She left the kid behind for the Dad to raise, now she’s the “mother of the year” (with a great bank roll) pushing to get a law changed that she suddenly doesn’t like?

If she had been a “real mother” perhaps the kid would still be alive today.

Wasn’t she the one who left the kid behind for the Dad to raise? Now she’s “Mother of the Year” trying to get a law passed she doesn’t agree with?

Had she been a “real mother” and there to help raise that boy, perhaps the kid might still be alive today.

All of which proves that smoking weed made Martin delusional and paranoid or Rachel a perjurer.

She kinda reminds of cindy sheehan after she lost her son, overstaying her 15 minutes and not making a lick of sense. Someone needs to sedate Ms. Fulton.

$ybrina Fulton has become a media star, its no longer about Trayvon, its about $abrina carrying on with Jessie and Al, and a constant flow of $$$$. Her Trayvon has given her more than she ever dreamed of by his death, far more than he would have ever given had he lived. Its all B$, she knows it, but the $$$$$ keeps coming in. I wonder if she removed Trayvon’s teeth before they buried him? All this B$, going on and no one seems to invoke the name of Antonio West at the rally? If she don’t approve of the FL STG law, move to another state. Her son would be alive today, had “He” made the 911 call.

"We have to change the law so that this doesn't happen to someone else's child," Fulton told reporters .

Raise your kids not to be thugs, Sybrina (sic) and you won't have to worry about them getting shot while in the act of committing aggravated assault.

Jesse Jackson appeared as a spectator and later told reporters that the "stand your ground" law reminded him of past laws that prevented blacks from sitting at the front of buses.

Is Je$$e Jack$on admitting that black culture views rape, robbery, assault, and murder as "rights" rather than crimes?

She’s not just a grieving mother,

I don't think she's a grieving mother at all. She barely qualifies for the honor of being called a mother ... and she's lying about the thoroughly justified death of her biological spawn in order to enrich herself.

George Zimmerman “got away with murder” in the 2012 killing of her son largely because of Florida’s self-defense law, which generally removed a person’s duty to retreat if possible in the face of danger

HUH? Lady explain how Zimmerman was supposed to retreat with your son on top of him pounding his head into the ground? Sorry that you lost a son. But from everything that came out during the trial it sounds as if he was well on the way to being lost before he ever met up with Zimmerman.........

Let's look at this from a different perspective.

If SYG is considered by some (wackos) racism, then what is it that they really want?

Well they clearly don't want black youth shot, no matter what the black youth do. But what does “gang culture” say about this. In gang culture, found in many central cities, “disrespecting” someone is a good way to end up in a fight for your life. It is considered by some as justification for cold blooded murder. In such situations no “retreat” is required.

So the desire to do away with SYG laws is really a thinly veiled attempt to establish a double standard. Non-blacks need to retreat and go to heroic efforts before they can exercise self defense and then it had better be nonlethal self-defense. A fraction of the blacks on the other hand who have been raised and emulate gang culture are free to attack anyone for being “disrespected.”

That is the exact situation in the Martin/Zimmerman confrontation. Martin decided it was time to open a can of whoop ass on the “cracker.” Martin was emulating gang culture and wearing gang culture clothes. The media and speakers of the black community are not in the least bit saying that there is anything wrong with gang culture or Martin going after Zimmerman. What they are saying is that Zimmerman was wrong in using deadly force against Martin.

Therefore, this IS all about racism, in that Jesse Jackson is correct, but not in the way he espouses it. It is certain blacks wanting to establish a racist society, where black youths can do just about anything they want and not suffer lethal consequences.

what she really wants is the repeal of civil immunity.

Crump is behind this lawyer wish list.

She is also making some $ from this. She needs to keep her name in the news, so she is invited to make appearances.

Anybody found out how much the Martins have gained from their son’s death?

The Trayvon Martin supporters view the law that allows white people to protect themselves from being molested by black men as racist. As well they should considering that 75% of all violent crime is committed by black men according to the New York City police commissioner.

Just think about that a little and realize that blacks make up less than 15% of the population but commit 75% of the violent crimes. It is no wonder that the race baiters see the stand your ground laws and the self defense laws as racist. It denies black people a way of life.

I support SYG and SD laws and consider that Zimmerman did his community a favor by ridding it of a violent predator.

We need to wake up to the truth. The truth is that way too many of our black citizens are not taught how to live, or they are taught but do not learn.

In a country there is no need for different cultures. We used to be called the melting pot but today multiculturalism is celebrated, poppycock, it should be illegal.

Violent criminals should have no right to mix in our society, they need to all be either dead or locked up.

Well IIRC it’s already 7 figures from the HOA.

What ever happened to Cindy Sheehan?

Not sure, I think she disappeared from the headlines after she said something bad about 0bama.
It was okay while she was bashing Bush but when she turned her sights and pointed out that 0bama was also sending young men to war, then the medias love affair with her ended.

Last year, our son Trayvon Martin was stalked, chased down and killed by George Zimmerman, and Zimmerman faced no punishment whatsoever.

Wow, three lies in the opening sentence. TMTm was not stalked, he was not chased down, and Zimmerman most certainly faced punishment in this show trial.

We are shocked and heartbroken by the jury’s decision to allow our son’s killer to go free.

We are hardly shocked that you and your ex put your own personal needs over those of your son. We are hardly shocked that the likes of Jackson and Sharpton wink and nod at the thug culture that sucked in Trayvon. And we are not surprised in the least bit at the deceptive St. Skittles narrative created by the media.

But, then again, those who view reality objectively seldom get shocked by such.

This absentee-mother wants to change the ‘SYG’ law and add ‘retreat’ to the mix? How could Mr. George Zimmerman have ‘retreated’ while his head was being bashed into concrete?

These race hustlers do want to admit that GZ was retreating back to his car to wait for the police, when he was confronted by TM. As he was sucker-punched, he had no chance to retreat, only employ self defense.
