"Who woke up this rotting piece of human excrement?": Larry Wilmore on George Zimmerman's latest gun stunt

"I would feel very comfortable simply locking you away," says Wilmore

"Nightly Show" host Larry Wilmore last night devoted his main segment to "societal malignant tumor" George Zimmerman's gun auction relevancy stunt. The show was apparently shot before the news ran that the item was pulled from auction.

"Who woke up this rotting piece of human excrement?" Wilmore said. "And, better yet, why is he doing this?"

Asked the same, Zimmerman said he doesn't feel comfortable just locking it up.

"I would feel very comfortable simply locking you away," Wilmore responded. "You don't have to lock it up. You could just throw it in the trash -- you know, trash, that thing that you are and always will be."
