“I even paid my school."

Fuck. This. You took money that people gave your husband for STALKING AND KILLING AN UNARMED TEENAGER and spent it on tuition bills? FUCK YOU. And to make a hoodie joke? DOUBLE FUCK YOU.

I hope this fucker spends the rest of his life in jail, and he and his wife gets sued for every single cent they collected.

This. How to pay off your student loans: murder a black child and wait for the dough to roll in from racist fuckwads. These people are utterly sickening.

Seconded, with RAGE.

“Ah man, that feels good. That there are people in America that care so consumed with hatred as to happily reward me monetarily for stalking and killing an unarmed black minor."
Fixed.

In another call on April 17, during an extended discussion of security measures they would use to hide him from the press or enemies,

Zimmerman says, “Well, I have my hoodie.”

It is not clear whether he was making a joke about Trayvon’s iconic hooded sweatshirt or made the remark without irony.
It's cute that they act like there's any question that it was a joke.

A sports writer I follow on Twitter had a perfect response to this story, so I'll just leave it here:

...more than $200,000 flooded into his PayPal account.

Is it okay for me to hate humanity for a little while after hearing that?

Same reaction I had. I guess crime really does pay. Revolting.
