History are you freakin kidding me. - - - Updated - - - It is this kind of racist babble that folks use to try and justify cowards like Zimmerman murdering a young black male.
What excuses should be used? The ones that we hear why blacks are gunning blacks down in droves daily? THOSE excuses like, "He disrespected me"?
Why would you think I was joking? Do you think that when blacks were celebrating OJ's release, they thought they were going down as national embarrassments? I don't expect they don't feel much different now.
It was just a sad tragic case...nobody wins! Look at what it has done to the country, it is dividing us even more. But my heart goes out to Trayvon's family, also to George's family...such a tragedy for everyone involved!
you contradict yourself! first you call trayvon a 'big boy', now his father has to babysit him at night? make up your mind!
But i thought that was on the list of what america was based on!? freedom, but also drugs and money....
Racist? Where....... Show me. The word BOY? Trayvon Martin was presented as a "CHILD" by his family, his defenders and by the prosecution. What is a male child referred to as? A BOY. The racism in my post exists in YOUR HEART AND MIND....
No point in babysitting him now, those coffin lids have catches and the casket lid is pretty damn heavy. Just a reminder, he's still dead and no number of excuses of amount of finger pointing will change that
i just don't get why the people im running into on this site is saying things like 'thats what that hoodlum gets' or 'to bad for druggie trayvon' like they now him! both sides are wrong honestly! supporters of trayvon for rioting instead of just praying that god took him, and hoping that they can prevent things like this... and zimmerman supporters for taking pleasure in a young man getting shot! nobody should be happy someone is dead (drugs or not), and nobody should honor someone's last moments by causing mayhem!
I find it interesting that Zimmerman's previous NE 9-11 calls on suspicious behavior was always on young black males. It would be easier to believe he didn't racially profile Martin if he had also called in suspicious behavior on young white males. Are, are we to believe that no white teenagers walk through that neighborhood? I have no doubt that Zimmerman's views black men as dangerous. Ironically, he was supposed to be protecting Martin because Martin was in that neighborhood visiting. Instead, Zimmerman saw him as someone who didn't belong. That is very telling.
I find it interesting that Zimmerman's great grandfather was black, he took a black girl to his high school prom, He even tutored black children, there is nothing to indicate that Zimmerman was racist. Maybe the reason for the calls was that he knew the teeneagers that LIVED in the neighborhood, and knew when there was a stranger there.
You are sure making a lot of assumptions about a boy that can't speak for himself any longer. There is nothing that indicates Trayvon Martin was a troubled child. He was suspended from school three times for minor things really. His character was trashed by the right wing media, and sadly some people think their character attacks were true. The jewelry in Martins backpack was not stolen. The police checked it against a data base of reported stolen goods. Martin was also suspended for being tardy too many times and for having a bag with pot residue on it. Yes, he obviously used pot at some point, but if he had been a pot head the amount of THC in his system would have been must more than it was. I call all these things youthful indiscretions, you know like what George W Bush did when he was young. I see no reason to think that Martin's parents were not good parents. It's obvious that his Dad was a big part of his life as well. I don't know why people like you want to think the worst of a dead boy who had no real record of violence or bad behavior. He wasn't perfect, but then again no kid is. I have three adult children, they were not perfect either. They got suspended from school for different reasons, but they turned out to be good adults and it's a shame Trayvon Martin didn't get a chance to become an adult also. - - - Updated - - - You are sure making a lot of assumptions about a boy that can't speak for himself any longer.

I hope the trayvonites are enjoying the lip service from Eric Holder. His speech to the NAACP mentions no certainty about bringing charges against George. LOL!
The only interesting thing is where your getting your info since "Zimmerman's previous NE 9-11 calls on suspicious behavior was always on young black males" is false.
A young mother in the neighborhood had her house broken into by two black males while she was in the house. Zimmerman befriended her. Martin should have simply said "I'm visiting my dad." And then walked back to the apartment. Nothing else would have happened. Martin would be alive. Zimmerman would be watching the neighborhood. Young males (regardless of race) are getting this idea that they are equal to older males, and shouldn't be held accountable or even questioned by them. I had a neighborhood white boy (16 or 17) who came at me cursing, because I just gestured (nothing obscene) for him to slow down driving through the neighborhood. Young males need to be calmed down. I do that with my teenaged sons, and IMHO, if Trayvon's Dad had done that, Trayvon would be alive today.
exactly... when seconds count... it's good to know cops are mere minutes away Trayvons legacy.... better realize not all citizens will just allow you to beat their head in...
My kid gets suspended from school ONE TIME and he has trouble.... TWICE is not going to be a good thing.... THREE TIMES? he's not going to be buying Skittles for a very long time. I was a real pain for my teachers in High School.... went there to get only TWO things.... laid and out. Spent four years and NEVER got suspended. Sorry, they don't suspend Good Kids....certainly not three times.
They weren't. Out of 46 calls over 8 years 4 were black suspects. There was also a black kid like 7 or so who was playing in the street with no supervision. There were also white guys and hispanics he called in as suspects. It is this kind of bull(*)(*)(*)(*) that is going to keep people violent. Ignorance to the facts.
True, but it does let Zimmerman know that he's being looked at (by more people every day). Hope he likes his new life of hide and seek.
Trayvon Martin's "legacy" will be the EXPOSURE of a RACE BAIT INSPIRED, PURELY RACIAL, POLITICAL prosecution of an INNOCENT MAN, that was thwarted by six brave women. It will be about the SLANDERING and DEFAMING of that innocent man, while , simultaneously creating a COMPETELY, OUTRAGEOUSLY FALSE narrative, of an "innocent child", who was , in fact, a drug abusing, discipline problem, thieving, violent THUG, who called HIMSELF the "No Limit (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)", and whose ASSAULT and BATTERY of the SLANDERED , INNOCENT MAN, is what got him shot dead. The fallout of the prosecution's MISCONDUCT, in WITHOLDING EVIDENCE to thwart the defense of the INNOCENT MAN, is not even beginning to settle,and if Corey is NOT DISBARRED , it will be an another outrage. Trayvon Martin's legacy is the story if an ATTEMPTED TRAVESTY, a MISCARRIAGE of JUSTICE, at the behest of RACE BAITERS and POLITICAL INTERESTS...that was DEFEATED. Thank God for that.
Killed by a wannabe cop/cowboy, who is a wussie to boot, who has to hide for the rest of his miserable pussie life.
