and in fact the deficit is shrinking so fast that it is threatening economic growth. We need to borrow and spend more, not less.

Yes, yes, I meant for that "running out of money" bit to be tongue in cheek. We have loads of money. But some people are all "OH NO, WE NEED MORE MONEY, RAISE THE DEBT CEILING" or whatever. Sorry for not making my sarcasm more obvious.

I can't get that Johnathan Croom kid out of my mind. Smart, sad, obsessed, dropped out of high school at the end of last year, hints of religion, grieving the recent end of a relationship with "somebody."

You know what that sounds like to me. Probably sounds like that to you too.

I want to punch that picture of Zimmerman's face, smug as fuck, at the gun store. I wish this action wouldn't break my computer screen.

Fuck me. Measles?!

Please wait...
