No boxing match but doing well as an artist.

$30,000.00 It's good to be "aquitted".

He probably would have gotten a lot more money
if he did an 'after' portrait of Martin, after he was
through with him.

The man is beyond therapy, I think. He is way
out there, and the state has enabled him.

Funny, he actually drew Martin rather sympathetically. He looks more juvenile and vulnerable in the painting, I think.

[primal-hunger.livejournal.com]

Well, he was just a kid. Not much of a kill at all.

JFC, I couldn't agree more. this is just all kinds of fucked up.

Zimmerman's broad, happy smile really tops it off nicely.

Yeah, what the fuck is that. Even someone who felt that way about it usually wouldn't be stupid enough to pose for a photograph like that.

I suppose he believes that he was the victim
for being prosecuted;

and he is happy
for having triumphed
over injustice.

Or maybe he is just high.

Pretty sure this is shopped.

[hardblue.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, that is a redeeming fact.
That did seem too fucked up.

I guess he didn't paint that, either.

And to think it's not even April's Fool day.

[hardblue.livejournal.com]

That's what made it so good.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

[the-rukh.livejournal.com]

Yeah that painting is still terrible.

Oh also didn't he plagiarize that?

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

He painted a photograph, which I actually think is just fine. An attribution would have been nice though.

As I recall, Ebay pulled it from sales til the case is worked out. The original artist is challenging it. He had another that is the same problem.

Until I saw the evidence in the comments here that this is photoshopped, I was outraged.

Now I'm just scratching my head, wondering why someone bothered. This piece of scum is so hateable all on his own--who needs additional fictitious reasons?

Seriously, though, the photoshopping is REALLY well done. Until I saw the original image it was shopped from, I was totally taken in.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

Me too. Normally I would delete this but I left it up because it was well done, its really more outrageous he sold that American flag painting for 100K. The meme/article riffs on the plagiarism, exploitation, and manufactured outrage. Got me. I left it up.

It borked. :(
