And FYI, there is no need for the president or Holder to comment on the murder of every black person by a non-black person in this country.
And the president didn't say that Trayvon was his son. The president was asked about it and said that if he had a son, said son would look like Trayvon.
FWIW, I have a 13 year old son. My son looks a lot like Trayvon, same coloring and build (tall and skinny) etc. Most people when they are empathetic look toward commonalities with people going through difficult times.
Obama hasn't made race relations worse. All the undercover racist who came out after his election made race relations worse and continue to do so.
In other words, the cops and prosecutors didn't cover for the murderer.
ETA: if you were angered by the president's condolences to Martin's family, you were already part of the problem.

"Why are Holder, Obama and the other so called black leaders not speaking up about this? (Congress, illegal) "
Why should they. The Narrative that that Illegal Alliens kill black people would potentially damage their powerbase not to help it
You have a smack in the head problem with empathy?? Hopefully the smack will bring you some knowledge of what it means to provide condolences to a grieving family.
This father is so mad and I totally agree that it is mind boggling that none of the so called black leader or powerful people who constantly speak up about black being done wrong when they are killed by a white person EVEN while proven the white person didn't do anything wrong.
This young promising student was killed/murdered by an illegal Hispanic and as the father stated and testified about it is not news because his son was killed by an illegal Hispanic and not by a white person!
The criminal was already a criminal by entering illegally and coming here myself as a legal alien and how we are going through years of background checks, annual drivers license renewals for the entire family which cost thousands, incl having to travel in and out of the country to comply with the I-94 rules, this person did everything wrong and nobody knew who he really was.
Then he ends us killing a young promising, hard working kid who wants to make something from his life and parents who support their kid to get a degree.
This is what happened and how sad is it that this young guy was not named as "he could have been my son"!
No recognition from any of the black leaders but Fox news paid attention and showed the story!
I'm very sorry for this families loss and the hypocrisy that seems to go around when the parents and lawyer of this guy who robbed a gas station owner and showed no respect for the elderly and clearly was a criminal gets all the attention like he was a hero!
It is rare to see someone with such a strong sense of morality as yours, that's pretty impressive. Also, if you were legal, you were not an alien; you were as much a citizen as me, and I was born in the U.S.. You actually deserve citizenship more than I do (in my opinion), and a lot of other natural-born citizens, considering the fact that tests to get citizenship are brutal, so your knowledge of this country is likely much greater than ours.

Who are the (most well-known) undercover racists?
