What are the "facts" that we have been hearing:
1. Jumped the fence of a gated community. ( Criminal trespassing in Florida )
2. Just visiting his father because he was kicked out of school for 10 days in Miami. ( family lawyer sealed this incident )
3. Swung at his bus driver in school. ( ??? )
4 Selling drugs via Twitter.
5. Dressed as a thug.
6. Ran when confronted by the volunteer from the homeowners association.
7. Volunteer beaten up.
If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, then it's a duck people.

Stop with your silly arguments. The guy was trespassing plan and simple. When confronted he became violent and died because of it.

I recently stumbled across some photos of Trayvon Martin that are nothing like the young model citizen the MSM wants you to think he is. To be honest he looks like a thug and if I saw him walking around my backyard I would probably follow him too, if he then felt the need to attack me.....then yes I would kill him. The point is if we are going to make this a discussion of right or wrong or even a matter of race I think it is pathetic to distort the conversation with outdated pics.
here's the link

I see. Black people, or anyone really, who wears their hat sideways or sports a doo rag deserves to be followed, and maybe even killed?

I don't know why the authorities didnt take any legal action against Zimmerman because I was not there nor did I witness it, and I assume you weren't there either. Apparently the police investigated the crime scene and heard Zimmermans story, talked to witnesses and all the evidence gathered led them to believe it was self defense.
