Trayvon Martin's ten day suspension
Charleston Conservative Examiner ^ | March 25, 2012 | Kyle Rogers

Posted on 03/25/2012 9:35:41 PM PDT by Kazan

A twitter message, allegedly sent by Trayvon's older brother, suggests Trayvon was suspended for assaulting a bus driver.

Trayvon Martin was on a suspension from school when he was tragically shot last February 26th. His school, Dr. Micheal M. Krop Senoir High School, has not given any details. His family has also evaded the issue. According to the Kansas City Star, the length of the suspension was ten days. This suggests a very serious offense.

"So - in his mind - he had already decided what Martin was up to - and he wasn’t going to let him get away with it."

Not sure how you decided what he was thinking, but when Zimmerman was told he didn't need to follow - he was heading back to his SUV when he was jumped from behind by Travon & during the scuffle on the ground, Trayvon tried to take Zimmerman's gun. That's how he got shot in the chest.

That's because this isn't really about Zimmerman.

Exactly. It's another nail in the coffin of freedom. When one group is protected and treated differently from another, freedom is lost. We already have a system where some groups are more equal than others. If conservatives allow Mr. Zimmerman to be railroaded, we all lose.

We already live in a society where it can be dangerous to say anything a person of color might deem to find offensive. This incident is making that even more dangerous.

Thank you! I think many people would do the same thing if they thought something suspicious was going on in their neighborhood. I’ve stopped a few teens in my neighborhood doing stupid stuff. Maybe there’s something about a small feisty woman that’s intimidating.

Assualt or drugs..... Hopefully the facts will come out after the Grand Jury hearing.

From an article in the Orlando Sentinel

Snip
Trayvon was visiting his father’s fiancée, who lived there. He had been suspended from school in Miami after being found with an empty marijuana baggie. Miami schools have a zero-tolerance policy for drug possession.

Given that the liberal media and the mob has been LYING abut the case, you may be confused about the so-called “facts.”

Martin did not go out looking for Zimmerman. Zimmerman went looking for Martin.

Well, at least he was doing his job instead of sitting at Dunkin Donuts. Since the media has reported that Mr. Zimmerman had found it necessary to place 60 calls to police (over a several year period) reveals that

(1) there was a lot of crime going on

(2) Mr. Zimmerman was out there doing his job.

All Mr. Martin had to do was use the cell phone he was talking to his girlfriend on to call the police.

There was a teacher the other day - quoted in some suck up MSM newspaper (reporter too lazy to check truth) that he was suspended for something minor - like being late to class.

But there is a whole bunch of assumption of Trayvon’s guilt, just simply because he’s black and tall going on though.

WHO are you accusing of that? Back up your words. The assumption is Zimmerman should be arrested because he is white Hispanic. GOT IT?? Don't spin the spin.

Actually, quite the converse. After he was killed and the MSM and Obama’s self-serving “son” comment, coupled with perfunctory black leader outrage and bias, he was transformed from a tatted 17 year old in a hoodie in a neighborhood he probably was in up to no good, he has been transformed into a sweet 12 year old - while the “White hispanic” killer has been perped out with orange jumpsuit pictures all round...nope, no bias or manipulation here.

You make shit up and then deflect when called out on it. You're nothing more than a freaking troll. Go join your circle jerk brothers over at the DU.

Exactly! And Jonty - keep your cr*ap off of here, troll!

I know. I have some very gullible facebook “friends” who are off the rails on this thing. One even suggests that this was “premeditated murder”. Oh really? Based on WHAT? I have tried to interject some objectivity into the conversation- including that Zimmerman is hispanic, but was told because I am a white Christian, I really have no say in it.

But THEY—also white Christians—can convict this man based on the media’s lies and distortions. I left them to their “I am a better Christian because I support the poor black people and believe white gun-owners are basically racists” tripe. UGH.

So very interesting to see the changes in this kid’s face over the years. The early photos of him do show a sweet-looking kid. Somewhere he went wrong. I’ve always wondered what was going on with his parents...

This is going to blow back in their faces big time. Fortunately, left wing radicals and Black Panthers and the Rev. Al Sharpton are even stupidier than Republicans!

I’m not going anywhere, champ.

I’ll be here, probably forever.

Probably even as long as it takes you to think of a screen name.

Yaelle: I always love reading your posts so I’m pretty shocked that you are coming to this story from this strange angle. As I said to you on a previous thread, if Zimmerman said anything at all (debatable), he said “goon” not “coon.” Now I could be wrong about this but you don’t know the facts either.

If everything that is being printed is true, Zimmerman read Martin’s body language pretty accurately and decided to follow him in his capacity as a volunteer watch. He may very well have stopped this kid from committing a crime. We don’t know that, of course, but it is a possibility.
