I am tired of hearing about this situation. If he wasnt doing anything wrong he wouldnt of been shot. Neighborhood watch people dont just go around shooting people. I look at it this way its just one more future thug off of the streets and no i am not racist, i am a african-American.

i haven't heard anything re:trayvons right to stand his ground, he was being followed at night by an armed man rhat had brrn told bypolice to NOT follow him, trayvon was doing nothing illegal,zimmerman was not obeying police directions, he was wrong and that is murder, ay very least manslaughter

And I want to add that "No, sometime the system doesn't work right. And sometimes it absolutely looks like it is discriminating, biased, and predjudicial. Especially the way the News reports it. But still, in the 21 century, for someone to scream 'ALL whites are racists' when something like this happens, is just plain wrong. RESPECT IS SOMETHING YOU EARN AS A PERSON AND A PEOPLE. BUT to almost start riots and spread MORE hatred just erodes away at any respect that generations of good people have worked hard for and earned. In today's society every parent out there needs to get a hold of their OFFSPRING and keep them OFF THE STREET. ESPECIALLY IF THEY SEE SIGNS THEY ARE F*ING UP, If you really love them and want them to survive and succeed you 'sit' on them and guide them at home, or they WILL BE guided by whoever they meet in the street, that's a fact. And THAT to me, is a LIFETIME job and commitment, as a parent, and I can blame the world if my child gets killed out there, but it would be ALL my fault for not knowing where he's at. Get them off the streets, "out of site, out of mind" is dangerous, especially here in Jax when a there so many thugs roaming free that are up to no good. Instead of using Travon's memory as a positive example to "listen and do what your parents say and stay off the streets", it was used to almost set of a full scale hate-riot that only a few hateful misinformed people backed. No one wins in this, no one.

" Travon's family believed Zimmerman is a trigger happy cop wanna-be who zero'd in on their kid because he was black". HOW SORRY IS THAT?. It has to be tough to bury your own child/man has they did, but they failed him. This family should be charged for trying to incite riots and putting an illegal 'wanted' poster out with a PRICE on someones head. Since they don't want to accept ANY responsibility for his demise/actions that night at all.
