An unidentified Florida businessman is selling gun range targets designed to make people feel like they’re shooting Trayvon Martin. The target shows a silhouette in a black hoodie, holding Skittles and a can of iced tea, with a huge bullseye on it. The businessman admits he’s only in it for the money, adding that he sold out of the targets in two days.
The reaction
I can’t even begin to describe how disgusting this is or how sick to my stomach I am that someone would even think to capitalize off of such a horrific tragedy, especially by doing something so vile. Where is the compassion? I don’t know who’s worse, the guy selling these things or the people buying them.
