‘KillZimmerman’ Twitter advocates violence against Martin’s killer

On March 24 a “KillZimmerman” Twitter account began publishing calls for violence against George Zimmerman, the self-appointed neighborhood watch captain who shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin on Feb. 26.

Five days later, the account is still on its crusade to avenge Martin.

The sender’s initial tweets made his or her aims clear: “No Justice No Peace!!!!!!!!!! #KILLZIMMERMAN #KILLZIMMERMAN #KILLZIMMERMAN,” they read.

The account’s image is a photo of gun-sight crosshairs superimposed on Zimmerman’s picture.

“This Page Is 4 Da Ppl Who Believe Zimmerman Should Be Shot Dead In The Street,” the Twitter account’s description reads, “The Same Way TRAYVON Was. No Justice No Peace.”

In response to one tweeted complaint on March 24 that the account “is advocating murder,” the account holder replied: “we should just all get up and #killzimmerman ourselves; fuck the system. #AintNoJustice”

“I Think They Should Shoot Zimmerman Dead In His Head Jail Ain’t Enough,” read another message the same day.

“Don’t get me wrong I would be happy if he go to jail,” another tweet read, “but I rather see a bitch shoot him in his fuckin face.”

On March 27, the account tweeted: “Leave All The Violence Shit To Us Coz If They Don’t Put Em In Jail We Gone Get His Ass.”

“We don’t comment on specific users or the status of accounts for privacy reasons,” Twitter spokesperson Rachael Horwitz told The Daily Caller. She did not indicate whether Twitter intends to take action to suspend the account, but provided TheDC with a Web address where users can report “an abusive user.”

It’s clear from the account’s tweets on Wednesday that some Twitter users are taking advantage of that option.

“All these racist motherfuckers tryin to get me deleted like I did something wrong,” one tweet read. “Bitch zimmerman killed #TRAYVON he the one wrong.”

Calls for violence directed at Trayvon Martin’s killer are not restricted to Twitter alone.

The New Black Panther Party has issued a “dead or alive” bounty for Zimmerman’s capture. Its value was originally $10,000. On Wednesday that amount was increased dramatically — to $1 million.

On Facebook, groups named “I want George Zimmerman dead,” “Kill George Zimmerman bitch azz,” “Kill Zimmerman” and “Kill George Zimmerman” have appeared, some with approximately 100 members.

The “Kill Zimmerman” Twitter profile had 162 followers at 1 p.m. EDT Thursday, a number likely to increase because The Drudge Report posted a link to the page.

George Zimmerman remains in hiding from vigilante threats. Absent a fringe element calling for retaliatory violence, the vast majority of Martin’s supporters seek only Zimmerman’s arrest and prosecution

Ok. What i heard today is that the media have created a certain impression by emphasizig Martin as he looked a few years back. I heard the Orlando reporter who interviewed Zimmerman's father today on the radio. One thing she said is that Martin, as he was when the incident occurred, was a football player who was 6'3" and "very big." She said Zimmerman is 5'9" and less than 200 pounds.

Also I saw the video that's being touted as showing Zimmerman wasn't injured. Please. You have got to be kidding me. I cannot believe anyone would seriously suggest that video shows the reports of Zimmerman's injuries to be false.

I am leaning more and more towards believing that this is a case in which...once again...the media created a substantially false impression of what transpired and a bunch of people jumped to conclusions. I don't know if we'll ever know the truth. But if part of the truth is that a 6'3" high school football player sucker punched a 5'9" guy and had him on the ground beating the crap out of him and banging his head on the concrete then this whole thing is way out of kilter.

It also would call the idea that Martin felt threatened into question. One thing that video DID show is that Zimmerman is a little guy. So w'ere supposed to believe a 6'3" high school football player felt threatened by this little hispanic guy following him? Again: Please.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

He's a little guy not long after a after a broken nose, who's head was repeatedly bashed onto the cement, who had a gash on the back of his head.

Oh, and the local prosecutor wanted to charge him but the state said no.

Ok, so MSNBC zoomed in on the back of his head and there is clearly a mark, so disregard the previous post. There's evidence of a scuffle and who knows how it all shook down.

WOW. It took what, 6 pages in a goofy thread for you to figure that out, Columbo?

No wonder there are so many idiots in this country willing to believe what some pothead flunky journalism major who looks good on TV tells them.

Is that accurate? That doesn't make it OK for Zimmerman to shoot Martin, but I can tell you that until now I honestly thought Martin was like 5'10" and skinny and Zimmerman was 6' and over 200.

Martin was listed at 140 and Zimmerman was listed at 250.Reports said that Martin wrestled the gun away from Zimmerman how is that possible for someone who is outweighed by a good 110 pounds to take away a weapon from somebody that enjoys a size advantage.I saw news footage of Zimmerman his father said Martin slammed his head onto the hood of the car and punched him in the face but there were no blood stains on Zimmerman's clothing.Also Zimmerman's father gave a interview on FOX News but the only thing that was showing of him was a silhouette of himself why was that?Maybe this guy is fronting for someone else.

That's because you continue to make it something that it might not be. You, without any evidence, have made Zimmerman, an Hispanic, into a whitish racist who targeted a black man because of his skin color. Congrats. :suspicious:

Hey, there are some parts of Wilmington where it is unsafe for me to go...I've been threatened and called "cracker", "white boy"...all because of my skin. Or course, bias is inherent in all facets of life, right? Are you going to lose any sleep over that or are you just circling the wagons for your own kind?

Trayvon was 6-3 220
Early reports said Zimmerman was 100 to his advantage. I'm guessing that was based on Zimmerman's 6 year old mug shot and Trayvon's 7th grade school picture.

NO ONE should have to be afraid to walk anywhere in this country, this isn't Iraq or Afghanistan, this is America, land of the free and home of the brave, the "melting pot" and all that feel good shit, all types of racism is wrong. I could argue that in this generation, Hispanics are MORE racist towards blacks and vice-versa. In regards to your personal experience in Wilmington, If I knew you on a personal level I would lose sleep over it because I would consider you a friend. Racism is not going to be solved overnight, and I've never ONCE claimed that it was or will be. Its a generational thing where the only thing we can do is teach our children not to judge people simply because of stereotypes, and even that is a stretch.

I'm sure that Zimmerman was only following him because he wanted to give him back his bag of weed and welfare check that fell out of his pocket. :coffee:
