Well the reality is that the Chief of police described him that way in an official statement.Riiiight ... you don't ignore reality ... sure, uh-huh ...
You claimed it was a 911 dispatcher, but it wasn't, it was only a "call taker"." ~ excon
That is official and that is reality.
And whether you like it or not, trumps anything you have thus far provided.
How do you know he wanted to be in a gang and wanted to be thug or some kind of criminal? No teens are prefect. I smoked pot when I was younger. I had pink highlights in my hair, cut my own hair, and dressed differently too... a lot of my friends even had facial piercings. Trayvon had ambitions to go to college. I really don't see him much differently than any of my friends in my high school years. We all dressed a little motley/thuggish and nearly all of us tried pot at least once. One of my friends is in law school now, and she was also kicked out of college for drug use.
I honestly believed and I still do believe that teenagers that dress a little differently and listen to different music, automatically get singled out for their appearance. I don't judge people entirely based on their appearance as a result. I can't tell how many times my principle made me go through my locker and accused me of being on drugs, because I was late to school. I wasn't a pot head. I offered up a urine test right there, and I knew it would be clean. He even claimed to smell pot on me, which was BS... my mom drove us to school and we were late because of a car accident. My mom doesn't smoke pot.
I was wrongly judged and treated like I was a criminal many times because of my appearance.
Nor do think TCH is a dangerous drug or that it makes somebody a bad person for smoking it. It should be legal.
I see Trayvon as a normal high school kid. I don't see him as a future gangster or criminal.
Meanwhile back in Gotham ...
Of course you see a normal high school kid.
Yet those who didn't grow up on the fringe of society and didn't do drugs see it much differently.
That isn't what most posters have said.I love how you guys yell & moan about Zimmerman's past being irrelevent to the case.
What has been said, is that what you, in your biased hatred, make of his past, doesn't matter.
What you have made it out to be, is irrelevant.
Because everybody else sees it for what the incidents are.
Wrong.nope, and neither has Trayvon Martin. At least as far as our justice system goes.
Wrong.and if Martin saw that gun, then he was totally justified in what he did.
