VIDEO: "He considers himself one of Zimmerman's closest friends. He is certain he is not a racist."

[Amerigo Vespucci]

A man who describes himself as one of George Zimmerman's closest friends tells FOX 5 he is not surprised Zimmerman is being charged because of the public pressure.

Anthony Woodson is clear that he is not trying to defend the shooting of Trayvon Martin, but he is certain that Zimmerman is not a racist.

Woodson, who is black, said Zimmerman offered Woodson a place to live in Florida when he fell on hard times and the two have known each other for years.

1. He can't be racist. "Some of his best friends are black"

[wandy]

2. This is one of the reasons I keep asking..........

Who's writing/rewriting this stuff.
So now another 'close' friend, who lives miles and miles away, comes forward and proclames.....
Zimmerman did what he had to do....
The devil made him pack heat.
The devil made him get out of the car when the 911 people told him not to.
The devil caused the police department to totally botch in every way, shape and form this whole thing.
The devil enhanced the video to show, what now, grass stains?
The Devil told Zimmerman not to talk to his lawyers.
The devil told Zimmerman to talk to Fox news.
Yes my friends; Zimmerman did what he had to do....
Who the hell is writing this crap.
And what are they trying to sell us.
Like I've said.....

Dam I just can't wait for the movie!

3. I wonder how

much he's being paid. Maybe team Zimmerman found a site renting out black friends?????

4. I'm sad to say that Mr. Woodson is in denial.

Zimmerman may not be a hard-core bigot but he DOES have issues, I think.

5. LOL. I see Fox is trying

Trying very hard.

Too bad for them, it's completely irrelevant when it comes to a trial.

6. Joe Oliver just wasn't working out.

They'll be smarter with this guy and keep him off of MSNBC.
