The late Trayvon Martin’s parents joined President Obama at the White House Thursday to help usher in the President’s initiative to help men of color choose a road to productivity and success.
Tracy and Sybrina’s son was killed two years ago in an altercation with security guard George Zimmerman. A jury found Zimmerman not guilty of murder, which caused nationwide protests from many who felt that the ruling was unjust.

Not in their world. Your causing it.
BINGO!
I can’t understand why anyone is giving these Epic Fail parents the time of day, let alone a public forum as if they had something to contribute other than a bad example.
Just another day in useless, dying America.
Thanks for the link.
“... many who felt that the ruling was unjust...”
Many, many more felt it WAS just......
The phrase “my brother’s keeper”, is racist.
obamA is associating blacks and other minorities with a guy who killed his brother, then tried to cover up his crime.
Our racist president giving special favors for black youths. What about disadvantaged white youths?
No such thing. Ever heard of white privilege? White folks automatically have it a birth. I just checked to make sure my WPL was in order. (White Privilege License) Line cuts included. Fine dining discounts, lower taxes, free movie passes, etc. ;>}
And....the martyrdom of the black criminal thug, Travon Martin, marches on. There will be a US postal stamp in his honor very soon.
So is this an admission that Saint Trayvon was indeed a seriously wayward black youth with poor parenting, or do they simply not comprehend the irony?
There is nothing funny to me about Trayvon’s death or his altercation with Zimmerman, but how Trayvon was raised had almost all to do with his short lived life IMO.
His parents maybe need to host a “Don't Parent Like Us” campaign with Obama. More like what is needed IMO.
I am now watching Gigi and listening to the beautifully crafted lyrics and comparing them to Bouncy’s lyric of “he Monica Lewinskied on my gown”. Good luck with that “Brothers Keeper” stuff. You'll need it.

It's most often used as a sentimental expression of concern or self sacrifice. What it actually is, is a murderer's snide response to a direct question from the God of the universe. There is nothing good about it.
Yes, exactly. It’s an implicit admission that Martin made bad choices (like skulking around neighborhoods after dark on rainy nights) that led to him getting killed.
The other irony here is that this is the kind of program Zimmerman was involved with, as a mentor, before the shooting.
I was kinda curious about that lyric. Shouldn’t it have been “bill clinton’d on my gown”? Maybe I’m just confused. Or maybe I’m not.
Happy Birthday Chelsea in memory of your alleged rapist dad.
