Former co-worker: Zimmerman lost security guard job after he snapped

The neighborhood watchman who in February shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was once fired from his job as a security guard for being too aggressive, according to a new report.
An unnamed former co-worker told the New York Daily News that George Zimmerman was paid under-the-table for providing security for illegal house parties between 2001 and 2005, but was let go because his anger issues became a liability.
Usually he was just a cool guy, the former co-worker explained. He liked to drink and hang with the women like the rest of us.
But it was like Jekyll and Hyde. When the dude snapped, he snapped.
He had a temper and he became a liability, he recalled. One time this woman was acting a little out of control. She was drunk. George lost his cool and totally overreacted.
It was weird, because he was such a cool guy, but he got all nuts. He picked her up and threw her. It was pure rage. She twisted her ankle. Everyone was flipping out.

(2,286 posts)it sure seems George is the only on with a violent, criminal past.
Paid under the table for four years? I'm sure he paid taxes on those earnings. Right? Let's go for tax evasion as well.

(3,576 posts)In his own mind he was a neighborhood watch captain, in reality he was a self deluded wannabe, with a concealed weapon.

(10,622 posts)It was established as bullshit early on, watch groups have spoken up explaining he is not one of theirs.
But they keep just casually describing him that way.
