Trayvon Martin Update. Today a second rally, in as many days, was held for Trayvon Martin. Martin’s parents, in their first major appearance since the death of their son, were joined by civil rights leaders in demanding justice for their son, Trayvon.

Trayvon Martin Update – Second Rally in Sanford in Two Days

The city of Sanford, Florida, is a community of about 54,000, which has now become famous. Thousands of members of the media, as well as activists, protesters, and celebrities have descended on the city as demands for the arrest of George Zimmerman increase.

As Trayvon’s family, activists, celebrities and ordinary folks across the country call for Zimmerman’s arrest, the community has been overwhelmed with news trucks, reporters, high-profile civil rights leaders including Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, and thousands of protesters.

Although civil rights leader Al Sharpton is comparing Sanford to a modern-day Selma or Birmingham, most residents of Sanford do not share his assessment of race relations in the city.

In fact, Sharpton and other civil rights leaders involved in the Sanford protests, including the media, have drawn fire for their attempts to drag Americans back 50-years to the height of racial division and unrest in the nation.

News Contributor Juan Williams, formerly with NPR and now with Fox News, stated the following:

“Nobody says a word that over half of the murders in the United States are of black people and 90% of them are committed by other black people. What is this carnage in the black community, in Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, every day of the week? And nobody has a march for them… This is the civil rights challenge of this generation yet people want to replay what happened 50 years ago, Chris.“

Also that would explain the nose injury.

I am wondering how truthful the director is being.

If Martin was fighting, his knuckles would’ve been bruised - that was the point of what the funeral director said.

Whether or not he really was bruised from fighting - who knows at this point. There is too much misinformation from both sides floating around.


Including from the funeral director who is obviously not a coroner. Bruising takes time, the amount of time depending upon many factors. One does NOT bruise after death.

There could also be screaming/yelling/crying from others on the various calls, including children of the callers. Unless that possibility was ruled out or accounted for the voice analysis is flawed.
