The Daily Caller obtains Trayvon Martin’s tweets
Daily Caller ^ | 6:25 PM 03/26/2012 | David Martosko

The Daily Caller has obtained a compilation of the late Trayvon Martin’s tweets.

The social media scan, executed on PeopleBrowsr and supplied to TheDC by the individual who performed the search, contains tweets from the last month of Martin’s life, dating to the beginning of 2012.

Martin tweeted under the handle “NO_LIMIT_NIGGA,” an account that was closed shortly after his death.

The image attached to the Twitter account when Martin died matches one that has been widely distributed. That photograph of Martin depicts him smiling, gold-toothed, into a camera in front of an electronic dartboard.

TheDC is publishing these tweets in exactly the form it received them, with the sole exception of partially redacting Martin’s telephone number in one tweet.

Okay. Thanks for the reminder. I’ll watch out for that in the future.

Lest anyone think this particular portrayal of this "kid" is out of the ordinary, I recall the case of 16 year old Julius Johnson from Reading, PA, who was shot and killed on January 25, 2012 as he and two of friends attempted to mug a 65 year old man on a bike path, knocking him off of his bike and pinning him against a fence. This was the second mugging of the day by these three, as they had mugged two people earlier in the day in another part of town.

From the Reading Eagle:
The three were playing video games at Johnson's residence in the 200 block of Gerry Street when juvenile probation officers went there Wednesday morning to check on Johnson after his mother reported that her son was not in school.

Johnson was on probation for aggravated assault. He was participating in a weekend program at the county youth center that has juvenile offenders go into the outdoors and perform community service.

The probation officers ordered Johnson to remain home on electronic monitoring and told the other two, who had no juvenile records, to leave.

The trio left immediately after the officers left and assaulted and robbed two men in West Reading before heading to the trail, where they assaulted the 65-year-old.

Adams ruled the shooting justified because the man could not flee and thought his life was in danger.

Here are the pictures that the public saw on this predatory juvenile

And here is the way they described him:

Julius Johnson, 16 years old
September 19, 1995 ~ January 25, 2012
Thun Trail, Cumru Township shooting
Julius was a student at Reading Senior High School; where he was an active member of the Wrestling team.
He had a love for fashionable clothing and shoes; he had a style that was all his own.
He enjoyed listening to his favorite rap artists; playing Play Station or hanging out with his friends, and having A Good Time and while being happy with his Family.
He will be remembered for his picture-perfect smile; his vibrant personality, his swagg; the enjoyment he received in experiences offered when he attended the Holy Trinity Church, the Olivets Boys Club and the community Y.E.S program.

Not a word about his propensity for assaulting people and robbing them. I see a LOT of similarities here with the way Trayvon Martin is being portrayed by the media and the race hustlers. It is unfortunate that young people lose their lives, but when they buy into the thug culture, a young death is at the end of many of those paths. In the Julius Johnson case and the Trayvon Martin case, it happened before they could kill someone else.

At least that will be true in the Trayvon Martin case if no deaths resulting from violent protests in the aftermath, and that remains to be seen.

It seems like Trayvon Martin and his friends were part of the “War on Women” with the language that they used to describe females...

He already gave a statement nitwit. 100% in agreement with all other witnesses, and the 911 recording. Dumbass.

Wow! Aren't we the friendly sort.

I'm not sure what it is that I said that upsets you. I know we heard from the shooter, and as long as he says the same things under oath if called to do so, that will be good enough for me. I said I thought what the witness(es) had to say was more important than some juvenile twitter postings. What is it that you disagree with? Do you think the twitter stuff is more important that what the witness(es) has to say? Do you think that every criminal's first statement to police has the same weight as testimony given in open court? What? Do you think just because YOU have heard enough no Grand Jury should look into the matter?

You see, I'm kind of a guy who believes in our long established rules of law, which I know are troubling to some.

Thank you for the ping. I’m not sure the truth is going to make a difference in this case—up until I watched some of the news, I thought it would, but then I saw the network floozies (via our local 10 o’clock news) still repeating the same old lies, and indeed, using the word “murder” in reference to Zimmerman. This was an NBC affiliate, but I imagine it’s representative.

A grand jury is supposed to be convened on 10 April and they could easily subpoena those text messages very easily from the cell phone service provider.

Seems like Obama’s son is a misogynistic foul mouthed wildly fornicating drug dealer. Who would have guessed!

Looks like President Obama, once again, acted stupidly.

Now I am confused.

How was Trayvon using Obama’s Tweet handle?

Why don’t you ramble on some more?

“Rule of Law” is being followed.

“Do I think every criminal’s first statement ...” - um - 1.) Way to make my position for me! and 2.) - um - what “criminal”? “innocent until proven guilty” wasn’t covered in your “long established rules of law”?

If there is a “day in court” - rule of law will not be followed. Double dumbass.

I don't really have to. Rush essentially said everything about this that I've said here, yesterday on his program. Everything.

So I guess Rush is a double dumbass too, huh genius?

So did he really tweet “f*** a b****, any b****. who you want?”

Will Trayvon’s mom say we’re disrespecting him by directly quoting his tweets?

Hey, look at it this way: he did it without using a teleprompter!

Cheers!

Freeper PhilDragoo posted a photo of Trayvon from facebook. It has since been removed.
