Frankly, I am sick of the attempt to canonize Trayvon. The bottom line is he was BASHING someone's head into concrete....and he told his victim "You're gonna die tonight...."

So the devastation this woman says she feels is a result of the actions of the son she apparently left to another woman to raise.

And the COWARDLY media will never ask her or Benny Crump or daddy Tracy any tough questions about the actions or character of George Zimmermann's attacker.

there wasn't enough evidence at trial to convict him under Florida law.

THE END.

Me too - big time. The boy thug got what he was asking for. Probably not how he thought the beat down would turn out.

The berieved mother.

And she never got the gold jewelry Trayvon stole either.

The corrupt police took it and turned it over to the original owner.

Life in Whitey-Town is just so unfair.

Actually, there wasn’t enough evidence to even charge him, much less convict him.

“got away with murder” for fatally shooting Trayvon Martin, but that there wasn’t enough evidence at trial to convict him under Florida law.”

Someone in the state of Fla. ought to explain to these people that evidence (or in SOME cases, the lack of it), is the reason a we have a judge and jury who meet to determine innocence or guilt of the accused...instead of following the ‘judgement’ of public opinion.

Public opinion whicn is at best flawed, fallable, emotional, subjective (and THANKS TO THE MSM- both misinformed and uninformed)- I say that Public Opinion...CANNOT be relied upon to properly and objectively assess facts or evidence!!!

You don’t have to be a genius to comprehend this.

Where were these two people when Trayvon was getting into trouble and embarking on a criminal career? Are they proud of “No Limits”?

and he told his victim “You’re gonna die tonight....”

That is the first I heard this. Trayvon told Zimmerman this statement?

You can stop now, leeches. Nobody cares other than the jobless retards who hang on the street and on their Obama phones all day and night. Most American’s agree with the verdict and are OVER this piss and moan fest concocted by you race hustling liars and the pandering queers who run the newsrooms.

It’s time to stop now, you’re talking to yourselves at this point.

Day 6 of trial:
(CNN) — Jurors got to hear George Zimmerman’s story in his own words for the first time Monday as his interviews with police were played in court.

The former neighborhood watch captain is charged with second-degree murder for killing 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida, on February 26, 2012. Zimmerman told police he was pursuing the teenager because there had been a rash of crime in the area. A confrontation ensued, and Zimmerman said he was forced to kill Martin.

“I tried to defend myself,” Zimmerman said during his first police interview the night of the shooting. “He just started punching me in the face, and I started screaming for help. I couldn’t see. I couldn’t breathe.”

Tape of Zimmerman’s retelling of the confrontation between him and Martin could bolster the defense’s key contention: that Zimmerman reacted in self-defense.

Zimmerman began his interview with investigator Doris Singleton by saying that there had been a lot of crime in the area and that he had started a neighborhood watch program. He said he spotted Martin, whom he thought looked suspicious, and began to follow him.

At some point, Martin circled Zimmerman’s car as he followed him through the neighborhood, Zimmerman said, then the teenager disappeared into the “darkness.”

“The dispatcher told me ‘Where are you?’ and I said ‘I am trying to find out where he went,’ and he said, ‘We don’t need you to do that,’ and I said ‘OK,’ ” Zimmerman told the investigator.

Zimmerman then started to head back to his car, he said, but never got there.

“(Martin) jumped out from the bushes, and he said, ‘What the (expletive) is your problem, homie?’ And I got my cell phone out to call 911 this time, and I said, ‘I don’t have a problem.’ And he goes, ‘Now you have a problem,’ and he punched me in the nose,” Zimmerman told the investigator.

Zimmerman said the blow knocked him to the ground, and Martin got on top of him.

“He puts his hand on my nose and my mouth, and he says ‘You are going to die tonight,’ ” said Zimmerman. “As he banged my head again, I just pulled out my firearm and shot him… He is mounted on top of me, and I just shot him, and he falls off. And he’s, like, ‘Alright you got it, you got it.’ “

Sybrina Fulton will most likely order another 100,000 t-shirts and 500,000 beverage coolers for sale by Trayvon, Inc. Call now, operators are standing by.

That is so weird. We did not hear that on the tape where the screaming occurred. Did you hear it? This case is crazier everyday.

The Dems have dummied up on this after the initial moronic comments from a few typical liberals right after the verdict. They have to know this isn’t playing well in fly over country. The only ones still blabbering is the insane liberal black caucus, but that’s SOP for them.
