Controversy is sure to follow George Zimmerman, even though he has not been convicted of anything and the evidence suggesting he acted in justifiable self-defense in the shooting and killing Trayvon Martin was overwhelming.
He also beat multiple accusations of assault brought by his ex-wife and ex-girlfriend when the evidence did not support the accusations.

News6 Orlando headlines the story as George Zimmerman ‘patrolling’ Central Florida shop after gun theft:Although he’s not a hired security officer, George Zimmerman has been “patrolling” outside a Volusia County gun shop after it was recently robbed, according to the store owner.Pat Johnson told Local 6 that Zimmerman is not an employee of his DeLand store Pompano Pat’s, which sells firearms, ammunition and motorcycles.Johnson said that Zimmerman, on his own accord, has been spotted outside the store since the robbery earlier this month. The thieves stole rifles worth up to $5,000 and two mini-bikes, according to Johnson.Johnson added that although he knows Zimmerman, he has not hired him as a security officer.
