An Excellent Example of Pissing on Political Correctness!

As a number of separate events in recent years, from the killing of an unarmed black Florida teenager to the shooting at a Chattanooga military training base, raise the level of public discourse on discrimination across the United States, two men at the center of these controversies have joined forces to counter a much-needed dialogue on tolerance

George Zimmerman is a former neighborhood watch volunteer in Sanford, Florida who gained public notoriety after he shot and killed Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager in 2012. Andy Hallinan is the owner of the Florida Gun Supply store who recently declared his shop a “Muslim-Free zone.”At first glance, the cases of both men may not appear to be all that similar, but put them together and throw in a Confederate Flag, and you have a perfect nutshell of the many controversies plaguing a nationwide dialogue on discrimination.

And that’s precisely what happened.

On Monday, Hallinan announced a raffle on his website for an original Confederate flag painted by none other than George Zimmerman. According to the site, half the proceeds will go to Zimmerman’s legal bills, and the other half will go to Hallinan’s, who is currently facing a federal discrimination lawsuit filed by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). The proceeds will also help advance both men’s “mission to change the country.”
