Albert Einstein. George Takei. Jerry Garcia.
All of those men and many others have had an asteroid named after them. And if William Lowell Putnam III, trustee of Lowell Observatory, has his way, another name will be added to that list: Trayvon Martin.
The retired broadcast executive, alpinist, author and Flagstaff resident believes that Martin has not received justice.

Personally, I have a hemorrhoid named Trayvon . . .
It’s like that line from Caddyshack, “We’ve got a pool and a pond. The pond is better for you.”

If the asteroid threatens Earth, will we be allowed to shoot at it?

AHEM!! That’s “hole of color”, buddy!

The retired broadcast executive, alpinist, author and Flagstaff resident believes that Martin has not received justice.But, George Zimmerman did. Trayvon got what he was asking for and doesn't deserve anymore time in the public mindset.
The leftists want to believe the fairytale the DBM created about Trayvon, but the rest of us know he was a thug wannabee. Let this kid rest in peace!

What a strange coincidence.
I just had a “movement” that I’m going to name “William Lowell Putnam III”.

Asteroid- broken remains of something-dense, dead and deadly. And it only makes the news when it destroys itself or something else. Yeah-appropriate.

Oh, but he DID receive justice. It came in the form of a 9mm round to the chest.
