...............The twisted cretin who had these printed said: "My main motivation was to make money off the controversy." Just business, man. Nothing personal.

Even Mark O'Mara, the attorney for George Zimmerman, the 28-year-old neighborhood watch volunteer who has been charged with second-degree murder in the shooting, found it disgusting:

"It's this type of hatred -- that's what this is, it's hate-mongering -- that's going to make it more difficult to try this case," said O'Mara.

"I hope there is a crime that we can charge that person who made that with. I'm not sure what it is, but we need to come up with one."

[ProgressiveEconomist]

8. Sounds like a great KKK / Nazi recruitment tool

IMO at least a few of the hundreds or thousands of sickos who buy this product will ggraduate from simulation to the real thing, if they haven't already. This entrepreneur literally is profiting in blood money.

[Whisp]

9. I just hope Trayvon's parents and friends and family don't see this...

can you imagine!?

jeeze but some people are nothing but eat and shit machines, nothing else there at all.

10. I feel that way some days, I really do. Let's stay close with the humans.

[Initech]

[Downtown Hound]

12. Sometimes I really hope there's a hell. n/t

[Bolo Boffin]

13. Here's hoping the makers of Skittles and Arizona Iced Tea sues this guy for all he's worth

and donates any money recovered to a Trayvon Martin memorial.

[Meiko]

14. It looks like

he was careful not to use the product names in entirety.

[Bolo Boffin]

15. Yes, but the products are still recognizable.

I think they've got a case, especially with the common knowledge of these products being involved in the events of the shooting, and the statement that the seller was cashing in on this event.
