>> i have seen people charged with less conduct than mr. zimmerman is alleged to have done that night at the bar.
>> the incident took place at this college bar where an undercover alcohol control officer was arresting several employees for serving alcohol to minors. they showed their badge and asked zimmerman to leave the area. i don't care who you are, he said. after being asked to leave again, he said, f-you. the felony charges were reduced to a misdemeanor, and the court ordered him into anger management classes.
>> the program recognizes that sometimes people get arrested and they're not bad people , they're people who made a mistake.
