George Zimmerman Sues Two Top Tier Democratic Candidates for Defamation!

George Zimmerman is suing top-tier democratic candidates Elizabeth Warren and Mayor Pete Buttigieg for defamation.

Zimmerman is the former Floridian neighborhood watch volunteer who was acquitted of murder in the 2012 fatal shooting of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman has remained a controversial figure and a bit of lightning rod since his acquittal, with those who support him, and those who abhor him, pretty much split along left-right political lines.

According to Fox News, he is seeking $265 million in damages from the democratic candidates. This all stems from tweets each of the presidential candidates sent on Feb. 5, the day Martin would have turned 25 years old. The lawsuit was filed in Polk County, Florida, and it claims that Warren and Buttigieg tried using the killing “as a pretext to demagogue and falsely brand Zimmerman as a white supremacist and racist to their millions of Twitter followers.”

In one of the tweets on which the lawsuit is focused, Buttigieg said, “Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today. How many 25th birthdays have been stolen from us by white supremacy, gun violence, prejudice, and fear? #BlackLivesMatter.”

Warren said in her tweet, “My heart goes out to @SybrinaFulton and Trayvon’s family and friends. He should still be with us today. We need to end gun violence and racism. And we need to build a world where all of our children—especially young Black boys—can grow up safe and free.”

Zimmerman’s lawsuit claims the presidential candidates defamed him by implying that he had racist or white supremacist motivations or ideologies behind the killing.

“It is high time that the cheap and harmful use of the race card by politicians of all stripes be made to cease and desist,” Larry Klayman, Zimmerman’s attorney and founder of Judicial Watch, said in a statement. “Their despicable ‘race tactics’ are not only causing great harm to persons such as my client George Zimmerman, but also are damaging relations between black and white Americans who are all brothers.”

Zimmerman said that he acted in self-defense after Martin attacked him, and a jury found him not guilty of second-degree murder and manslaughter in 2013. In December, Zimmerman sued Martin’s family and others involved in the case, seeking $100 million in civil damages.

  1. Hopefully, Zimmerman will win. We believed he was innocent from the beginning and was only doing his duty when he was attacked by Martin. He was licensed to patrol the neighborhood, not on a racist effort to kill anyone. The true thugs in the story were Warren and Buttigieg, who took up the worn out charge and the “Black Lives Matter” mantra. It’s hard to discharge lies and worn out slogans.

  2. So glad you are going after these idiotic Democrats. Many idolize Martin when he was trespassing and was planning possible nefarious things. I will take a quote about terrorist—‘ not all Muslims are terrorists but all terrorists seem to be Muslims’. And I will say —not all young black men do criminal activities but a great percentage of the criminals are, in fact, black. Also, I detest ‘black lives matter’ because it was the start of blue lives don’t matter and the attack against police and all in authority.

  3. Good for Zimmerman. How dare these two miscreants demean , demoralize George. They need to held ACCOUNTABLE for their Slander ….Period They are RACE BAITING ..No different then that POS SO-CALLED REV.

  4. Good for you you have to protect yourself because no one else will.. these Democrats are liar’s and just outrageous with their ways they are so hateful as polosi denies but she is clearly acting like Satan..and all her demions good luck

  5. Zimmerman appears to be at least part Hispanic. Democraps lie about everything since most of their supporters are brain dead nazi-communists & vote democrat regardless.

  6. I think that all the families have suffered enough, although the Democrats can’t leave well enough alone, so if Zimmerman is trying to get $ from them defaming him, best of luck.

  7. According to these politicians “all whites are racist and white supremacist.” Where do we get such dumb a*s leaders????

  8. What is wrong with you people!!!
    All lives matter!!! Why is everything based
    On politics and so much hate today!!
    Why is there so much bitterness in this so called
    Free America in which we all live?? Please tell me
    When it’s our turn to see the Lord, how will he judge us and what will he think?? Do we all even care about how we are damaging our country and how we leave it behind to our children??
    Wake up people!! There is judgement day coming for us ALL!!!!

  9. On that day Travon was expelled from school because he had marijuana on his person according to the media! Zimmerman was defending himself, photos provided by Media showed the damage Travon had caused by bashing Zimmermans head onto the parking lot! And Mr. Zimmerman is Hispanic how is that white supremacy? Elizabeth Warren and Mayor Pete need to pay!

  10. HOPE THIS MAN GETS EVERY CENT HE IS SUING FOR, MAYBE MORE! THE LEFT NEEDS TO SHUT UP AND DO THEIR JOBS. THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO WORK AS NONE HAVE….THEY HAVE MADE THEIR MONEY OFF OF US. THEY WILL FACE THEIR THIRD LOSS SOON. THEY LOST IN 2016 (THANK GOD), THEY LOST THE CRAZY IMPEACHMENT WHEN THERE WAS NO REASON AT ALL FOR AN IMPEACHMENT. NOVEMBER THEY WILL SEE THEIR FIRST AND WORST BIG LOSS BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO BAD PEOPLE PERIOD!

  11. Black Lives Matter is a front for the Democratic Party thru ActBlue, which funnels the money to the Democratic candidates. If you donate to BLM it goes to Sanders, Biden, Warren, Pete B and more democrat’s.

  12. I am so disapointed and disgusted with what is happening in America. My Country is not perfect and yes, some things need to change, but there needs to be change on both sides of the isle.. President Trump is not perfect, but he is a good Pres. He loves America and his fellow man. He has been totally mistreated even before he became Pres. b/c the Deep State does not want him to ruin their plans to destroy and rebuild America in their notion of a world Global Socialist controled exsistence in which the Billionaires have the power and the citizenireys become the slaves. I Say to All of the Pepole in America, “Be Very Careful What You Wish For b/c wolves do come in Sheeps clothing. You are being fooled by the Democrats who are doing the Bidding for Soros,Gates Buffet and other Left wing Radicals…
