Miami Gardens teenager Trayvon Martin was suspended from school because he was caught with an empty plastic bag with traces of marijuana in it, the boy’s family attorney has confirmed.
Trayvon was killed while serving out the suspension in Sanford Florida, where his father’s girlfriend lives. A community watch volunteer who thought he looked drugged out and suspicious called police and later wound up in a fight with him.
The two scuffled and volunteer George Zimmerman shot Trayvon, killing him. He has not been charged.
Tens of thousands of people are expected to converge on Sanford on Monday for an afternoon rally to protest the killing, which occurred one month ago today.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson, Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis, the Rev. Al Sharpton and comedian Sinbad are expected to speak at a 5 p.m. special City Commission meeting.
Several busloads of protesters left Miami early Monday to participate.

For Zimmerman this was not unusual to ask people why they were in the neighborhood....for that matter inquiry is not confronting someone in the way you’re presenting it.
I confront rather boldly my neighborhood teens when they get fisty... without hesitation. I ceertainly would have no problem with a Commander of a Watchgroup doing so...especially since many robberies were occurring in the neighborhood....and least you forget he phoned it in right away.
You forgot to shut the fridge.
Probably not the gun.
Zimmerman strikes me as a guy heavily dependent on needing the approval of others. He was probably hoping to hear the words, “good job” by the police.
Well what did you expect? There will be no constraints on him then and we'll be all in a world of hurt all around if he gets elected.....we've seen nothing yet.
I have to admit the more he says he's going to do, and I never thought I could say this, if Romney does per chance get the primary I'm considering would Romney disarm our country? You see this changes the equation of weighing the Romney vote if he gets it.
Very serious business Obama is planning....it's one thing to destroy from within..that we can fight...it's another for our President to disarm our nation from without to satisfy his personal political gain on the world stage.
The guy has got to go...no doubt about it..and frankly the same for his wife.
You remarks are both useless and without humor.
ROYFLOL
What a photo shot! OLOLOLOLOLOL
Since you're going to have a laugh track, that question should be asked of the NFL linebacker (Ray Lewis).
This boy was killed a month ago...and yet it just now hits the airwaves like a terrible racial incident that occured yesterday.
Did they take the time to aling the story? Who knows. We do know this, they are slanting the coverage.
From not talking abput or presenting the eyewitness accounts of the fight:
Eyewitness: Trayvon attacked Zimmerman
To even how they portray the people involved.
Trayvon and Zimmer man as shown all over the nation by the MSM:
Trayvon and Zimmerman as they actually look recently:
Yes, there certainly was.
His name is George Zimmerman.
Dave’s not here, man...he’s on FreeRepublic.
(Sorry, couldn’t resist.)
But how far was it to the closest 7-11? Google says 2 miles....that’s quite a hike in the rain if so....
Timing will come into play when this goes to trial...and with all the outsry going on I don’t see how they won’t move this that direction.....it’ll be a good diversion for Obamas failures and keep the public engaged from what he’s doing.
As he once said...”Americans” don’t much care what Washington does....they ARE busy watching football..some more than others.
What if he needed more than candy? Just saying.
Zimmerman is a participant, not an eyewitness.
if Hispanics show up to defend Zimmerman it will be Democrat Race Riot Armageddon
if Hispanics show up to defend Zimmerman it will be Democrat Race Riot Armageddon
Racism, Hatred is alive and well in the Barack Hussein Obama heart, soul and his Obamabots!!! Sad for the Black American Community, Sad for the victims, Sad for our great county. Obama should be impeached, Holder fired, and the Democrat Party thrown out of office for inciting riots, failing to let our justice system work and treason against the state!!! Folks, get with it, Obama is the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler and his racist thugs that murdered ten million innocent people (Six million Jews & four million others). Obama is truly an enemy of the the state, and he is trying his utmost to destroy the USA which he hates with a passion!!! Wake up, Americans, “all”!!!
