1) How many crimes against property (including burglaries) were there in the year before Trayvon Martin moved in?

2)How many crimes against property (including burglaries) were there from the time Trayvon moved in until the day he died?

3) How many crimes against property (including burglaries) were there in the year after Trayvon Martin died?

It’d be ironic if after all Trayvon was the very guy the community hired Zimmerman to thwart.

Even asking these questions violates political correctness, and invites an ass whooping from those who feel dissed by such questions.

[BenLurkin]

I wonder.

[SpinnerWebb]

not invites... demands...

[BenLurkin]

I am asking about an individual- not making a race based judgment.

I am curious to know the facts.

8 before his death, I think zero since.

From what I understand, T. Martin was NOT a permanent resident there but living in his fathers place once his mother shuttled him back to the dad. I believe the mother HAD custody prior to that time.

Apparently the mother could no longer control or handle him (not unlike many people 17 year olds) and hopeing his father could give him some parental guidance.

Unfortunately for the entire family, good ole Trayvon was already lost to the “statistics” of one on a death or jail time path. We all know how that turned out.

I also asked this question recently.

For those blacks feelin' "froggy" and want to go after Zimmerman - He probably doesn't want to have to go through another trial, but since all the racist blacks from Hussein 0bama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, etc. on down have threatened his life, if he blew away a half dozen or so, there still would be no FAIR jury who wouldn't think it was self defense. He's got a "Get Out of Jail Free" card. Do you want to see if he will to use it?

Seems they’re feelin froggy and jumping on whomever is handy... and white, of course.

I'll betcha the State is hiding damning information about Trayvon in this regard, that we don't yet know about. Wasn't he on suspension from school the night this happened? Check! Didn't the school find him in possession of a bag with pot residue and a burglary tool in it.. What about the ladies jewelry he had? Check! Aren't skittles and Watermelon tea used as ingredients to make 'lean, sizzurp, or purple drank' combined with Robitussin DX? Check!

"The search of Trayvon Martin's backpack turned up at least 12 pcs of ladies jewelry, and a man's watch.."

There's a huge cover-up, to include orchestration and involvement at the DOJ to foment racial tension and ANTI-2ND AMENDMENT sentiment, but we are getting used to that here in America now.. An even seized by the DOJ, State Attorney of Florida, and the complicit media to further POLITICAL GOALS.

Actually, the house belonged to the girlfriend of Trayvon’s father. So, he was just bunking there as well. Incidentally, is it true that Trayvon’s dad had a gang tattoo covered before the trial began?

odd i thought of this as i was having coffee this morning. question 3.

Don't know about GZ's neighborhood, but I can tell you about mine. We had a nice intact black family move into our neighborhood about four years ago. The father was a former co-worker who wanted to get out of the 'hood. All the kids except one of the sons welcomed the change. The kid resented it for reasons I cannot even begin to understand.

It started out with little crap. People's lawn ornaments being swiped, moved and overturned. It escalated to mail going missing from the boxes, late night knocks on the door and fireworks being set off in the front yards. Then penny-ante burglaries and vandalism which escalated until the kid was caught and sent to juvenile detention for a long spell.

I feel sorry for the family because they were really trying to do the right thing by their kids. But now the neighborhood is quiet and pleasant again. The Dad considers the boy extremely lucky that he didn't get shot in one of the break-ins. Most of us around here are armed.

Family has told the kid he is not welcome home when he gets out of detention. He can bunk with one of the relatives in the old 'hood. They don't need the disruption in the lives of their younger children. Neither do the rest of us in the neighborhood.

Good thread. Thanks!

[The Sons of Liberty]

A very good argument for concealed carry.

[CivilWarBrewing]

Trayvon's father also called a white male witness a "mother fu*ker" right outside the courtroom. This witness testified to this fact before the court without the jury present..

I think the jury should have had some idea who Trayvon got his pleasant demeanor from. /s
