FL Capitol Mural: Man Who Looks Like Zimmerman Shoots Trayvon Martin Likeness
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | August 9, 2013 | Tony Lee

A mural of a man who looks like George Zimmerman shooting a likeness of Trayvon Martin was unveiled Friday at the state Capitol of Florida.

A mirror sits in the spot under a hoodie where Trayvon Martin's face would be, bordered by Martin Luther King, Jr.'s face decorated with streaks of blood....

It’s a particularly pernicious lie that if allowed would have long term negative consequences culturally and perhaps economically. It does not accurately portray events, not even remotely. It has no place in the Florida Civil Rights Hall of Fame.

The lie is being advanced in other venues, specifically with attempts to have the “hoodie” placed in the Smithsonian.

Ah, stick it in the Smithsonian as a curio if it has to be. Let it get lost amidst the colossal clutter. The Smithsonian has scads and scads of stuff, good bad and ugly.

But yes. It would be interesting to instigate an investigation of how this punchbowl skunk managed to evade the system to get put in there.

It’s huge - some reports are 50’ x 8’ and others are 100’ long.

THINK what a boon to our first amendment it would be if every h.s. kid were required to pass a course in political cartooning..e.g. learn at LEAST how to sketch ....what fun it would be if the the great FreeRepublic wordsmiths could submit their own pictures along with their great comments comments. DOUBLE THE FUN...

Gotta say, Zimmerman never looked that good in real life.

It is very sad that our country seems to have given over control to a bunch of people who are at the level of maturity of middle school students.

What can we do about this? Anything?

“This is not a furor that a garden variety punk can generate.”

Let us give credit where credit is due. First of all Trayvon Martin is dead, so he’s not ‘generating’ this. Then we have the professional race hustlers, con men and slanderers, Sharpton and Jackson, then we have our anti-white racist president and the even more stridently anti-white atty general Eric Holder; and then we have as supreme movers in this case the self-hating almost totally white, yet anti-white MSM.

I wouldn’t give the devil the blame for this travesty. I’m pretty sure the devil thinks these people are all fools.

An ‘artist’ named Serrano did Pi$$ Christ. Mapplethorp was into bizarre homo photography. It’s tough to tell the sickos without a scorecard.

Can we get those in 28” x 49” sheets, yet, at the range?

Yes, it takes two to do the spiritual tango of hate.

Or, thankfully, of love.

Choose your partner! And do-si-do.

Anyhow, the devil’s game is to damn God. As sinners we’ve, sadly, all got a foot we placed on his boat, though some have accepted God’s offer of a more powerful transportation back to heaven and they won’t be snatched away even though the devil seeks to compromise them.

The Trayvonistas are pushing the envelope. Their madness knows no bounds.

The mirror is in the worng place.

Put the mirror where Zimmerman’s picture is and it would get a lot more attention. Or just cut a hole there and let people stand behind it to get their pictures taken.
