George Zimmerman, the demented former Florida neighborhood watchman who fatally shot unarmed teen Trayvon Martin in 2012 is putting the killer handgun up for auction
He is hoping to pocket at least $5,000.
“I am honored and humbled to announce the sale of an American Firearm Icon,” Zimmerman wrote in his online description of the weapon. The perverted auction opens for bids at 11 a.m. Thursday.
“The firearm for sale is the firearm that was used to defend my life and end the brutal attack from Trayvon Martin on 2/26/2012 … 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,” Zimmerman wrote.
The Kel-Tec PF-9 is displayed on online auction site Gunbroker.com, with a picture of a court officer holding up the gun at his murder trial.
Zimmerman tagged the item with the Latin phrase, “Si Vis Pace Para Bellum,” which means “If you want peace, prepare for war.”
He also said a portion of the proceeds will go to help fight Black Lives Matter “violence against law enforcement officers” and to end “Hillary Clinton’s anti-firearm rhetoric.”
“They’re not going to be bidding on it, so I couldn’t care less about them,” Zimmerman told WOFL, a Florida Fox station. “I’m a free American. I can do what I like with my possessions.”
He made multiple references in his auction description to his enemies, including “B. Hussein Obama.”

If George Zimmerman really wanted to cash in, he’d auction off the opportunity to punch him in the face.

Keep in mind George Zimmerman is only part of the problem; don’t forget the plenty of Americans who actually want to buy his murder weapon
