Someone posted somewhere that Al Sharpton was at the morque pulling Trayvon’s gold teeth out with pliers. I guess Jesse Jackson was holding Trayvon’s head down so Al could get at them.

Local rag reported this AM that the auctioneers pulled the plug?

Wanted to send them a message at the Orlando Sentinel but didn’t want to sign up

Must be a typo. $65,000 is more like it.

The listing is still up. Someone used a throw away account to do a nuclear bid. IOW a bid so ridiculously high as to expose another bidders ceiling.

Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, the Martin family, et al all tried to make money from Trayvon’s death, so why is it disgusting when the victim of the media lunching tries to recoup something?

Just because there’s a bid doesn’t mean they’ll ever pay off.

To offset mama's tshirt sales, someone should sell a tshirt that says, "I made a bid on Zimmerman's gun."

Bidding on the 9 mm Kel-Tec PF-9 pistol began at $5,000 and had reached more than $65 million by 5.45 a.m. E.T. The top bidder used the screen name “Racist McShootface.” That account was later deleted. Another bidder used the name Tamir Rice, which is the name of a 12-year-old boy shot by police in Cleveland while carrying a toy gun.

The most recent bid topping $65 million is by someone identified as Craig Bryant.

The highest bids that appear legitimate are an offer of $485,000 by a person identified as Brez Morrell and $290,000 by Ali Safaoui.

The United Gun Group website began hosting the auction after another website, GunBroker.com, halted bidding.
