The fact that if Zim didn't have "gun courage", he never would've escalated the situation...

^^^^^^ THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the telltale trademarks of an IRRESPONSIBLE GUN OWNER

What an excellent way to express the paranoid fear that many (if not most) gun huggers have!

but I have zero sympathy that Zimmerman has to beware - perhaps he will now know what it's like for a black teenager to walk in the "wrong" neighborhood

meaning he's afraid some wannabe hero might do to his brother what his brother did to some guy minding his own business.

"He has always feared for his safety." Yep, even before Trayvon. George is a paranoid little shit weasel.

In multiple interviews on Sunday, Zimmerman also said that George and his family will always feel threatened by certain "groups" who might seek out "vigilante" justice in Martin's name.

"There are factions, there are groups, there are people that would want to take the law into their own hands as they perceive it, or be vigilante's in some sense," he told Morgan.

Now you get to lie down on it, and sleep there every night. Assuming you can.
