Trayvon may have had objectionable tweets, but where is the evidence that he was a thug? And no, smoking marijuana doesn't make you a thug - that is unless you consider Cheech and Chong thugs.
Hell, it's legal here in CO!

The hoodie is slowly going out of fashion thank God. As for the slack ass baggy pant look that has been around for a while now...when you see a 35 year old male wearing this out of date gear they simply look immature and low class...I see white kids adopting this "look" - Little do youth understand they are starting to look out of style.

Bill Whittle examines the death of Trayvon Martin and trial of George Zimmerman. Is the acquittal of Zimmerman one of the great civil rights injustices of our time? Find out.
I like to think that most, if not all, of us would stop to help under similar circumstances. It doesn't make him special or a hero; he just happened to be in the right place at the right time.
Funny how there continues to be threads and posts all over the place demonizing a dead teenager and his family and the same people doing that now seem to be involved in some lame PR campaign to try to create an image of Zimmerman that puts him in the best light possible.
Gag me.
Well, if they had an Obama sticker on the car I'd drive right by........
Trayvon turned 17 less than two weeks before Zimmerman murdered him. If Zimmerman, who was armed with a gun, had listened to the police, the kid (defined as anyone under 18) who was armed with a bag of skittles and a drink would be alive. No scuffle would have ensued.
Don't forget this IF:
If Trayvon was so damned pure and innocent as an angel, he coulda called 911 instead of Rachel for advice. Even then he didn't heed her admonition of 'Run, Trayvon, run!'.
He CHOSE to stay and pick a fight.
Conclusion: He did have some reason to not call 911. He was opening a can of whoopass on someone by surprise, and lost.
