Anyone can come on here and lie about being a cop with 6 kids. Your statements suck.

If you were a cop, you would know that being arrested for violence is NOT the same as being charged and convicted.

If he had convictions for violent crimes I doubt he would have been supported for captain of community watch by his neighbors.

Let the Sanford Polcie Department do their job. They know the facts.

Oh, don't like what I say therefore I must be lying about who I am...that is the weakest position one can take.

And, frankly, I don't care one bit what some anonymous internet twinkie thinks about my life. There are freepers who know me personally.

This was before daylight savings time started, if that makes a difference.

How’d a high school kid pay for $10,000 worth of gold teeth?

Where did that estimate come from?

He may or may not have had a prior history of such violence, but there can be little doubt he was a wannabe! E.g., have a look at his Twitter account. Here is the inspiring background picture he chose to set the tone for visitors to his Twitter page:

That’s the mug shot of rapper Corey Miller, aka C-Murder, who is doing life without parole for beating up and shooting to death 16-year-old Steve Thomas in 2002 at a night club in Harvey, Louisiana. Quite the hero for Trayvon to worship!

Clicked on your link to the twitter account and get the following message:
“Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!”

Looks like the scrubbing continues.

The mystery is how it got undeleted yesterday, then redeleted today. See the Daily Caller's piece on it.

I had earlier unearthed a Google cache of it, dated Feb 6, 2012 12:29:45 GMT, here. (You may need to disable JavaScript to avoid being redirected to a blank Twitter page.) I was quite surprised when that DC article popped up yesterday.

“In Zimmerman’s taped call to the PD he says that Martin ran. One runs away to avoid contact.

There is nothing that proves that Martin then confronted Zimmerman.”

You said:
“........Martin ran. One runs away to avoid contact.....”

Do a minimum amount of research to see how relatively small that “gated community” is. If Martin ran away to avoid contact he must have been one of the world’s slowest 17 year old. And I don’t think he was that. Perhaps one of the world’s MOST STUPID 17 year old, but not the slowest. He STUPIDLY decided to attack Zimmerman and pin Zimmerman into a position from which he could not retreat. That was a STUPID and FATAL mistake.

“There are freepers who know me personally.”

Good for you.

How come, as a LEO, you said he was “arrested for violence”? So what. People who haven’t committed a crime are arrested and later let go. Was Zimmerman charged, tried and convicted of a violent crime?

Thought of that song and those images of the ‘new’ Trayvon coming out...and laughed all day.

What an SNL skit it would make!

There's a photo on a link that’s been making the rounds here. At the link it states the photo was taken from Tray’s MySpace page. It shows a fellow with a large tattoo that takes up most of his arm. Lower on the page are photos of twitter comments, one that refers to a confrontation with a bus driver, but it’s the wrong TRAY

If you click on the link there and go to the actual "TRAY" MySpace page, the fellow describes himself as 19-years old and 5 feet 8 inches. He last logged in on 3/27/12 - yesterday.

These are photos of the Tray Martin who was shot by George Zimmerman. They were taken on February 17th, nine days before his death. He has no tattoos.

No wonder the author, Dan Linehan writes, "The picture we’re used to seeing to represent Trayvon Martin appears to be a far cry from how he actually looked once he was a few years older." He's published photos ~ and tweets ~ of the wrong fellow!

I'm sure no one's interested in this and I'll be called a few more names, but at least I tried.

There, fixed it.
