In 2013, Zimmerman was acquitted of a second degree murder charge in Florida which further led to disbelief in some sections of the African-American population in the US. That killing involved the death of young Trayvon Martin.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In September 2015, Zimmerman went onto <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3251226/You-disgusting-human-George-Zimmerman-provokes-fury-Twitter-posting-image-Trayvon-Martin-s-lifeless-body.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">retweet a tweet</a></span> showing the lifeless body of Trayvon Martin to his 10,000 Twitter followers at the time, leading to some commenting on his actions via the following statement:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>“You’re a disgusting human being. I know I shouldn’t ever say that, but look at you. All proud for killing a kid.”</em></p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This evening, Zimmerman posted the following tweet – shown below, allegedly about an ex-girlfriend and the tweet included her US contact number. Given the nature of the tweet, we reported it into Twitter and humiliating and debasing an ex-partner in this manner is contemptuous. This is what the bigoted Zimmerman said:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>“This is Heather. She cheated on me with a dirty Muslim…….she will sleep with anyone.”</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">They say that a single tweet does not reflect the inner thoughts of a person. In this case, we beg to differ, given the clarity of the contempt for Muslims and Zimmerman’s support for the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/08/18/george_zimmerman_partners_with_florida_anti_muslim_zone_gun_shop_owner_to_sell_customized_confederate_battle_flag_paintings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Florida ‘anti-Muslim zone’ gun shop owner</a>.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If anything, Zimmerman has shown the world what he really believes in; anti-Muslim rhetoric, humiliating women on-line and showing disrespect for the memory of Trayvon Martin. Ladies and gentlemen, meet the ‘Real George Zimmerman.’</p>
