Family Moments! The Final Days Of Trayvon Martin
GlobalGrind.com ^ | 3/28/12 | GlobalGrind.com-Martin/Fulton Family

Posted on 03/29/2012 3:44:42 AM PDT by torchthemummy

From the website:

"Continuing to stay strong in the face of intense pain, the Martin family reached out to us and shared some exclusive family photos taken 9 days before Trayvon’s death on February 17, 2012."

This is my second posting of this link. They apparently changed the title and link although what is curious is that this is the original title and was posted 22 hours ago but the original link, with the title "Trayvon Martin's Girlfriend Hospitalized (DETAILS)" (http://globalgrind.com/news/trayvon-martins-girlfriend-hospitalized-details) was posted 15 hours ago.

It isn't exactly clear when his former girlfriend was hospitalized since the stated reason is she collapsed a day after his wake when she found out she was the last person to talk to Martin. The wake was some time ago so I am a little confused. I guess it is apparently true that her last conversation wasn't disclosed to the police until recently. Either way the story mentions that she has been subpoenaed for the April 10th grand jury.

As to the pictures - my take:

Picture 1: Tallest guy in the room

Picture 2: Serious face-cute kid

Picture 3: Literally "long-in-the-saddle"

Picture 4: Tallest guy in the room - close-up

>>subpoenaed for the April 10th grand jury<<

Grand jury? I didn't think there was going to be one.

I'm confused also. :)

Or she's short, he's moderately tall, and the camera perspective accentuates the few feet of distance between them. Same for those standing at the extreme left in the rear compared to Trayvon who is nearer the one taking the picture. Also you have two people in the front stooping down which also makes him look taller.

I agree and I meant to mention that but no matter how tall he exactly is he is clearly a big, somewhat lanky guy. The picture on the moderately-sized horse really brings the point home.

Either way this release by the Martin/Fulton family eliminates anymore excuses for the media to show five-year-old photos so as to continue the narrative that this was a waif of a child.

What I really want to see is a video of Martin so that I can hear his voice. If it's a rather bassy one then that could easily be shown to have not been the voice heard on the 911 call screaming for help for over a minute before the gunshot (45 seconds on a 911 call recording where the caller says they were prompted by the screaming itself - so tack on at least 20 to grab a phone, call 911 and get through.)

That voice clearly sounds to me like Zimmerman at a desperate level compared to his voice on the original 911 call. If the Martin/Fulton family is so sure that is Trayvon's voice on that recording then we would have seen a video by now or heard something like a voice mail recording.

BTW - I read an older article from like the 16th where Trayvon's parents personally first heard the 911 call with the screaming and said that not only was it clearly Trayvon but that there had been TWO shots (one being a warning shot.) Now there is no evidence to support that claim and that is clear from the five calls I've heard that have witnesses stating only one shot.

“Grand jury? I didn’t think there was going to be one.”

Sounds like that was what the reporter wanted as an outcome. Guess it is not up to the reporter. /sarcasm

Global Grind and Michael Skolnik are directly linked to the Obama regime, and Obama's racist lynch mob.

https://twimg0-a.akamaihd.net/profile_images/1104977134/Headshot_from_Berlin_2_reasonably_small.jpg

Michael Skolnik is the Editor-In-Chief of GlobalGrind.com and the political director to Russell Simmons. Prior to this, Michael was an award-winning filmmaker. Follow him on twitter @MichaelSkolnik

I was born white....  So, today I decided to hit the ball.  Making a choice.  A choice to stand up for Trayvon Martin. 17 years old. black. innocent. murdered with a bag of skittles and a bottle of ice tea in his hands.

"Skolnik made it quite clear that the artists were gathered together because of their support for Obama's agenda"

 

The NEA, The White House, The Lies and The Cover-Up

Big Hollywood today reveals the extensive proof that shows the White House used the National Endowment for the Arts to push a political agenda favorable to President Obama. But it gets worse: the Administration lied about it, and tried to cover it up.

One of the first speakers on the call was Michael Skolnik, the "political director" for Def-Jam co-founder Russell Simmons. Skolnik made it quite clear that the artists were gathered together because of their support for Obama's agenda. Skolnik said that he had been "asked by folks in the White House and folks in the NEA" to "help bring together the independent artists community around the country." He told the callers that "the goal of all this and the goal of this phone call" included the effort "to support some of the president's initiatives" and "to push the president and push his administration."

It is instructive that this is the incident the left had to seize upon to demonstrate to blacks they’re still needed to protect them. It merely points out how little white-on-black crime there really is.

The dude Zimmerman turns out to be Hispanic-oops, turns out he mentors black kids-oops, and now has black friends defending him-oops one more time.

Backfire, and proves the opposite of what they’re trying to prove.

You know the media is contorting itself into pretzels when you see them refer to Zimmerman as a "white Hispanic."

Had Zimmerman done covered doing something the media and the liberals approve of - such as demonstrating against an anti-illegal immigration bill at a La Raza rally - we would not see "white" coupled with "Hispanic" in the media reports about his involvement. He would magically become a garden-variety "Hispanic."

Has no one else noticed he has that same arrogant, “can’t touch me” smirk on his face that obama has?

Yes, he did, but that is unfortunately the result of their toxic, evil culture.

Their music is poison of the mind and soul, they have no role models, the democrat party has destroyed their family unit and made them slaves just as it did previously in history, their churches are poison, schools teach them nothing...I could go on forever on this, but I think I’ll stop here.

The KKK in their wildest dreams could not have come up with something more destructive to blacks in America than the Gangsta culture.

White is his race. Hispanic is his ethnicity. There are black Hispanics too, though the majority are white.

And you know that if Zimmerman had been pictured holding a sign at a pro-amnesty La Raza rally, he would be called just a plain ‘hispanic’.

I figure the term "white" came from the police report, as that is his race. Hispanic was added after Zimmerman was identified.
