quote:

George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch captain acquitted of murder charges in the 2012 shooting death of teenager Trayvon Martin, said Wednesday he is auctioning off the gun used in the shooting.

“I recently received it back from the Department of Justice. They took it after my trial, after I was exonerated,” Zimmerman told Fox 35 Orlando.

Zimmerman told the station the he’s received numerous death threats while in hiding and has received much more after putting the 9mm pistol that was used to kill Marin on Feb. 26, 2012 up for auction.

While Zimmerman is a complete POS, not even close. Terrible comparison.

I'm not trying to say that Zimmerman should have been guilty as far as the trial went, but everything I've seen about the guy since then makes me realize he's a giant piece of shite. That's my point I guess. Very similar to OJ

Not really. He provoked some kid in one way or another, started getting his arse beat and shot him. Not only is he a piece of shite, he's a bitch to boot.

One can imagine what these offers were...

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,” he wrote. 


If true, this is a bullshite move by the DoJ

quote:

the Department of Justice tried to make the gun inoperable, 


It's also sad if the DoJ actually tried to do this and failed.

I wonder how much the gun that kills George Zimmerman will go for?

I wouldn't make it obvious, but I'd tell the bartender to give him a shot of Patron (chilled) on me. I'd pay and walk out before he could acknowledge it.

It opens at $5000 and I'll be shocked (and disappointed) if it goes for much more than that. Most folks able to drop a substantial amount on something like that are at least smart enough to realize what a social albatross it would be if their name ever got out.

Some fricking dipshit from Hicksville will buy it for a few grand and it'll be the centerpiece of his 3 bedroom split-level.

Yeah, I'm not saying he was guilty of murder. It was definitely a murky situation at best. But he is definitely guilty of being a shitty human being. And the fact that he is a shitty human being is probably what triggered the events that lead to the shooting. That's not the same as intentionally shooting someone, but it still makes you an a-hole.
