Let’s just ignore the reported fact that Trayvon does not have any sort of criminal record, violent or nonviolent, so he’s unlikely a candidate to commit random acts of violence, k?

The reason he is at the gated community is because he was suspended from school for 5 days. That's indicative of serious misbehavior. Minor misbehavior is "rewarded" with detention.

Sorry, I’ve read enough zero tolerance stories to know they suspend kids for stuff that used to be ignored.

Unless somebody can show that whatever he was suspended for was really serious and chronic, I have no choice but to find Trayvon Martin guilty of being a normal teenager.

Would you say a three day suspension from high school is indicative of serious misbehavior?
