Image melding Trayvon Martin and Martin Luther King turns heads 13 hrs ago As reactions to George Zimmerman's not guilty verdict push the boundaries of reason at both ends of the spectrum, the newest addition to the fray is a photo illustration of Martin Luther King Jr. wearing Trayvon Martin's now-familiar hoodie. The image, which was tweeted by civil rights activist Van Jones, has sparked mixed reactions from all sides. The comparison of Martin's senseless death to the iconic civil rights leader's lifetime of work has been criticized as racist by some and forced confused supporters into an entirely separate debate: Is weaving Trayvon Martin's story with King's legacy suitable?

Civil rights activist? Is that what they're calling racists nowadays? How ironic.
not to mention making drugs out of Ice Tea an skittles an “da tussin”...
They have totally lost it if they think this is what King was about.
Hahahah......just when you think they couldn’t get any dumber . .
it was not a senseless death. gz saved himself from a punk who decided to attack him. the only thing senseless was trayvon’s attack.
trayvon is dead because of trayvon’s decision to escalate and ambush and attack another person. he didn’t stop fighting,didn’t disengage, he was going to murder gz.
blacks do not have the right to execute other people because they are pissed off they think they are not being “respected”.
king was an evil republican too.
I wonder how Kings family feels about this?
Civil rights activist? Is that what they’re calling racists nowadays? How ironic.
Van Jones is a Communist and everything they stand for, including racism, is evil.
Skittles Boy and MLK have two things in common
The name Martin
and dermal melanin.
Intellectually and philosophically they were polar opposites.
Betcha a dollar to a donut that this was created by some pot smoking, commie lib cracker.
yep !
he was not what the media portrays him to be and Martin Luther King, Jr. isn’t even his real name....
Look around at all the "civil rights activists". Jesse, Al, Farrakhan, straight down the list -- they're all racists. They seek to procure special rights for black people, and do nothing to protect the civil right of white people.
MLK, aka NO_LIMIT_DOCTOR
MLK Jr was no hood.
The BASTARD!! /s
Awww...
Don’t be distracted. The Federal government is going to use sleight of hand, to keep our attention focussed on riots and demonstrations like the ones in Oakland, San Francisco and elsewhere, to try and give Boehner and Cantor breathing room to force amnesty for illegal aliens down our throats. DON’T LET THEM DO THIS!!
