Quote:George Zimmerman has sparked fury on Twitter yet again after retweeting a picture of Trayvon Martin’s dead body.
A fan had posted the shocking image on the social network alongside a message to Zimmerman saying: ‘Z-Man is a one man army.’
Zimmerman then retweeted the image to more than 10,000 followers on his account, which he often uses to troll people online.
Rawstory.com reported Zimmerman retweeted the image on Friday – but it has since disappeared from his profile.
It is unclear if Zimmerman or the original poster deleted the image or if it was removed by Twitter.
It led to Twitter users hurling abuse at Zimmerman, who was branded a ‘miserable excuse for a human being.’

I don't know if he was legally guilty or not, but he is and continues to be a total dirtball.

Agreed. And I feel its important to keep that fact in the public eye since he seems to want the attention.

It's a 4chan user, just trolling for attention.
"Can't Flim Flam the Zim Zam" was a phrase that started there.
Contains Racist and Foul Language

I've heard a lot about 4chan over the years and have never ventured there. Doesn't sound like a fun place to be.

It is where current pop-culture is born.
Reddit is a cleaner version, but 4chan was the wild west from which it spawned.
The thing about 4chan is that you have to be wise enough to deduce the trolling from factual posts (something I think you are more than capable of).
There is a lot of vulgar things there, but I just don't pay attention to those bits.
I generally visit the weapons board, as there are some military members who frequent and talk about a lot of things that I find interesting.
The "random" board /b/ is the crazy board where most kids go and post unspeakable things.
I stay out of /b/.
Truth be told, it is probably a government honeypot now, to catch hackers and child porn peoples.
The political board is terribly racist and is saturated by edgy teens promoting Nazism, but on occasion there are some deep discussions.
The most fascinating thing about 4chan is that news pops up there before ANY national organization reports it.
I knew about Bin Laden's death 20 minutes before it was ever on any news feed.
Meh.... the place is just a place to waste time and shake your head at humanity.

Are you jealous that I've been shaking my head at other people ?
