Above is the iconic picture we’ve been become accustomed to seeing everywhere in the media, used to represent the recent Trayvon Martin shooting in Sanford, Florida. From everything the public has been told, Trayvon Martin was a fresh-faced, innocent looking teenager and the visage of the man who shot him, George Zimmerman, is right out of a booking photo.
The media narrative being sold is quite clear, Trayvon Martin is the innocent victim here and George Zimmerman is a horrible bigot who attacked the young man for doing nothing more than buying skittles while being black. Even Barack Obama seems to accept the fresh-faced innocence of Trayvon, stating, “If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon.” More on that later.
It’s becoming more and more clear however that the innocent appearance the mainstream media is so desperate to apply to Trayvon isn’t at all accurate. The picture we’re used to seeing to represent Trayvon Martin appears to be a far cry from how he actually looked once he was a few years older.

Sounds like he sold weed. And sounds like he did something PRET-Ty bad at school to get suspended for 10 days. And it sounds like he was assaulting Zimmerman very badly. Badly enough to use self defense.
I don’t know what to make of the content of the article at this time, but I want to point out something regarding the pictures contained therein.
Notice the picture of Trayvon as a younger boy in the red shirt. Notice the line under his right eye on his right cheek. It is a faint, lighter colored line or mark that may be a scar or something along those lines.
Now notice the picture of Trayvon with gold teeth. Note that the exact same mark appears under his right eye on his right cheek.
That is him.
And now I am going to say this.
Those of you who may still have the scrubbed pic of “Trayvon all grown up”, look at his right cheek under his right eye and tell me what you see there...
Is that the same mark still visible even though his head is tilted back? I don’t know. Quite frankly, I’m afraid to answer my own question.
You’re saying the photos in the story for this thread aren’t legit?
Did you visit the site?
No idea. More than that, I don’t that we have any idea of who to believe.
Yes, the race baiters have ahold of it now. They aren’t letting go either. The Jews of Crown Heights know well what happens to ginned up crowds. The city of Los Angeles experience intense race riots after Rodney King.
It is madness spilling forth, and there isn’t much you or I can do about it.
I am starting to wonder if Trayvon did pop positive for drugs and that is why Jesse Jackson was making such a fuss about it.

“We know right now that the child who was killed was drug tested and the killer was not, so we are humiliated by that.”

Thing is, I think a postmortem toxicology tests pretty standard. A more broad one is done for cases like Breitbart but a basic one in cases like gunshot yada.
Everything is speculation. Why didn't Mr. Zimmerman wait...etc.
We all have our 'theories'. Including myself.
Who said it was 3 am?
I think you better look at those photos a little closer with specific concentration on the mark on his right cheek under his right eye.
This is the neighborhood twitter account.

Neighborhood Watch had led to arrests just before the shooting.
Right now I’ve no idea which photos are legit and which aren’t. I saw one of the deleted threads but it’s hard to recall the photos.
Man bites dog.
Extremely rare for white to kill a black so it’ll get national news. Plays into the victim narrative Dems want to sell.
Politics. Motivate the base through hate.
Jewish/Latino Democrat becomes a redneck Tea Partier.
I did take a look. You’re right. Probably. I think the Admins have established which photos are of THIS Martin.
The 3 day rumor is not true.
I thought the “40” number was the number of times Zimmerman had called 911.
Good post. Many here have spread complete lies.
Right, Zimmerman made his first call to police at 7:11pm. Trayvon’s girlfriend called him at 7:12 and that call lasted 4 minutes. At 7:17 police were on the scene and Trayvon was dead (but police worked on him) then paramedics arrived and pronounced him dead at 7:30.
1917 is 7:17 pm, not 6:17 pm, which would be 1817.
Am I missing something?
One tweet made it sound like Trayvon hit the bus driver? *shrug* I don’t know...
