He was on drugs. His liver showed damage from doing them.

[LEFT]Among its reports, Trayvon Martin’s drug use, explaining how the Skittles and Arizona Watermelon Fruit Juice Cocktail drink he carried that night are ingredients that, when mixed with dextromethorphan (DXM) cough syrup, create “Lean”, a concocted high which can cause psychosis and aggression over the longer term. According to the autopsy report, Martin’s liver showed damage consistent with DXM abuse.

Liver damage? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Oh puh-LEEZE! Do you know how many years & years of very heavy drinking of actual alcohol it takes to damage your liver? And you're saying some 17 year old or however old he was has liver damage. Hahahahaha, I guess that warrants him being murdered in the eyes of you conservatives, doesn't it? Why don't you people give it a rest, huh? Someone who was unarmed was killed & all you people can do is continually blame it on the dead person, the one who can't speak for himself. How pathetic you all are.

Technically true but a liver issue is mentioned on page 4 but later says no diagnostic problems found.

True, but that's not what happened - according the FBI and the jury that heard all the evidence.

Exactly. The question is why did Zimmerman profile Martin. Was it because of race or suspicious behavior. The evidence supports suspicious behavior. No one has shown any evidence of racial profiling.

TM was black. What more evidence do you need that he was racially profiled.

What suspicious behavior? Walking thru the neighborhood his father lives in?

There are times a young man needs a Father to step up to the plate and be the disciplinarian.
At his age, Young men respect (or fear) their fathers more than they will their mothers.

On this issue I completely understand his parents motivation. They seem like very good people.

Trayvon was not expelled from school, nor did his mother kick him out. He was serving a 10-day suspension after an empty baggie with marijuana residue was found in his backpack. His mother sent him to stay with his dad while serving the suspension as punishment so that he would be isolated from his friends.
