Last week, it was widely reported that murderous professional Internet troll and sentient colon polyp George Zimmerman planned to auction off the gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin.
In a description he posted on the United Gun Group's website, Zimmerman described the weapon as a "piece of American history" because that's a normal way to view the gun used to kill a teenager - if, of course, you were born to bring evil into the world, a la Viggo the Carpathian from Ghostbusters II.
Zimmerman opened the bidding at $5,000.
Proving that there's still some good in the world, the auction quickly became so overwhelmed with fake bids that the UGG's website crashed.
Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to halt the sale of the weapon, as the site continued to host the auction, just with a complex email verification process in place of its usual login.
It's partially because of the increased security that we don't know exactly how much the gun sold for, but TMZ is reporting that the auction netted Zimmerman a nauseating $120,000.
And what will he use the money for?
Well, if you know anything about Zimmerman, you won't be surprised to learn that he's donating the proceeds to legal groups that fight against the Black Lives Matter movement and anti-Hillary Clinton Super PACs.
Clearly a man with no politically- or racially-charged axe to grind whatsoever.
And for those who don't know much about Zimmerman, we recommend you take a gander at what he's been up to in the years since his controversial murder trial.
Highlights include hitting his girlfriend with a wine bottle and initiating more unecessary gunplay because we imagine if you could see the world through George Zimmerman's eyes, it would look like a first-person shooter game.
There are rumors that a famous figure (some say Kendrick Lamar) purchased the gun just to destroy it.
We'd like to believe that, but it seems too good to be true.
We hate to sound cynical, but sometimes in life, evil simply triumphs over good.
Case in point - George Zimmerman walks the streets as a free man.
