This money won't come from taxpayers -	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#12
Why does that appeal to me more?	slampoet	Apr 2012	#16
But was he elected the captain by the neighborhood or was	Fawke Em	Apr 2012	#2

Yes he was the official, sanctioned neighborhood watch captain	Catherina	Apr 2012	#79

+1	ellisonz	Apr 2012	#23
Bingo ! n/t	jaysunb	Apr 2012	#25
Yup. I've been a member of the board of my HOA ...	TahitiNut	Apr 2012	#31
Plus, the HOA secretary spoke approvingly of Zimmerman to the press.	yardwork	Apr 2012	#37
oh dear - what a bunch of idiots	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#46
i have a feeling that this kind of thing is going on in gated communities all over the country.	yardwork	Apr 2012	#47
IMO this makes them liable.	jwirr	Apr 2012	#53
Yes, totally. 1000%	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#54
whoa	uponit7771	Apr 2012	#65
But lots of HOAs (and other places) have Watches in place	WinniSkipper	Apr 2012	#78
Three - Zimmerman does not own property in the subdivision	csziggy	Apr 2012	#84
Good! "gated community" assholes.	1620rock	Apr 2012	#3
Martins parents were part of this "gated community", were they not?	geckosfeet	Apr 2012	#30
Nope. The father's "girlfriend" lived there.	TahitiNut	Apr 2012	#32
I just read that	pipi_k	Apr 2012	#81
It's a "shoot first and ask questions later" mentality ... Zimmerman was hell-bent to kill.	TahitiNut	Apr 2012	#82
I googled this community and found photos. It has a big gate and a huge "neighborhood watch" sign.	yardwork	Apr 2012	#40
Yeah. Looks like a bunch of condo's in a gated community alright.	geckosfeet	Apr 2012	#76
Yup, and matters little if he was appointed	nadinbrzezinski	Apr 2012	#4
This puts pressure on witnesses!	Karia	Apr 2012	#5
Yes it does -	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#13
The Board/Association can't get out of this one -	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#7
Very deep....	jaysunb	Apr 2012	#26
Google searches indicate that the community is already in deep financial trouble.	yardwork	Apr 2012	#42
Good point. nt	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#44
And how is that not going to be entered into evidence. Can't hide what's already out there. nt	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#43
That was my point -	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#49
I'm glad you're posting all this. It gives a whole new perspective on HOAs and liability, as well	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#51
This story is a cautionary tale.	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#56
Which is why the story has now changed to "he was on his way to Target"	rainbow4321	Apr 2012	#8
Bingo.	TahitiNut	Apr 2012	#33
Nice. It appears that the # of lies released by those defending Zimmerman keeps growing. nt	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#45
This was emphatically stated by GZ's	EmeraldCityGrl	Apr 2012	#67
If they had vetted him they should have disqualified him from roaming the neighborhood.	freshwest	Apr 2012	#11
That's the key here. If they were aware of this (and how wouldn't they be?), they are responsible	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#41
I'm not a lawyer but this doesn't make sense to me.	drm604	Apr 2012	#14
It seems that they allowed him to call himself that even though it was unofficial.	slampoet	Apr 2012	#17
It just seems unjust to threaten potential witnesses with the possibility of a lawsuit.	drm604	Apr 2012	#19
It does not matter if Zimmerman is convicted on criminal charges -	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#21
It is important to separate "neighborhood watch" chat from the Homeowners Association activities	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#20
So homeowners who are potential witnesses	drm604	Apr 2012	#22
As I mentioned up thread -	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#24
If the landlord's payments go up so will the tenant's.	dkf	Apr 2012	#28
I doesn't matter whether zimmy is convicted because the only thing that will matter in this	Ecumenist	Apr 2012	#29
No. A conviction helps a civil case, but is not necessary.	jeff47	Apr 2012	#68
If they were aware that on their property he was engaging in this type of policing...	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#39
I hope they sue the fuck	gopiscrap	Apr 2012	#18
The caption on that lawsuit should be pretty hefty. nt	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#38
I am not a lawyer ...	Kennah	Apr 2012	#27
I hope you're right and this costs a lot of people $. nt	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#36
Actually, it's worse for the HOA than that. They endorsed Zimmerman	jeff47	Apr 2012	#69
I suspect that means they have NO options besides settlement	Kennah	Apr 2012	#73
The HOA is badly exposed to a civil suit for liability.	bluedigger	Apr 2012	#34
No doubt. Who would want to live in a community that allows nutjobs to patrol the area? nt	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#35
There was also a story that people complained about Zimmerman to the HOA...	joeybee12	Apr 2012	#48
So people who complained to the HOA	JustABozoOnThisBus	Apr 2012	#55
No - the complainers are not more liable for this loss.	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#57
I doubt if the board has excess money	JustABozoOnThisBus	Apr 2012	#70
No, the HOA is because they didn't do anything because of the complaints...nt	joeybee12	Apr 2012	#71
It's too bad they can't sue the NRA. n/t	Ganja Ninja	Apr 2012	#50
I'd be at the front of the line waiting to sue their ass off. nt	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#52
This post was hidden by jury decision.	trollhouse cookies	Apr 2012	#59
Race is not the issue of this thread - HOA responsibility is.	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#61
The discussion here is about the responsibility of the HOA for allowing (and even endorsing) this	Sarah Ibarruri	Apr 2012	#63
Oh oh oh but we don't have all the information yet!!! WAAHHHHH!!!	Taverner	Apr 2012	#62
Our HOA hire an officer to patrol the neighborhood	Catherine Vincent	Apr 2012	#64
I would suggest you find out the details.	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#66
He works for the sheriff's department	Catherine Vincent	Apr 2012	#74
Every single professionally run HOA	quaker bill	Apr 2012	#72
Those policies can be negated, though, if the officers don't use due diligence.	yardwork	Apr 2012	#77
My insurance co. wanted to deny me payment	Kaleva	Apr 2012	#80
True that...	DURHAM D	Apr 2012	#88
Usually that liability policy	HooptieWagon	Apr 2012	#83
