Being suspended three times by February in a school year is a MAJOR PROBLEM. I'm sure if it was your kid you would think it was a major problem ... but you cut TM slack for some reason. Why?
It was dualing restraining orders for domestic violence - and both were dropped by the way.
Anyway, no I wouldn't call George Zimmerman a thug. I believe TM jumped him and beat the crap out of him ... the beating is obvious. Trayvon was the aggressor .. not GZ.
THEY WERE NOT DROPPED. I have posted links to the actual police documents time and time again, and you people keep stating that. I mean, can't you read a police report? Do you never click on a link? Do you not want to learn the truth, the facts?
Maybe if Trayon's best friend would have written a book about him that would have been better, more acceptable to you. Why is it okay for Zimmerman and his friends to put their best image "out there" but it's not okay for the Martin family to do the same? If we can't trust the good things being said about Trayon in the articles because a publicist was hired by the family, then we have to discount every good thing being said about Zimmerman as well by his friends and family.
The best image wasn't out there for GZ in the beginning - he was labeled a racist. And actually still is, even in this thread - even though the FBI found no basis foor it.
But from the very moment this made national news, TM was made out to be a 12 year old boy - complete with pictures to prove it.

zimmerman did not get the crap beat out of him. he had a few cuts and was punched in the face.
the slight injuries does not prove martin was the aggressor only that he got in a few punches before he was shot in the heart and killed

These folks will NEVER acknowledge actual documented proof (in the form of police records and court records) of George Zimmerman's arrests for violence. They would rather make up a fantasy juvie record for Trayvon that does not exist because otherwise they can not justify their support of GZ.
To acknowledge that George Zimmerman was arrested 3 times for violent offenses is to acknowledge that GZ has the most compelling history of violence and aggression....and most likely was the aggressor against TM.

Heck, today even the state agreed that Trayvon Martin was on top of Zimmerman.

Especially when Trayvon's accomplishments and good nature have been attested to by teachers of his, people he worked for, relatives, and even a white supremicist hacker who while trying to smear him discovered an e-mail account full of requests about applying to different colleges and SATs. And who says he had to be perfect anyway? Let's say he had been failing several courses, like Zimmerman did, would that have made any difference for this trial?
He didn't fail any courses, like Zimmerman did. He didn't assault anyone, like Zimmerman did. He didn't shoot anyone to death, like Zimmerman did. But Trayvons the "thug"---why? because he's a young black male.
