George Zimmerman is selling an original painting on eBay and with several days remaining on the auction, bids on the former neighborhood watch captain’s art had reached $100,000.
The Florida man posted his painting Monday, less than a week after domestic abuse charges against him were dropped when his girlfriend Samantha Scheibe chose not to pursue them....

Betcha the auction gets pulled before it ends, just like the aluminum “ant sculpture” was.

I don’t know, the seller has zero feedbacks. Oh what the heck, I’ll bid.
How can the housing complex be considered responsible? Makes no sense.
Is there any confirmation that this is the real GZ?
Why did eBay pull the aluminum ant colony sculpture?

"Zimmerman was acquitted of murder charges this summer after gunning down unarmed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in 2012"
Notice they used the photo of a 12 year old Trayvon Martin.
eBay never publicly tells why an auction is pulled, but I’m guessing there was some phony bidding going on that was stirred up by the video going “viral”. Previous sales of those ant sculptures never went over $250.
The other possibility was that animal rights freaks were raising a stink.
In the case of this painting, there do seem to be some legitimate bids, but there’s a lot of suspicious ones.
And then there’s the issue of whether GZ is attempting to profit from his “crime”, even though the jury said there was no crime.
But that doesn’t really matter. If enough pressure is put on eBay from the Justice-4-Trayvon crowd, they will pull the auction. eBay is a private company, and they make their own rules.
Ants aren’t animals, but never let the facts get in the way of liberal lunacy.
Who Knew???
Makes every sense. The housing complex has a lot of money and can afford the bill. Justice in civil trials doesn’t rest any longer with obsolete concepts like ‘whether people are guilty or not’.
George is very fortunate to have brother Robert.
“How can the housing complex be considered responsible?”
Because they have legally mandated insurance. The liberal mantra is “somebody is injured. Somebody has to pay!”
That’s why the legislature mandates insurance.
Ants are animals.
You’re right; their Kingdom is Animalia, their Class is Insecta.
huh kingdom animalia but don’t let the facts get in the way

No doubt the same 'animal rights' freaks that have various bug sprays in their cabinets.
Is there any confirmation that this is the real GZ?
At those prices you’d think someone would be asking for legitimacy. Heck where’s he
doing all the painting at? Is he toting it around from live in to live in? Maybe he’s
doing it in someones shop. Who knows but $100,000 will get people digging.
Well, he had to do something to earn a living after they fired him from Men’s Wearhouse.
