Come now. Tray would have progressed a lot in these last 5 years. Why, he’d probably be over half way through a 7 year sentence.

Not a single tough question.

These two appeared on local Miami TV too. Lots of adulation, no mention that George Zimmerman’s attacker’s twitter account, the home life (or lack thereof) these two had, or the juvenile delinquent behavior....

His name is tarnished by his behavior. You can spend a lifetime but you'll never clean that.

They were not there. “Their side” is necessarily conjecture and wishful thinking.

I am so tired of the the Establishment Media pushing this false narrative.

First question: Why did you raise such a violent thug?
Second: Did you ever get high with your son?
Third: Do you sleep well at night knowing you're exploiting your sons' death for monetary gain?

Just another dangerous Yute that was responsible for his own demise through stupidity and delusions of bravado.
Don’t want to get shot??? It’s easy, don’t attack an armed person and then threaten to kill him...end of story. Mr. Skittles and Watermelon Juice deserved what he got.

Any critical self-examination of their parenting skills?

Or lack thereof?

Well, writing in cursive is harder than it looks.

How much money do you think you can make off of what’s his name?

My only question would be “Do you ever wish you had raised your son better”?

They asked if Obama could’ve done more...”he did as much as he could do”.

Next question...did he publicize it enough and hide the facts well enough of what type of “person” Trayvon was so you can maximize your profits by telling his BS story?

Funny because from my recollection, Trayvon didn't have “parents”.

How much money have you made off the death of your son, and how much of it have you spent?
