George Zimmerman sure loves to see his name in the paper and online. His latest despicable act was to try and auction off the gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin at GunBroker.com.

Now it looks like the auction site has pulled the gun, which is something.

Marc Lamont Hill, was on CNN's News Day earlier today and made an astute observation about Zimmerman's lunacy.

CNN's host Alisyn Camerota, made the point that Zimmerman was acquitted, so he's free to do what he likes, but seems like he hasn't move past the incident.

Hill said it appears like George is trying to incite more rage over the incident, especially those that were "deeply wounded by this incident."

He continued, "George Zimmerman does not want this to go away. He wants to see more anger, more rage, more pain...he consistently pokes at the same national wound."

"Imagine if OJ Simpson decided to start a line of steak knives right after the unfortunate killings in the 90s, Of course he could have done it, of course he was a legal citizen who had been found not guilty by a jury of his peers, but it would have been insensitive and mean.”

This is so wrong.
