George Zimmerman, the man who claims he shot 17 year-old Trayvon Martin in self-defense, has launched a website to raise money for his legal defense, and for “living expenses.”
While even attorneys for Trayvon Martin’s family support Zimmerman’s right to raise money for his defense, the site contains praise for “supporters” who vandalized a black cultural center at Ohio State University, and even seems to encourage more of the same.
The Frank W. Hale Black Cultural Center at Ohio State University was vandalized Thursday morning, according to The Associated Press:
The graffiti painted early Thursday said “Long Live Zimmerman.”
…Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee says university police are “vigorously investigating.”
“I was really outraged by this on a university that takes great pride in civility and respect,” Gee told WBNS. The graffiti has been removed.

A silent, 44-minute vigil was held today at OSU to recognize the 44 days since Trayvon Martin was killed in Florida.
It was discovered the same day a campus rally was held for Martin and Shaima Alawadi, an Iraqi woman who was fatally beaten last month in her El Cajon, Calif., home.
Zimmerman’s site contains an “Album” page that contains two photos. One is of someone holding a magic-marker “Justice For Zimmerman” sign. The other is a shot of the vandalized Frank W. Hale Black Cultural Center. The “Album” page contains this heading: more at source
