>> ANDY HALLINAN IS A GUN SHOP OWNER IN FLORIDA WHO DOES NOT
WANT TO ALLOW ANY MUSLIM TO COME TO HIS ESTABLISHMENT.
OF COURSE
HE HAS TO DEAL WITH SOME LEGAL ISSUES BECAUSE OF THAT, BECAUSE
YOU CANNOT REALLY DISCRIMINATE AS A BUSINESS OWNER.
SO, GEORGE
ZIMMERMAN WANTS TO HELP HIM OUT.
SO WHAT IS HE DOING?
HE
PLANS ON SELLING HIS LATEST PIECE OF ART, AND SPLITTING ANY
PROFIT HE MAKES WITH HALLINAN.
HIS LATEST PIECE OF ART IS A CONFEDERATE FLAG, SO TAKE A LOOK
AT THAT.
HE IS REALLY A TALENTED ARTIST, I FEEL LIKE A
FIRST GRADER MAY BE ABLE TO DO THAT, BUT ANYWAYS.
HE EXPLAINS
WHAT THE PAINTING IS, AND WHY HE DID IT.
"THIS PAINTING WAS
PAINTED IN HONOR OF ANDY HALLINAN FOR BEING A TRUE
PATRIOT AND LEADING THE COUNTRY INTO A BETTER, SAFER AMERICA."
HE IS LEADING AMERICA INTO A BETTER FUTURE BY SELLING
GUNS AND DISCRIMINATING AGAINST MUSLIMS.
>> HE CLAIMS TO BE FOR AMERICA, EXCEPT FOR THE CONFEDERATE FLAG
REPRESENTS THE GROUP OF PEOPLE
WHO TRIED TO BETRAY AMERICA.
THE MUSLIM FREE ZONE GOES
AGAINST THE WHOLE POINT OF THE COUNTRY, WHICH RESPECTS ALL
RELIGIONS, BUT THESE GUYS ARE NOT WELL VERSED.
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS ABOUT PEOPLE WHO HAVE
FREE TIME ON THEIR HANDS, AND ARE RIGHT-WINGERS, LIKE
GEORGE W. BUSH, THEY THINK THAT THEY ARE ARTISTS.
PEOPLE HUMOR THEM, THAT IS A WONDERFUL PAINTING.
>> EVEN IF IT WAS SOMETHING I SUPPORTED, THE SUBJECT MATTER
WAS SOMETHING I SUPPORTED, IT IS JUST THE MOST EASY ñ
>> IT LITERALLY LOOKS CHILDISH ñ
>> REMEDIAL ART.
>> HE DREW AN AMERICAN FLAG LAST TIME, AND SOME IDIOT PAID HIM
$100,000 FOR ITS.
>> PEOPLE WILL PAY HIM COLD HARD CASH FOR HIS ARTWORK, WHICH IS
WHY HE FEELS ENCOURAGED TO DO THIS.
I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT HE
WILL SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON THIS, WHICH HE SAID, "THE FIRST
FLAG I PAINTED ON THIS CAMPUS WAS AN AMERICAN FLAG, BUT I DECIDED
TO REPAINT OVER IT WITH THE CONFEDERATE FLAG WHEN I HEARD
ANDY WAS GETTING SUED.
THE SECOND FLAG PAINTED WAS THE
BATTLE FLAG, WHICH WE NEED IN AMERICA IN ORDER TO
PROTECT THE
FIRST."
>> YOU JUST PAINTED OVER THE AMERICAN FLAG WITH THE FLAG
OF THE TRADERS, WHO LITERALLY WENT TO WAR AGAINST AMERICA.
AND HE THINKS HE IS SMART.
THE SECOND FLAG PREVENTS THE FIRST ONE, DOUBLE ENTENDRE.
>> FULL DISCLOSURE HERE, I DON'T REALLY CARE WHAT GEORGE
ZIMMERMAN DOES.
IF GEORGE ZIMMERMAN SELLS HIS ART FOR ONE
MILLION DOLLARS I SERIOUSLY DON'T CARE.
THE ONLY REASON WHY I BROUGHT
THIS STORY TO THE SHOW, IS TO POINT TO ALL OF YOU WHO WATCHED OUR
COVERAGE OF THE TRAYVON MARTIN STORY, AND TOLD US OVER AND OVER
AGAIN, GEORGE ZIMMERMAN IS NOT RACIST.
HE WAS JUST PROTECTING
HIMSELF, HE DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST ANYONE.
HE IS
A RACIST PIECE OF SHIT, AND FOR ANYONE WHO DEFENDS HIM AND SAYS
HE IS NOT A RACIST, YOU ARE A
MORON.
YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT.
>> NONETHELESS, WE'RE DOING A POLL ON IT.
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN
HAS DEDICATED A CONFEDERATE FLAG PAINTING TO A GUN SHOP OWNER WHO
BANNED MUSLIMS.
DOES THIS PROVE
ZIMMERMAN IS A RACIST?
LOOK, I HAVE A SLIGHTLY MORE NUANCED
OPINION THAN ANA HAS ON THIS.
I CAN GET IT, AND I MIGHT BE IN THAT
THIRTEEN PERCENT THAT ARE SAYING, HE IS JUST LOOKING FOR ATTENTION.
I THINK THAT IS A FAIR COMMENT
TO MAKE.
OVERALL, DOES GEORGE ZIMMERMAN CARE ABOUT
MAKING SURE THAT BLACK PEOPLE AREN'T OFFENDED?
NO, OF COURSE
NOT.
IS HE GOING TO GO OUT OF HIS WAY TO OFFEND BLACK PEOPLE?
APPARENTLY SO.
ITíS NOT LIKE HE IS UNAWARE THAT BLACK PEOPLE
FIND IT OFFENSIVE, HE KNOWS THAT SOME PEOPLE THOUGHT HE WAS
RACIST FOR SHOOTING THAT BLACK
KID WHO WAS UNARMED.
AND HE GOES, I'M GOING TO RUB IT IN YOUR FACE.
>> TAKE THE CONFEDERATE FLAG PART OF THIS OUT.
LET'S SAY HE WAS PAINTING DUCKS, AND HE WANTS TO RAISE MONEY
FOR THIS MAN.
HE WANTS TO RAISE MONEY FOR THIS MAN BECAUSE THIS MAN IS
DISCRIMINATING AGAINST MUSLIMS.
HOW MUCH MORE EVIDENCE DO YOU NEED?
HE IS A BAD PERSON.
>> AS I LOOK AT THOSE PICTURES OF ZIMMERMAN ON THOSE GRAPHS,
THE IRONY IS THAT THERE IS A CHANCE THAT HALLINAN WOULD HAVE
THOUGHT HE WAS MUSLIM.
>> I LOVE THE PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT HE IS KIND OF LATINO
SO HE CANNOT BE RACIST.
>> THAT'S TRUE, ALL LATINOS ARE EXEMPT FROM RACISM AT BIRTH.
