Among those present were rapper Nipsy Hustle [Hussle]
He is also a member of the local Rollin 60's Neighborhood Crips gang

Gang activities include murder, bank robberies, rape, drug trafficking, carjacking, assault and vandalism/graffiti.

“Maybe if they had paid half as much attention to him when he was alive as they do after he died he wouldn’t have turned out to be such a waste. “

Both his parents are sociopaths to one degree or another. The apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

Yes, in the exact same way that Horst Wessel became one of the most important figures of modern National Socialism in the early 30's.

Make any myth you want - if it furthers the expansion of the welfare state, the MSM will be right there to help you sell it.

Trayvon probably did not know who was the first black congressman or what MLK did.

This lo fo voter new age civil rights is a complete joke.

Trayvon Martin is the Horst Wessel of our times. He is a thug wanna be deified into a cultural icon.

After a brief struggle, Zimmerman shot and killed Martin...

Gee, Nathan, didn't you leave out one important fact?

After a brief struggle, Zimmerman shot and killed Martin,

What transparent propaganda.

"After a brief struggle?"

Don't they really mean "After Trayvon Martin assaulted Zimmerman, knocked Zimmerman to the ground, pounded Zimmerman's head into the pavement several times, and told him 'You're gonna die', Zimmerman shot and killed Martin?"

Don't you remember all the squealing about "All we want is for Zimmerman to face trial?"

Well, Zimmerman did face trial, and was justly acquitted by the jury.

So then the left-wing victimization crowd immediately moves the target by attacking the validity of a trial in which the prosecution bent over backwards to railroad Zimmerman,still failed utterly, and made themselves look like witch-hunting zealots along the way.

The notion that Trayvon Martin's civil rights were in any way violated is abject and hysterical propaganda. Sharpton, Jackson, and their ilk are grasping at straws, and their attempt to create a martyr out of a young thug who made a foolish mistake is truly pathetic.

If this is the kind of "hero" the modern black civil rights movement is going to mythologize, then it's no wonder that the vast majority of the country is beginning to see that community as disingenuous and totally detached from reality.

My God! The delusional ignorance on display by these race-baiters is just breathtaking! Clinging to such phony martyrs can do nothing but undermine the black civil rights movement.

“but the slain Florida teenager is slowly becoming one of the most important figures in the modern civil rights era.”

Which speaks to how far awry the movement has gone.

Martin is not Emmit Till, Medgar Evers or Rosa Parks. George Zimmerman is not Bull Connor.

The “slain teenager” isn’t becoming anything except worm meat. He’s where he belongs right now.

Yet another example of race relations being set back 50 years by Obama.

The deliberations by a mixed racial jury got it right Zimmerman did nothing racist, and Martin was the aggressor and Zimmerman was justified in the use of deadly force to protect himself from a much larger physically fit Martin.

That Treyvon is Tres dead is what happens when the good guy
Zimmerman has a gun and is forced to use it.

Blacks here would be wise to back off or all blacks will be viewed as vile racists, not like the sensible jury who decided this case on the facts.

Martin was a thug with a record, even though he was young he was old enough to behave better.

Making him a civil rights icon spits all over those who worked for true civil rights and equality - too bad the liberals decided that true equality wasn’t profitable to “those who rule”.
