George Zimmerman Says He’s Auctioning Off His Gun from Trayvon Martin Shooting

George Zimmerman is auctioning off the gun he used to fatally shoot Trayvon Martin.

Zimmerman, who was found not guilty of second-degree murder and manslaughter after arguing self-defense, explained in an interview with WOGX, “I’m a free American. I can do what I like with my possessions.”

He said he got the gun back after the trial, and thinks he should auction it off because “it’s time to move past the firearm, and if I sell it and it sells, and I move past it.”

I clicked on the "x" to hide it and told Facebook it was because it was offensive or inappropriate. My own personal Facebook war.
