I didn't need to see a picture, nor read the article after seeing it was written by a genderly confused Lolla Mohammed Nur .

Lolla honey ... mohammed is a boys name.

Whatever.

But I DID read a littlr ... just to see.

I stopped at

"For those of us who understand how race relations in this country work, race is the elephant in the room. To us, it is clear what happened: Trayvon, a young, black male, was walking down a street in white, upper-middle class suburbia. He was consequently racially profiled, followed, and then killed - by a man who made assumptions about his identity and values merely by looking at him."

I’ll bet the homeowners there will be surprised to hear themselves described as “white, upper middle class” since most of them aren’t. It’s a converted apartment complex, as I understand it. Hardly Palm Beach.

Then she hasn't been paying attention.

The community Martin was killed in had people of all different races in it.

He was consequently racially profiled, followed, and then killed - by a man who made assumptions about his identity and values merely by looking at him.

Who described his behavior as being a person who looked like he was on drugs, and couldnt even positively identify his race, stating only, when asked, "He looks black."

Sorry, sweetie. The facts just don't match your perception. Maybe you should've learned the facts before forming that perception.
