The Grio reports a backlash on Twitter brought about the cancellation:
The Move Tonight Inc (Twitter handle, @themove2night) said on their page about the event yesterday, "PROCEEDS from #Bentleys will be sent to the NAACP Scholarship Foundation and empty #Skittle bags are going to POLICE DEPT."
This message was tweeted several times -- to various followers -- as if to clarify that the event was truly a fundraiser for Trayvon's scholarship fund.
Finally, The Move Tonight Inc tweeted, "the flyer is down [because] it doesn't have all the info on it. We was trying to give back not profit. It was miscommunication."
The Move Tonight Inc apologized for all the confusion via Twitter.

As always, I touched and pleased at the amazingly good taste shown by my liberal brothers and sisters.

Not even the guarantee of free chicken wings before 10:30 can negate the idiocy of it all. OK...

EVERYONE FREE B4 11 WITH AN EMPTY BAG OF SKITTLES

Hey, why not?
If the POTUS is willing to use it to generate political donations, that kinda takes the lid off any sense of propriety.
