I remember growing up and always hearing my parents and their friends talk about one pivotal moment in their lives. They remembered exactly where they were at that point. Exactly who told them the news. Exactly how they felt once it all sunk in. When President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, everyone who was alive during that time remembers.
One year ago, today, was our generations moment. It was late on a Saturday night. Some of us were out to dinner. Some of us were home with our families. Some of us were still shopping. Some of us were driving in our cars. But, no matter where we were, we all heard and we all will always remember. Shortly after 10PM Eastern Standard Time, after 16 hours of deliberation, a six member, all-female jury acquitted George Zimmerman of murdering 17 year old Trayvon Martin. Silence. Quiet. And then some tears. Rolled down my face as I sat in my

didn’t he have 2 moms?
I think all warning labels should be written in cursive!
White-boy-who-wanna-be-black Skolnik is obviously too stupid to realize that Trayvon would try to beat his lily-white @ss in a heartbeat too.
I can think of millions of greater heroes, namely parents who teach their children to not act violently towards other people, not to steal, and not to act like punks. Trayvon’s parents failed on all accounts, and now he is dead.
“Were they not divorced?”
Don’t know, but both were residents of Miami-Dade school district when Trayvon was suspended from the district high school for having committed two offenses that qualified as felonies. His parents then sent Trayvon to live with his father’s girl friend in Sanford, some 200 miles distant, where he was seen by a neighborhood watch officer named Zimmerman sort of aimlessly wandering about after having been shopping for some of the key ingredients of his then favorite mine-bending drug.
“Michael Skolnik is the Editor-In-Chief of GlobalGrind.com and the political director to Russell Simmons. He is on the Board of Directors of The Trayvon Martin Foundation. Prior to this, Michael was an award-winning filmmaker.”
Political Director to a rap music producer. M’kay.

Creepy “ass cracker”.
Skolnik defended a “gay bashing homophobe”.
“Creepy ass” cracker.
Or a thuggis bigot.
BTW, I hope we can keep the local cops from returning the stolen items found in Trayvon's possession to the rightful owners, if they haven't already done so. Trayvon Memorabilia were moving slowly enough .... and with PR like this article should really take off again. Let no unpleasant factoids get in the way of that!
BTW, my idea of pre-packaged "Trayvon Grillwork" for sale through dentists in the 'hood was severely impacted by rising gold prices. Not my fault. I hope it won't affect my bonus. (I do have Reggie Love ready to endorse)
The moment the media missed its mark thinking the man bit the dog, NBC doctors 911 tape and still the half-black Spanish kid is acquitted. Skolnick is, along with the other loons,
Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be crack smoking thugs who think laws don’t apply to themselves...unless you can leverage their unfortunate deaths into big Liberal Guilt money.
ha ha ...I think this guy should try harder.... BWAHAHAHA
“He is on the Board of Directors of The Trayvon Martin Foundation.”
His paycheck is dependent on people remembering Trayvon. You can’t get someone to understand something their paycheck depends on them not understanding.
I hate when autocorrect changes “grifters” to “heroes.”
OHFORGAWDSSAKE! What a bunch of bull.
Sounds like another White Guilt Liberal who thinks his intestines are reproductive organs
After listening and watching the GZ trial....you either are a moron or idiot to believe GZ murdered Trayvon Martin
His parents are no heroes...mom kicked TM out of the house...and dad still displayed his Crips tattoo on his neck (media would PhotoShop and edit it out)
How much money have they raked in so far?
so very much horse crap.
These two raised a punk ass thug.
