I'd sue her if it was me.

“I didn’t feel like I was going to have a normal life or a regular life after my son had been murdered killed in self defense,” she said. “I just want my life back.”

He could still be the subject of a civil lawsuit, which he’d have a decent chance of losing.

Sabrina didn’t raise Trayvon full time last the age of 2. Trayvin was raised in various ad hoc circumstances. Part of the reason he was headed down the wrong road in life. Due to lack of positive parental involvement by her when her boy was alive.

How many days did his body lay in the morgue before she showed interest? Was she on of the ones involved in the fight over the T-shirts?

She does sound a tad racist. Does she ever think of this when she looks in the mirror. Maybe her son also, like her saw people with skin color and judged people.

That was Mike “Gentle Giant” Brown’s mother. I know it’s hard to keep track.

“She said her son’s death was a reminder of the ugliness that still lives on in American society.”

Lady, your son got shot because he was committing ugliness in the form of assault.

“so if I take the hoodie out of the equation, what do we have left? We have the color of his skin.”

No, you have the fact that your son was a violent thug. And that is entirely on you, madame.

Fulton said. “It’s a message.”

If you raise Gang Banger Thugs there is a good chance some honest law abiding citizen will give them what they want, a Bullet to the Head.

I don’t see how that has anything to do with it.

I guess the concept of raising your son to be a man instead of a gang banger is completely out of the question?

I’m curious. If someone was following you around your neighborhood with a gun, would you curl up in the fetal position and surrender?

She discusses his clothing as a possible factor leading to his death, but she does not discuss his behavior at the time as a possible factor. Trayvon was holding down a man to the ground and beating on him.
