Target: Jim Irvine, President of the Buckeye Firearms Association Goal: Condemn the Buckeye Firearms Association for raising money to rearm George Zimmerman Recently, George Zimmerman was found not guilty of murdering Trayvon Martin, a young African-American youth. Due to the Stand Your Ground law, Zimmerman was acquitted on grounds of self defense. All evidence of the trial is being held by the Justice Department, including Zimmermans firearm. Now, an Ohio pro-gun group, Buckeye Firearms Association, has started a fundraiser called The Zimmerman Second Amendment Fund, which aims to gather donations in an effort to purchase Zimmerman a new firearm and other equipment.

At least one did:

"Juror B-37 says they found the law 'very confusing' but decided that they had to focus on the moments immediately before Martin was shot, even if Zimmerman instigated the altercation, 'because of the heat of the moment and the stand your ground.'"Here's the SYG portion of the jury instructions:

If George Zimmerman was not engaged in an unlawful activity and was attacked in anyplace where he had a right to be, he had no duty to retreat and had the right to stand his ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he reasonably believed that it was necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.
They can’t be pleased with the comments LOL!
“This is blatant racism: attempting to re-arm Zimmerman equates to outright support of his crime. “
According to the court, there was no crime.
They say “SHARE THIS” as a caption to a picture of a handgun. Sounds like they are in favor of sharing weaponry.
The signatures are worse than the comments.

What’s up with this?

Nice - actions speak louder than words...
‘May have sent it out’ would be more accurate than to say he sent it for sure.
Very few, but Zimmerman's position was even worse. According to Zimmerman, Martin had noticed that he had the gun. Zimmerman's jacket had fallen open while he was squirming underneath Martin so he could move his head off the concrete and onto the grass. Martin said, "You're doing to die tonight motherf*****!" and tried to grab Zimmerman's gun. George got to it first, and used it immediately.
That's Zimmerman's story. It makes sense and is consistent with the known evidence.
Once Martin noticed the gun, the fight became about who could get to the gun first. Forget the fistfight, this was a to-the-death battle for the gun.
Then why condemn Zimmerman for protecting himself?
There are obviously many factors at work, but here's one: I bet if a pollster asked black Americans who disagree with the verdict about the details of what happened that night, they would be shown to be abysmally ignorant of the known evidence and of Zimmerman's description of what happened. They hide from the truth, so Zimmerman has to hide from them.
true
Story Update:
The City of Forney said it will not discipline an officer who took an iPhone photo of George Zimmerman’s driver’s license during a traffic stop one week ago.
The sound of an iPhone camera click’ can be heard on dashcam footage while the officer was in his squad car calling in Zimmerman’s driver’s license information.
After that you can hear the ‘unlock’ sound and typing on the keyboard.
The city manager said the officer took the photo and sent it to his lieutenant. The officer told city officials he wanted his superiors to be aware of who he stopped in case there were questions from the media.
