Selective outrage: Trayvon Martin edition

Nicholas Stix:

An unidentified entrepreneur admits he is trying to profit off Trayvon Martin’s death by selling gun range targets featuring the teen who’s death has sparked a nationwide controversy. Although Martin’s face does not appear on the paper targets, they feature a hoodie with crosshairs aimed at the chest.  A bag of Skittles is tucked in the pocket and a hand is holding a can resembling iced tea.   

The seller would not disclose how many paper targets had been made, but said in an email, “The response is overwhelming.  I sold out in 2 days.”

Are they just mad because he left off the “TM”?

Meanwhile, you can see how busted up Trayvon’s mom is.

Why, she’s so shattered she can’t bring herself to even leave the house oh wait…

She’s not stupid.

She’s seen the host of America’s Most Wanted make a lucrative career out of his kid’s death.

Even the kids are getting into the act.

Not that that is anything new...
