Can't possibly read all 15 pages, so I don't know if this has been discussed (my apologies). I get that the whole racist angle is huge in this situation (rightly so). But it seems to me that it's putting the gun issue in the shadows. Why on earth do people like Zimmerman (or anybody, for that matter) get to walk around the streets with guns?? It is so f***ed up. Even here in DC, so many gun crimes. Makes me sick.

yeah a teenager giving the bird for the camera is a cause for concern cause it definitely shows that he would have grown up and never amount to nothing in life.

oh wait though....

And yet Trayvon never shot anyone. You know who has? George Zimmerman.

Anonymous wrote:I'm a new poster and cannot believe the majority of these posters seem to blame Trayvon and assume he was in the wrong. I have a teenage son and this story just breaks my heart. Trayvon sounds like he was a pretty normal teen, with pretty normal teen troubles, and caring, involved parents working through it with him. I am so saddened that his name/reputation is being attacked so. We should all be outraged, and fearful for our children.

It's mostly one aggressive poster who is rebroadcasting every sad thing he can find, because he has it in for a black kid. Oh wait, this is not about race. I mean a kid. Truthification process. Repeat something so often that it ends up on websites everywhere so that people assume it is true. Here is how it stacks up:

Zimmerman:

Arrested for assaulting an officer
Court order for domestic abuse
Fired from a bouncer job for being scary aggressive
Carried a weapon on neighborhood watch (no-no)
Pursued Trayvon when encouraged by police not to
28 yrs old and jacked, based on the current video of him (that pudgy mug shot was from an old arrest)
Story has several holes:
(1) He claims Trayvon came after him after he went back to his car. Trayvon was 120 feet from his home. Why does someone flee nearly all the way home and then turn around?
(2) He claims Trayvon was in hiiding. The place he was found has no hiding places
(3) Zimmerman's claim to be beat up is contradicted by the video of him at the police station
(4) Zimmerman's testimony was contradicted by what was heard by the girlfriend

Trayvon:
Walking home with skittles and tea
Unarmed
Likes baggy pants and sometimes wears gold fronts
Says stuff on twitter/fb, not actual criminal activity, just stuff that wingnuts pretend is "proof".
Has been suspended from school
No criminal record
Tall
Said he was walking away from his pursuer.
Was in fact walking toward his home.

My 4 year old said the same thing.

It appears that only one person in this crime has shot anyone.

So disgusting and sad. And it's really bringing out the racist assholes.
Why is this poor dead kid being put on trial for his tweets, emails, and pics? A kid giving the finger does not deserve to be killed in cold blood. And a high schooler who smokes weed also doesn't deserve to be killed in cold blood.
If we hacked in to any random teens stuff we would find this kind of stuff all over the place-yes, even from the good kids.
I hope the judge or whoever it was that knew gz father gets in big trouble for letting him off the hook. And I don't blame black people (and everyone else) to be so pissed about this, it's a disgusting injustice!
And yes, if this were a young attractive white kid that was shot by a Hispanic man there would be an outrage against Hispanics.

This link leads to a story about Spike Lee?

Saw this quote...sad

"A screenshot of Trayvon's Gmail inbox our source provided us is heartbreaking. Martin apparently used his Gmail account for his college search, and it's filled with emails about upcoming SAT tests and scholarship applications. ("Trayvon, now is the best time to take the SATs!") One email included the results of a career aptitude test, our source said. It "talked about his interest in aeronautics and stuff."

Zimmerman was fired as a bouncer for being too aggressive:

Yes, he actually is (or was) trying to get into the police force.

If the kid was as innocent as being claimed, why wouldn't he have just stopped, talked to the man, offered to call his parents? This kid, it turns out, had numerous problems prior to this incident. It wouldn't matter whether George Zimmerman followed him because George Zimmerman didn't bash the kid's head against the pavement. Also, if Travon did try to get Zimmerman's gun then his fingerprints should be on gun. George Zimmerman was a part of a neighborhood watch and if I were in a strange neighborhood, I would identify myself, whom I was visiting.

You are a liar. A bald face liar at that. If a strange man walked up to you, you would startsreaming at the top of your lungs and if you wer half as smart as you think, running in the other direction. Didnt your mother teach you not to talk to strangers. Are you not teaching your children not to talk to strangers.

BTW. Did you see what Zimmerman was wearing. What did he have on that identified him as a neighborhood watcher versus a robber, pedophile, serial killer, or organ snatcher.
