“We’re going to all 21 states with stand your ground laws to make some change,” Fulton said to David Gregory, and while it won’t happen overnight, “we’re in it for the long haul. This is part of my life now.”
Fulton appeared on Meet the Press after NYPD Chief Ray Kelly defended “Stop-and-Frisk,” a practice that a federal judge determined violated the constitution and discriminated against minorities, who make up 90% of the stops.
“You have to give, not only civilians, but police officers, the right direction,” Fulton said. “You can’t give the authority, whether it’s a civilian or a police officer, the right to stop somebody just because of the color of their skin.”

When is she gonna STOP PROFILING WHITEY!
Z-man more than likely saved innocent lives down the line.
I note that there are now “Trayvon voters”. Hmmmmmmm.....
Ok, so in other words she is now protesting something that prevents black kids from being killed by gang members. Oh this woman is on a roll.
Sounds like she's smarter than Angela and Dead Trayvon, then.
St. Tray’s estate should be suing her and his baby daddy (yeah, the one with a one yr old from some other wench).
"I'm a media whore now."
and no, I don't give a tinker's damn
“We’re going to all 21 states with stand your ground laws to make some change,” Fulton said to David Gregory
So, the son attempts unsuccessfully to murder what he mistakenly thought would be a hated white victim, and then the mother admits to wanting to “make some change” or money from the son’s abortive crime.
show me da benjamins!!!

In 1...2...3...Or
never let a crisis go to waste.
Especially if it can turn a buck or two.
That locoweed Charlie Manson was predicting a race war 45 years ago....
So when random white people are assaulted “for trayvon” why doesn’t she condemn it?
I totally support her in this, it’s about damn time blacks stop profiling whites and automatically thinking they are homosexuals.
It is disgusting how blacks act.

She is going to milk this for a[[it is worth.
