George Zimmerman has listed the gun with which he killed Trayvon Martin in 2012 for auction, touting it as “your opportunity to own a piece of American history”. The former neighbourhood watch volunteer was acquitted two years ago in the death of the young unarmed African American, but the case sparked protests and a national debate about race relations. Zimmerman listed “the firearm that was used to defend my life and end the brutal attack from Trayvon Martin” on GunBroker.com on Thursday, with bidding scheduled to begin at 11am EDT on Thursday. He wrote in the item description that it had recently been returned to him by the Department of Justice and was fully functional. “Many have expressed interest in owning and displaying the firearm including the Smithsonian museum in Washington D.C. This is a piece of American history. It has been featured in several publications and in current university text books. Offers to purchase the firearm have been received; however, the offers were to use the gun in a fashion I did not feel comfortable with.” |

George Zimmerman is a gigantic a-hole of the first order. I like to not wish people would die in pain and agony, but George makes it very hard. |

No they won't. Why would you say something so blatantly untrue and just mean spirited? |

That gun was used to save his life. "defend my life and end the brutal attack" Self defense is a human right. Edited by Robertr2000, May 12 2016, 11:06 AM.

Zimmerman and Martin Schkeli are the most the most successful trolls of the left I have ever seen.
