And here’s the story from three days ago from www.wagist.com that dug into Trayvon’s thuggisth background. Lots of mainstream reporters took their lead from this reporting:http://www.wagist.com/2012/dan-linehan/was-trayvon-martin-a-drug-dealer

Now the reporter’s boss on this piece is half apologizing for the reporter’s stellar reporting, where the mainstream media never bothered to tread. I recommend giving credit to the reporter, Dan Linehan. http://www.wagist.com/2012/dan-linehan/was-trayvon-martin-a-drug-dealer

This skittles thing has been rolling around in the back of my mind since the beginning. It just does not sound like something a 17 year old would make a special trip to the store for. Just not cool.
So low and behold it happens to be a drug reference.

I think his GF said he went out for skittles and tea (another obvious drug reference) but my recollection is not as good as it once was. It is not referenced in the police report so how do folks know had the candy?

Interesting ...

There's a photo on your link that states it was taken from Tray’s MySpace page. It shows a fellow with a large tattoo that takes up most of his arm.

If you click on the link there and go to the actual "TRAY" MySpace page, the fellow describes himself as 19-years old and 5 feet 8 inches. He last logged in on 3/27/12 - yesterday.

These are photos of the Tray Martin who was shot by George Zimmerman. They were taken on February 17th, nine days before his death. He has no tattoos.

No wonder Dan Linehan writes, "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." Dan published photos ~ and tweets ~ of the wrong fellow!

I'm sure no one's interested in this and I'll be called a few more names, but at least I tried.
