Mixing apples with oranges again. Trayvon was responsible for his own demise, and deserved it. The others were victims of racist behavior.

I hate the way they are throwing the word “honor” around. “Honor” Trayvon by enacting gun control, etc. This young black man was 17 and was on a destructive path. At the time of his death he was suspended from school for having a bag of gold jewelry found in his locker, plus a tool used for breaking and entering, toxicology reports showed drugs in his system after his death, and his woeful ignorance as displayed on his emails. Maybe in his later years Trayvon could have turned it around, but that is a BIG maybe. His existence until his death involved no “honor”.
