4 Reasons Why THC Should Not be a Factor in Trayvon Martin's Death (Unintentional Laff Riot)

Marijuana cannot be classified as a depressant because it increases the heart rate blood pressure and cardio pulmonary system.
I went to saint johns university in the ninety’s and they actually had a class called “drug use in society” as a part of the criminal justice program.
It was in this class that the professor explained that because of these unique characteristics marijuana has its own classification as a drug.

Now is that education money well spent or what! Heck, at least I remember at half a lifetime later .

[Carriage Hill]

THAT’s hilarious, a_d! LMAO! I wish we could post it here...

[UCANSEE2]

If they released Zimmerman’s toxicology report and it showed he had THC or booze in his system, this woman would be a stark-raving-mad lunatic saying he should be executed.

Likely true. But consider this.

If Martin had NO TRACE of any drugs in his system, then doesn't that just leave one conclusion?

He did it because he was a punk, a gangsta wannabe punk whose parents could no longer control him, and he thought he could get away with it. He was becoming a criminal in every way, and murder was just next.

[ichabod1]

That’s not true.

[Prov1322]

I guarantee you that if a trace of THC had been discovered in GZ this would be non-stop "news" on the Propaganda Networks.

My expectations for this situation are that 1) GZ becomes a very rich guy from multiple defamation suits, 2) Angela "Nifong" is prosecuted for malicious and false prosecution, 3) Crump is disbarred.

...but that's just me...

[Tax-chick]

It is excessively wordy - not great writing by any means - but still, there are subjects and verbs and all.

I agree with ichabod1, a teacher is a good bet.

[Tallguy]

Regardless of what they say, I know in my heart that wasn’t the person he was.

Unfortunately your "heart" isn't admissible in a court of law.

It doesn’t matter if Trayvon was smoking weed or smoking crack, the point is that he was in his own zone minding his own business while he was on his way to his place of residence. He never took it upon himself to go mess with George Zimmerman, Zimmerman took it upon himself to mess with Trayvon. Trayvon could have been blowed out of his mind, but he wasn’t bothering anyone. If he was high at the time he was killed, he was just going home to finish watching the game and enjoy his high. He didn’t want any trouble, but trouble sure sniffed him out like a rabid bloodhound.

According to GZ, Trayvon ran from him when he approached, and he lost sight of him. Trayvon then doubled back and ambushed Zimmerman as he was walking back to his truck. If Trayvon just wanted to go home, he'd have done it.

Once I was nearly run over by four pot-smokers in a car. They were trying to hit me.

Yeah. Usually it's not too hard to get out of the way of a car going 5 mph.

[Carriage Hill]

I’ll take your work for that one... sir.

[rarestia]

So what you’re saying is that the THC argument is a red herring? They want to keep this kid as spotless as possible, but the evidence is stacking up against it.

[wtc911]

How about you post proof that he did....bet you can’t.

[UCANSEE2]

he contends that "trayvon did nothing illegal that night"

Well... other than ASSAULT WITH INTENT TO KILL.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Disbarred?!

Ben Crump and Daryl Parks: The Reverend Al Sharpton calls them the ‘next Johnny Cochrans.’

Oh, and Angela is a Republican, believe it or not...

[Yardstick]

Exactly. Those Janjaweed militias in Africa are known to smoke MJ before doing some very unpeaceful things.

[Prov1322]

Trust me, I’m aware of both of those points, but I do believe in miracles!

[UCANSEE2]

If Trayvon just wanted to go home, he'd have done it.

Yeah... I guess Trayvon had just about had it with this 'security' guy. Putting a cramp on his 'night-job'. His Mom had kicked him out, and his old neighborhood was 'resource poor'.

His dad's girlfriend's neighborhood had some better pickings ... and yet 'the man' was trying to get in the way.

So... he 'punked' the cracker. And got shot during a struggle for the gun he tried to take from the 'security' guy.

My name is Ursula Brantley and I'm a 26-year-old single mother from Shreveport, LA. Ever since I was young, I've loved writing and the older I became the more I realized that I'm actually pretty good at it. I believe that every young person should be educated about the world around them. The world is moving and changing so fast. We're the future of this one world so we must be on top of our game, but of course, with our own twist. We're such a diverse generation and we should use our diversity to our advantage and change the world.

Black skank who wishes she could have Trayvon's baby!

Black skank who wishes she could have Trayvon's baby!

Unless there's two Ursula Brantleys in Shreveport, it looks like she's already had one baby, and it didn't survive being left alone with her "boyfriend". The Fail is strong in this one.
