George Zimmerman Auctioning Off Gun Used to Kill Trayvon Martin

George Zimmerman has been very careful watching the moves he makes after being branded as "Public Enemy Number One." While every now and again we've seen him appear in the media for outrageous accusations, this one takes the cake. The former neighborhood watchman is auctioning off the gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin.

The 32-year-old left the world appalled and disgusted as he was acquitted of second-degree murder and manslaughter in 2013. The gun in question was recently returned to him back from authorities after they kept it for trial purposes.

According to the NY Daily News, Zimmerman is looking to cash in on the gun he used to brutally shoot Martin with. He is hoping to get at least $5,000 from it. The auction was just recently opened yesterday morning.

"I am honored and humbled to announce the sale of an American Firearm Icon," Zimmerman described the weapon. "The firearm for sale is the firearm that was used to defend my life and end the brutal attack from Trayvon Martin on 2/26/2012. Many have expressed interest in owning and displaying the firearm including The Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C. This is a piece of American History.

The gun, Kel-Tec-PF-9, is currently displayed on the online auction site Gunbroker.com, with a court officer holding the gun at the murder trial. Zimmerman tagged the item with the Latin phrase, "Si Vis Pace Para Bellum," meaning, "If you want peace, prepare for war."

The site reports that Zimmerman is giving proceeds from the auction to help fight the Black Lives Matter movement to protect law enforcement and to end Hilary Clinton's anti-firearm mission.

The Smithsonian responded to Zimmerman's claim stating that they have never been interested in obtaining the gun.

"We have never expressed interest in collecting George Zimmerman's firearm, and have no plans to ever collect or display it in any museum," the Smithsonian Museum posted on Twitter.
