US: Killer’s Confederate art on sale in gun shop
Flag paintings by Trayvon Martin’s shooter are on sale in anti-Muslim shop

A FLORIDA gun shop that refuses to serve Muslims is selling signed prints of a Confederate flag painted by the killer of black teenager Trayvon Martin.

George Zimmerman painted his version of the symbol of slavery as a tribute to Florida Gun Supply owner Andy Hallinan “for being a true patriot and leading the country into a better, safer America.”

The prints are being sold at the discount price of $50 (£32) on the shop’s website, accompanied by a paranoid “mini-documentary” video dated Monday entitled Cultural Cleansing & Bias Media = Time for Change! featuring reactionaries such as rocker Ted Nugent.

  • The trial of Glendon Crawford, accused of trying to build a mobile X-ray gun to kill worshippers at a mosque in New York state, began on Monday.
    Mr Crawford’s lawyer argued that his client should be acquitted because the device was useless.
