‘Muslim-Free’ Gun Store Now Selling George Zimmerman’s Confederate Flag Paintings
So, he paints a Confederate flag over an American flag that he painted. That speaks volumes.

THE HUFFINGTON POST
George Zimmerman, who rose to national notoriety in 2012 after shooting and killing unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin, is now selling prints of a Confederate flag painting, in part to benefit a Florida gun store owner who is facing a lawsuit after declaring his business “Muslim-free.”
The prints — copies of an original work hand-painted by Zimmerman — are available for about $50 each at Florida Gun Supply in the city of Inverness. Andy Hallinan, the store’s owner, declared his store a “Muslim-free” zone in a July YouTube video, on the grounds that he did not want to “arm and train those who wish to do harm to my fellow patriots.”

Mark, I don’t understand why Zimmerman just can’t concentrate on getting his own life together. I thought he said that he had moved out of Florida. I’m pretty sure that he could move to some small town in Montana, or Alaska where he could sell his paintings at a flea market.

So let me get this straight Zimmerman paints over the American flag with the Confederate flag so that he can then argue that the 2nd amendment protects our 1st amendment am I understanding this right?
Okay so the store owner he is selling these in support of is Anti Muslim and refuses to serve any Muslims. So the question becomes how much do they really care about our Constitution?
when you consider that the same very constitution that idiot claims to love so much also clearly states that we have the right to religious freedom.
The store owner should be held accountable here in him denying Muslims the right to purchase or even visit the store is based on the fact that they are Muslim. in other words he is violating their Constitutional rights as citizens of this Nation.
if they have a right to own a gun per the 2nd Amendment then obviously that tells you that they are Americans or at least citizens. Even though they follow Islam the laws of this very land should apply to them and they are to be protected under the same laws as anybody else.
Funny that George would unzip himself after the Federal investigation was over with and come out and clearly state who he really is. I mean its Obvious look at what he is implying here, he has a distain for certain ethnic groups in addition he painted over the stars and stripes with the Confederate flag all this just after what took place in Charleston.
I hope they re open that investigation and nail his ass.

While I do agree with most of you words, I think that you have given too much credit to the Zimmertrash. He is in this case, as in everything else he does, looking to make a quick buck, and nothing more. He would align himself with the devil himself if he thought he could profit from doing so. I said after the Non-Conviction of the murder of Trayvon that the family should have filed an action against him in civil court. I realized then that they could never collect much (if any) money from him, but it would have allowed them to prevent him from profiting from his reputation, such as he is attempting to do in this instance. If every time he attempted to do something like this a lien was filed to attach any and all proceeds, it would basically prevent him from profiting from anything except honest work, and we all know that he will never attempt something like that…..

I seriously doubt he made that 100K, the bid history was filled with newbies to eBay (less than 5 transactions) and the last real bid from anyone with a real reputation on eBay was around $15K. In an interview in S. Florida he wouldn’t confirm he got 100K, only that it exceeded his expectations and that was $100. Even with these prints they have slashed the price by more than half.

The 100K he claims to have made was proven to be a hoax. I forget all the details but even a rep. fro e-bay stated as much. As I recall, he had a few faux bidders jacking the price up. It was at like……$5.00, the jumped from that to over 80 K in one bid, the to 95K in one bid then 100K.

It’s another toxic Zimmerman encounter. He seems to like to embrace gun store owners with bad outcomes for the owner.
1. The Arms Room…..caused a gun show to be canceled, then the owner had the event at his store where maybe 20 people max came to see Z.
2. Pompano Pat’s……where he was playing security cop at the store, the owner lost a mayor’s bid due to his association with Z.

In case any of us had any doubts about where he stood or who he really is, George Zimmerman is selling copies of a painting he made of the Confederate battle flag out of a gun shop in central west Florida.
A soul doesn’t get more rotten than this.
Adding fresh sting to a national wound he opened when he shot to death an African-American teenager walking home from a convenience store is a novel low, even for Zimmerman.
But do-gooder “Georgie,” as his bailiff uncle portrayed him at his murder trial, just had to intervene and come to another bigot’s rescue. He thought the Confederate flag was just the thing to show support for discrimination and profiling of another group, this time Muslims.
In a promotional video for the $48.90 flag prints (discounted from the original $97 that not even his supporters apparently wanted to pay) Zimmerman explains that he sought out Andy Hallinan, owner of Florida Gun Supply in Inverness, after learning that Hallinan had declared his store “Muslim Free” and was facing consequences.
Hallinan is being sued for discrimination by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization.
Zimmerman says he was moved to paint the Confederate flag and the words “The 2nd protects the 1st” as an ode to both the right to bear arms and to the Stars and Stripes he painted first and sold on eBay for $100,000.
And now, here he is, adding to his résumé fund-raising for the cause of discrimination: Buy a print and you’re entered in a raffle to win the original bad, childish George Zimmerman painting of the emblem of the South that fought to perpetuate slavery.
What a contrast to the dignified way the Miami parents of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin are conducting their lives and operating the Trayvon Martin Foundation to make a difference in young lives and to help parents who have suffered losses like theirs.
The foundation is hosting a Youth Empowerment & Solutions (YES) Conference in Miami Oct. 22-24. Last weekend, Trayvon’s father hosted a “Circle of Fathers” for men who have lost children to senseless gun violence.
“They have recommitted themselves to the mission to remember their son,” Adner Marcelin, spokesman for the Parks & Crump Law Firm that represents Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, told me Tuesday.
Fulton and Martin won’t comment on Zimmerman.
“The family does not comment on his actions or anything to do with him,” Marcelin said. “They are focused on their son and his foundation.”
Zimmerman, on the other hand, only gets himself into trouble with the law, with girlfriends who call the cops on him then run out of the picture scared for their lives.
He acts, post the not-guilty verdict, like the troubled man he is — the one the jury couldn’t or wouldn’t see. A man who fans the flames of a divided, ailing country with no thought to the family who lost a young son who was minding his own business and was where he belonged.
A man who had taken another’s life in legitimate self-defense would act with more dignity.

Chuquest,
Good points. I question how the gun owner determines religion? This question connects his decision to race because there would have to be a prejudicial assumption by the gun shop owner that all Asians are members of Islam. That would be a wrong assumption. Remember the church in Wisconsin, (I think it was) where the members were attacked and a cop was shot by the perpetrator who assumed that the members were Muslim when they weren’t?

That’s the case. Thanks. So, the question now is, does Andy Hallinan not sell guns to people dressed like Sikh’s assuming they’re Muslim, or does he discriminate against brown and yellow people assuming they are Muslim?
That’s probably because he wounded a police officer, who is considered under “terrorism” as a representative of the government.

Pate who contacted media sources however. D. Piercy has pages of tweets to news sources that he sent the link to with King’s birth certificate that is posted on Pate’s photobucket account. The grapevine has it that they are both now under the magnifying glass.

I just checked the ‘net to see if Robert had commented. I didn’t find anything on that but found this article I had never read before:
“Until his little brother, George, shot and killed an unarmed black teenager on the sidewalk of a Florida gated community more than two years ago, Robert Zimmerman Jr. was “the family fuckup.” He used the phrase with me a lot, but the first time was in October 2012, at a dark back table at the Algonquin Hotel’s Blue Bar in Manhattan, six months after what all the Zimmermans call “the incident.” He was downing a double gin and soda, and he was wearing a Hugo Boss suit, “diamond” earrings from Kohl’s, and the remnants of airbrush concealer from a quick appearance on Fox News’s Geraldo at Large. He went on to name all the ways he was a lousy namesake for his father, Bob, a former Army sergeant, and a disappointing son for his mother, Gladys, a fierce, devoutly Catholic first-generation immigrant from Peru. “Unemployed. College dropout. With a DWI and a boyfriend,” he said, listing his sins. (The boyfriend was a big problem for Gladys, somewhat less so for Bob.) But then, overnight, George had become “the Wreck-It Ralph of America,” and Robert—articulate, sweet-natured, maybe in over his head—was thrust into the role of family savior. “You know what that means?” he said, ordering a second gin and soda. “Zimmerman in charge of rebranding.”
