"Sorry for your loss." Fuck YOU. [View all]

I watched the bond trial live, I listened to all of the pundits, and my conclusion is that Zimmerman's "apology" was self-serving, played to the judge and the media. My personal belief is that his incarceration has curtailed his "coon hunting," and he regrets that. Nothing else. Just that.
