Is anyone familiar with the Southern Poverty Law Center? I'm trying to find out if they have labeled the NBPs a hate group.

Let's say that Zimmerman feared for his life once Martin reached for his gun.

Didn't that fear end once Zimmerman secured possession and control of the firearm? The one question nobody's really addressed is whether the use of lethal force was reasonable.

Trayvon was kicked out of school in October for graffiti after he was allegedly caught with a 'burglary tool' and a bag full of women's jewelry
Officials also suspended him once for skipping school and tardiness

-----------------------

How long before we will see more pictures of the real Trayvon...?

The parents will have to understand that by having putting a $ 1 million on the head of Zimmerman, there will be people looking in their background too...


It is a 2 way street and to be honest...Zimmerman may have acted to fast, but what the heck is a guy this age doing outside on a rainy night outside with a drink and skittles and a hoody on in an area where already 7-9 burglaries have been reported...wrong time, wrong place....or what the heck was he doing?

My son wasn't walking outside in the rain, but spending his time doing home work and as the parents claim their son was a good athlete, why was their son not a home showering from another practice...so many things that to me are strange if he is the sweet guy as they describe....my son is almost the same age and I see I different person...not one going to the gas station to get a drink, since we have a drink at home or you wait until the next day...is it just me who thinks it is strange to do this in the rain...sounds to me more than a borred teenager who has nothing on his hands... doesn't mean he deserved to die!
What the Hell is wrong with you? A picture of Martin with a f**king bottom grill is supposed to mean what exactly?


That he was "gangsta".


Wtf would the same bottom grill make the white girl above?

Also get the story on his suspensions straight! He was ACCUSED of spraying graffiti on a locker and when a security guard searched his backpack he found NO EVIDENCE of any paint or anything, but instead a strew driver and some lady's earrings (could have been his girlfriends) and which administration claimed that they were Bulgar tools.

Now what is the purpose of this smear campaign? Is it an attempt to try to justify Zimmeran's irrationality in DISOBEYING police orders by taking it upon himself to ask this black 17 yo what business he had in father's gated community? If he had kept his fat overzealous ass in his car like he was told the kid would be alive today, END OF STORY!

Did he deserve to pay with his life? Absolutely not.

Does his background deserve thorough scrutiny to try to understand who he really was? Absolutely yes.
If anything, his background makes him even more human and deserved of compassion.

He was probably a troubled youth headed down the wrong path. His mother sent him to his father to straighten him out. He had no violent history and no juvenile record, so this early intervention was an important first step to take to get him back on the straight and narrow.

Nothing about Trayvon's past indicate that he had a violent tendency. None of his suspensions were for fighting in school, assaulting anyone, etc.

Zimmerman, on the other hand, has a history that primarily involves physical violence.

Still not seeing how Trayvon comes off as the violent one in this comparison.

What does that matter. My gosh, people seem to zoom in on the wrong things. Two family lives are totally screwed. A young man dead, another found guilty in the public areana, and will most likely not get a fair trial, no matter what the truth is.
If he worked 12 hours a day, or is a stay at home person, that is not thing we should focus on, it should be finding out the complete truth, as to all pertinent facts in this case.
The only relevant facts, is that a young man is dead, and another already in the public perception is found to be guilty.
And FYI i do know some young people who are returning home, after being on their own, cause they are having a hard time making it, and they are young people from good decent hard working backgrounds.

Crocodile tears exist for a reason. But, I would rather not lug onto that fact but the main point that black and white is old news and can be played at ANY time. That is so yesterday, so Lee Atwaterish.

This is, indeed, a novel idea. No?

It wasn't "police orders" who told him to stay in the car. It was the 911 dispatcher...not a sworn officer of the law.... who requested he not follow. It was not a command. It was not legally enforceable.

Perhaps it is you who should get your story right.
