Zimmerman was charged with domestic violence and a restraining order brought against him by an ex girlfriend. He was also charged with resisting officer with violence and battery of law enforcement officer, both which are third-degree felonies. The charge was reduced to resisting officer without violence and then waived when he entered an alcohol education program. He was also required to take anger management classes. All that and he's allowed to carry a pistol and work as a neighborhood watchman? How did he get away with that? It had to be his daddy's doing! Something is very wrong here.
