Man who shot at George Zimmerman sentenced to 20 years

The Florida man who fired a gunshot at perpetual menace George Zimmerman was sentenced to 20 years in prison Monday for attempted murder.
Matthew Apperson, 37, had testified that he shot in self-defense during a road rage incident with Zimmerman last year. He said Zimmerman's intimidating reputation — especially for his fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin — made him fear for his life.
But a Seminole County jury convicted Apperson last month of attempted second-degree murder, as well as shooting into an occupied vehicle and aggravated assault. Twenty years is Florida’s mandatory minimum sentence for shooting at another person with a gun.
Speaking to the Daily News, Apperson's wife said Zimmerman got "a hall pass to go out there and continue to be reckless."
"I am disgusted that our justice system has become so unjust," Lisa Apperson said.

Is it wrong to be scared of OJ because he DIDN'T kill two people?

sounds like two useless individuals met up and only one walked away...the world would be a better place if they had both met their maker.

Two main challengers are 0-2, both with pretty spectacular losses.
