    I am sure we have all seen this image of an alleged Trayvon making the rounds:

    [​IMG]

    Problem is, it ain't him. Those two photos can be found on a Facebook page of a kid of the same name.
    That kid lists his school as being Myers Middle School, which is in New York.

    Trayvon's Wiki page lists his home as Miami, and his school is Miami Carol City High School. There is a difference between Middle School and High School.

    Miami is a long way from New York. The picture of Trayvon is simply from a Facebook page of a kid, who happens to share Trayvon's first name.

    So, that is that. Lets stop posting pictures of a kid who shares the same name, okay?

    You have proof of this? Note where this kid attends school - in New York, not in Miami.

    QUESTION: Why didn't the Lame Stream media .....The NY Times, specifically......... publish the fact that Zimmerman had a bloody face and a scalp wound immediately after the shooting incident of Trayvon ???

    This info came out on the "McLaughlin Group" show on Sat Mar 24, 2012.

    I am still leaning towards the possibility that Zimmerman didn't use good judgment in tailing Trayvon after the cops told him not to do that ....... however, the subsequent scuffle seems to indicate that Trayvon was kicking Zimmy's butt when he shot Trayvon.

    My question is this.....Regardless of Zimmerman's fault for the incident (my opinion subject to additional facts), the NY Times still was obviously stacking the deck against Zimmerman AND THAT IS CONTEMPTIBLE LIEberrhoidal JOURNALISM typical of NY Times.

    So a mugger can attack you and when he kills you he can claim self defense.

    Y'know the funny thing about those pictures ... no, he still wouldn't look scary, and even if he did, it's not okay to shoot scary people just because they're scary.

    C'mon. All you badass-libertarian gun-toting folks must think you look pretty tough, right? Do you really want it to be okay to shoot you just 'cause you intimidate others?

    Question. Why did the racist cops not record the "fact" that Zimmerman was grazed and bleeding in their initial report but add it later?

    Maybe so, but it doesn't change the fact that those images are NOT Trayvon. So lets stop posting pictures of a poor child who happens to share the same name, okay?

    Who cares how gangster he acts or looks. I don't know all the details in this case but the one glaring detail is the 911 operator telling him to stop pursuing the kid.

    Bottom line is there is absolutely no reason for Zimmerman to approach him. And most likely Zimmerman would not have approached the kid if he didn't have a weapon. This is exactly what happens when private citizens try to play cops... even if the kid acted as a gangster and attacked Zimmerman, it still comes down to Zimmerman actively pursuing someone that he thought was sketchy. Unless someone is on your private property or touching your private property, just call the cops.

    It could be an account set up by someone who doesn't know Trayvon.

    These comments match up with the hundreds of other comments made by his big brother and others. He was a thug and had it coming. The courts will come to this conclusion.

    It would be simple to find out. Ask his parents if he had any dental work done.

    The photo of an older Trayvon with gold “grills” is definitely him. Nobody is disputing that, unless there is an identical looking Trayvon with the same grills. The "gang signs" photo is of a Trayvon Martin from Savannah, GA. People probably made the mistake of thinking this was him because all his Facebook activity stopped around the time of the incident. The dead one goes by Trayvon Slimm martin on Facebook (a photo of him displaying the same gold grills is on his feed prior to the incident).

    There are plenty of other real pictures of Trayvon Martin, from his MySpace and Twitter (where his ID is @NO_LIMIT_(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)). I believe that's where the other popular one came from.

    The point is that the media is still showing 4 year old photos of Trayvon from when he was 13, when in reality he was almost an adult. This is confirmed on his (now unused) MySpace where photos of him in that T-shirt are dated 2008.

    Whether one of the circulating photos is fake or not, it does not change the manipulation and bias the media is guilty of by showing a photo of a child, not of a late teen with gold grills and tattoos.

    Nobody is implying that this means that Trayvon deserved to die, but people are looking at a picture of a 13 year old and thinking it is inconceivable that he could have attacked Zimmerman to the point he feared for his life. So it is manipulating public opinion on the issue.

    There is no witness evidence that suggests Zimmerman attacked Martin first. None.

    A fairer comparison would be a stranger following you, you turning around, punching him in the face, jumping on top of him, pounding his head into the ground, and then the stranger manages to get his gun out and shoots you, and claims self defense.

    The question then is whether you believe that

    a) someone following you justifies punching them in the face and pounding their head into the cement

    b) someone on top of you pounding your head on the concrete justifies you shooting them

    Zimmerman receiving a beat down and Martin getting shot could both have been advoided at different points. It depends whether Zimmerman did something other than just following Martin to provoke the attack, and whether Zimmerman has genuine reason to fear for his life when he shot Martin (I think it's safe to say someone on top of you has the advantage, and could easily get your gun if you didn't get it first).
