Rock star, gun rights activist, and man voted sexiest person alive only by himself - Ted Nugent - wrote an op-ed on Sunday regarding the George Zimmerman verdict, where he stated the following:
"Trayvon Martin's vicious attack on George Zimmerman and Martin's tragic death have no doubt surely dragged Mr. Zimmerman through 18 months of untold emotional hell, pain, distress, anguish, fatigue, nightmares and financial ruin. Again, following the narrative of the pro-Trayvon media types and other race-baiters, if Trayvon Martin was a minor, then Trayvon Martin's parents may be held liable for the emotional pain and suffering Mr. Zimmerman has been put through for the past 18 months, and surely for the rest of his life."
Just when I thought the man couldn't get any stupider, he goes and says this. Yes, Mr. Zimmerman has endured quite the emotional rollercoaster over the past 18 months, Mr. Nugent. However, let's get one thing straight here - the defendant in this case has the ability to feel such things, whereas Trayvon Martin - the person Zimmerman killed - will never be able to feel such things again. Mr. Zimmerman may very well be an emotional mess for the rest of his life. Then again, he at least has the ability to live life and feel such emotions. The person he killed does not have that capability.
Nugent then decides to one-up himself on Morontron2000 by saying that if Trayvon Martin had been a minor, his parents could be held liable for the emotional pain and suffering of the man who killed their son.
Let's break down Nuggethead's train of thought here:
1) George Zimmerman kills Trayvon Martin
2) George Zimmerman is found not guilty (of a crime, but it's a fact that he killed Mr. Martin)
3) Zimmerman's family will get to experience life with him for days, weeks, months, and years to come
4) Martin's family will never get to spend a second more of life with him
5) If Martin had been a bit younger, his parents should have been held liable for the pain and suffering of George Zimmerman, while their son lays in a graveyard
6) Zimmerman and his family should not at all be liable for the pain and suffering of Martin's family - the family who's one member short of where they were not too terribly long ago because George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin.
That makes a lot of sense. With that kind of logic, perhaps abused altar boys should be held liable for the pain and suffering the Catholic Church has gone through in recent years...
