Trayvon Martin’s father led the FAMU football team onto the field before the Rattlers’ season opener Sunday at the Citrus Bowl, embracing his role as honorary captain this season.

“It feels good just to be a part of that, man. I had a son that used to go to FAMU and Trayvon wanted to go to FAMU,” Martin said immediately after taking the field.

Trayvon Martin "wanted to go" to FAMU?

FAMU has its choice of applicants who have never committed burglary and who have never been suspended from high school.

How would Trayvon have ever gone to any college? He was a thief, a drug user, a wannabe gang banger. He would never had made it at a college, would not have been accepted.

If you look at the fact this was FAMU, he would have been accepted, no problem.

A couple of months ago I saw a list with the graduation rates for all the HBCU's and FAMU was in the middle with a 34% graduation rate. I found the link at Black, HBCU Grad Rates

The tables are from the Department of Education.

Right-O.

The caring father would have just been another immoral, wife-cheating sperm donor had his son not jumped an American guardian of his neighborhood’s safety and proceeded to kick the crap out of him.

Ooops! The honky had a loaded gun!

“He was such a good boy”

I’m sure the last thing on Trayvon’s mind was going to college.

I guess he finds his son had a lot promising future now that he’s dead.

A good place for “fruit” to be — in a citrus bowl.

The death of his son Trayvon is the best thing that ever happened to this guy!

I'm waiting for him to plagarize Cindy Sheehan:

"Someday you can say, you didn't know Trayvon, but you knew his dad!"

Well now, perhaps Pops Martin should have told his son that it's not a good idea to give a beat-down to a man with a gun, because he might get capped.

I am getting so sick of the sainthood the media has bestowed on this violent thug.

I’m wondering how much free travel, rooms, meals, and seats he got out of it. TM’s parents are going to ride the name of their thug kid for every dime they can.

I'm wondering what they will start the bidding on the grill at eBay.

A perfect place for a kid growing marijuana and using slim jims.

Of course his dad thought the "A" was for Astronautical.

"Trayvon wanted to go to FAMU"

Well of course he did...and Obama wanted to go there too...that is, before he made friends with his friends family in Pakistan and they funded him to the Ivy League.

Poor Trayvon, killed because he was trying to beat a man to death because he didn't like the way he looked at him. Should have thought about the man being armed before he started beating on him.

Trayvon Martin got exactly what he deserved.

More of these gangsta-wannabes like him, who are out killing innocents because they're bored, or don't like the way someone looks, or because they feel like they need to kill white babies, or beat old white men to death who try and resist them need to get exactly the same. Either from the end of a gun, or on the end of a rope.

Trayvon wanted to go to FAMU

He would have majored in criminology and hung out with his high school sweetheart Rachel Jeanteal (who would have made the Cheerleading squad). It would have been the quintessential American success story!

Not exactly a good father. He should be ashamed of himself.

No the decedent was black not white. He was killed in a hazing ritual
