Re: Trayvon Martin - burglary tools and illegal drugs possession...
That was more deliberate false information to support the claim he was a perfect behavior African-American child walking home from a candy store.
That is one of way seeing it I s'pose.
Trayvon Martin was on suspension for school for possessing burglary tools and a bagging with traces of marijuana. The latter suggests drug dealing.
No, it doesn't. AFAICT, to suggest dealing, you need a sufficient quantity of w/e drug beyond personal use, and/or to have multiple containers of teh same drugs [portioned for distribution]. An empty baggie does NOT suggest dealing. At least not to my common sense.
Maybe someone experienced in that world can shed light on how an empty baggie means that you're dealing. But I don't see it.
But don't let my failure to suspend disbelief ruining your story-telling party here.
In his 911 call, Zimmerman told the police that Martin was acting suspiciously, then that Martin was approaching him - Martin putting his hand in his waistband and then in his pocket. He told the police it was clear by Martin's behavior that he was on drugs.
I don't hear the bit about M's pocket.
What's the time stamp on that?

However, when Martin saw Zimmerman on the phone, he turned and ran. Why?
Because Z had been acting suspiciously and M feared for his safety. Just guessing here.
It is not an unreasonable conclusion he ran because he had dope on him.
It's not supported by any evidence.
Merely not being unreasonable isn't very much to go on. It's actually a very weak reason to believe something.
But it's a necessary building block for your imaginary scenario, so let's run with this unsupported premise for a moment.
No one carries dope unless they use dope. Since there is no way to smoke dope in school due to odors, it likely the reason the bag only had residuals was because he was dealing it in school. May have been dealing the night Zimmerman saw him and/or out of the house getting stoned. A person who as illegal drugs uses illegal drugs.
He might have been a myriad of things. But given the lack of evidence of M doing those myriad of other things, we may be better served by hewing a little closer to the facts. ymmv
Likely dope dealing at school and in the neighborhood?
LOL ****ing L again.
Where did we go from it's a possibility to it's a probability? It strains the bounds of common sense and credulity for it to be probable that a kid is in a strange neighborhood, in a gated community no less, standing around outside selling dope.
Maybe someone who knows more about that sort of black market activity can tell us with more authority.
Hiding something in his pocket seeing someone calling the police and running?
HOw was it that M came to know that Z was on the phone to the PD?
Is this information publicly available? Or does it reside solely in your imagination?
It appears highly possible that Martin was a doped-up burglar and drug dealer casing and working the neigbhorhood when Zimmerman gave a damn and called 911 for police to come check him out.
Quite a number of things are possible. But there's not really enough evidence for us to say that you interesting tale is probable.
There's quite a bit of un-supported and un-adulterated speculation in your tale.
Zimmerman "following" him appears to see where he went or where he dumped drugs he was likely carrying (and using and maybe dealing) for when police arrived.
Total fabrication on your part, fyi. I am not sure if that needs to be pointed out or not.
Have you thought about going into creative writing? You seem to have a knack for inventing tales.
