MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – A South Florida university awarded an honorary degree to Trayvon Martin, Saturday.

Martin’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, took the stage at Florida Memorial University’s commencement in Miami Gardens to receive a posthumous bachelor’s degree in aeronautical science on their son’s behalf.

Fulton and Martin said the ceremony was bittersweet, and now they’re passing on an inspirational message to Trayvon’s fellow graduates.

Maybe he can get a posthumous job in aerospace. Perhaps become a posthumous astronaut. Perchance he can work with white hispanic astronauts and try to crack their spacesuit helmeted heads open...posthumously.

"...to his fellow graduates ???" Uhhh...he's dead and did not "graduate" from anything. He was a thug and a cretin. If he had lived, I doubt if he'd even been civilized enough such that he would be a janitor at the school.

Why not in Biological Engineering for determining the optimal combination of Sweet Ice Tea and skittles for best effects on the brain?

Where are Trayvon’s prison discharge papers? How about his probation orders? A more likely scenario.

I suppose they will now add Trayvon’s name to their list of “most distinguished alumni.”

What a travesty of education and ethics.

Next they need to lobby the Nobel Prize committee to break with precedent to award Trayvon a posthumous Nobel Prize.... perhaps in chemistry, since he was dedicated to concocting chemical highs.

“aeronautical science”

perfect fake degree for the fake hero since rocket scientists just blow shit up until something flies, and no doubt fake aeronautical “scientist” Martin would have never gotten anything to fly ... just blowing shit up.

“Flying High (In the Friendly Sky)” is based around the concept of Marvin Gaye using heroin as a getting drug. “Flying high” refers to the high effect one gets when taking heroin, as Marvin doesn’t actually fly.

Flying high without ever leavin’ the ground

They must feel really, really proud of themselves.

Trayvon was always flyin’ high so an aeronautical engineering degree might be in order. But what about Michael Brown? Isn’t he entitled to one too by these pandering cowards frightened into giving a thug an honorary degree?

At least he won’t to any damage to the profession by holding the degree while on this side of the grass. Quotas would have got him into the school and into a high profile job. Thanks to our SJWs, Mr Martin might have served as the project officer for the Mars Space Station or the director of the Webb telescope launch.

Now that he has ‘earned’ a Baccalaureate, I would like see him to pursue his posthumous education with a Masters Degree in thuggin’ and a PHD in Stupidity!

He’s dead Jim.
Adding to the resume of a dead person is nothing more than a futile political statement.
Makes the people doing it look pretty simple too.
