All Things Trayvon Martin
TraceOneInfinite:
yeah man.. I mean, I remember the first pictures that came out, had Zimmerman looking like an big, mean dude in a jump suit, and Trayvon like a little boy. Now, it turns out that...
-Trayvon was 6'0" and Zimmerman 5'7"
-Trayvon was an experienced fighter, had bragged about his fights all over facebook and twitter. His older brother even asked if Trayvon would teach him how to fight.
-According to his posts on facebook and twitter he was a user of "drank" or "lean" some concoction made with cough syrup along with the skittles and Arizona Tea he bought from the store. The shit can supposedly make you aggressive or make you feel like your invincible.
-Trayvon walked a long ass way, in the rain, which was very unusual to walk such a distance in the rain just to eat skittles.
-They looked over Trayvon's body after his death and the only wound he had was the bullet wound. While Zimmerman on the other hand had severe lacerations on the back of his head and a broken nose.
-There is no evidence proving that Zimmerman kept following Trayvon after he was told not to. He's even recorded as saying "O.K." when requested not to follow Trayvon any further. In fact the reason he said he even got out the car was because he was asked what street he was on so he went to look at the street sign. And even if he did continue to follow Trayvon it was not illegal for him to continue to follow (although not the coolest thing in the world, but still legal).
...In spite of the angry mob that's out there ready to lynch Zimmerman, the evidence just doesn't stand up that Trayvon was some innocent kid and that Zimmerman was some big intimidating racist out to kill young blacks.

Held my son and told him he ain't going to the store by himself until he is 18 and dresses like a nerd. He looked at me weird and said, "I two." Still, I was very sad. But to say I'm surprised would be a stretch, just didn't think I'd actually react to not guilty.
Old saying goes, non-violence is for people of color, violence is for the privilege.

Come on MDogg... I know you always want to take the Liberal stance.. but my son is black and I wouldn't say anything like that to him.
...and as for rappers on Twitter, I know Snoop wasn't one of those rappers speaking out on twitter because he got off on self-defense after pursuing his victim in a car and Snoop wasn't even gettin his ass beat at the time of the murder.
anybody have a list of what rappers spoke out on Twitter?

I didn't get on here soon enough to get on all the quotes I wanted to. But thankfully no riots. I just wish there was this same protesting when the nypd got off for killing sean bell 7 years ago. I felt that the protestors woulda made a bigger difference if they went to florida & protested instead of so-cal & other cities. I understand what Victor Cruz felt. He shouldn't ruin his endorsements on Zimmerman. He's saying what i'm & others are thinking. Someone might go ahead & avenge Trayvon. The person who the media thought killed 2pac, Orlando Anderson, got killed himself. Was it that reason? Only god & the killer knows.
And the verdict surprised me like not at all. This is evil, racist, corrupt florida. The racial injustice that constantly goes on there.... ??? Had Casey Anthony been black, she'd be in jail right now. I just hope incidents like this won't happen again.

Who says? There's actually no evidence to support that. In fact Zimmerman agreed on the phone with the suggestion and said "O.K." when it was suggested not to follow. Regardless it was just a 911 dispatcher, and all dispatcher will say not to take risks because they could be held liable. It wasn't illegal for him to continue to follow.

O.J. and Snoop both got off on Murder Cases. It's hard to convict someone beyond a reasonable doubt, whether black or white.
