What a surprise, the gun the massacred the young, Trayvon Martin is sold in an auction. The buyer is unknown (a coward at that) but the action is sickening. Buying the gun that killed an innocent teenage boy who received no justice for himself or his family, is d**n near equivalent to placing his head on your mantle in a living room. The man, George Zimmerman, who was acquitted of second degree murder in 2013 now dangles his weapon of choice above the masses and is set to claim ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS for it?! This country is SICK.
To even twist the knife harder, Zimmerman says he will donate some of his proceeds. where you may ask? According to NBC, the jack a** is donating, “to groups that oppose the Black Lives Matter movement, as well as groups opposing Hillary Clinton.” And that’s facts people. I know I’ve seen the information swirling around social media and news but “why?” is my main question. Why is it OK to treat a 17 year old boy walking down the street like a full grown buck during hunting season? 
What’s so numbing is that this is the image that pops into millions of Americans heads when they hear of stories like this. Zimmerman proud of his killing, eager to show to the world, ready to devour and gorge into his new prize. I know this is a bit dramatic, but so is the action of murdering a boy, receiving no prosecution, and then selling the gun that did it. What a joke.
Im sure all the Martin family want’s is peace, but the justice system and Zimmerman keep re opening scars rather than tending to them. This goes for the family and supporters all over the world. Black Lives Do Matter and will continue to, regardless of how much pain and suffering that is inflicted upon them.
