So everyone with tats is a gang banging drug dealer? Tell that to my mother, father. Every last person in my family wears hoodies, too. I was even suspended in school. So that makes me gangsta, too, I suppose?
Trayvon had no police record. But Zimmerman was arrested 3 times- domestic violence, scuffling with police and actually assaulting a police officer. Each time, mysteriously having those arrests closed. His father is an ex judge. Coincidence?

The issue of Trayvon Martin and gang ties is significant for several reasons, not the least of which is that the blocks he was walking that night were under siege in the days prior by burglars. Were the burglars Trayvon and fellow gang members? Was the Skittles run cover for casing the houses?
Excerpted from WAGIST
The media narrative being sold is quite clear, Trayvon Martin is the innocent victim here and George Zimmerman is a horrible bigot who attacked the young man for doing nothing more than buying skittles while being black. Even Barack Obama seems to accept the fresh-faced innocence of Trayvon, stating, “If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon.” More on that later.
It’s becoming more and more clear however that the innocent appearance the mainstream media is so desperate to apply to Trayvon isn’t at all accurate. 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. Extended School Suspension
There has been a lot of analysis about the character of George Zimmerman in the media, and surprisingly little about Trayvon Martin.
For instance, a few days before he was killed, Trayvon was suspended from school for ten days.
Still, Trayvon had nonviolent behavioral issues in school, and on the day he was killed, he had been suspended for 10 days from Dr. Michael M. Krop Senior High School in North Miami-Dade. “He was not suspended for something dealing with violence or anything like that. It wasn’t a crime he committed, but he was in an unauthorized area [on school property],” Martin said, declining to offer more details. Before that, Trayvon attended Miami Carol City High School near his mother’s home in Miami Gardens.
There has been very little follow-up in investigating exactly why Trayvon was suspended for such a long period of time for what seems to be the relatively minor offense of “being in an unauthorized area.” In most schools, something like that would be a detention, or one-day, in school suspension at most. Not ten days.
Of course, this is why Trayvon was staying as his Father’s house, so far away from school. And it also explains why George Zimmerman, who by all accounts seemed to stay on top of everything that happened in his neighborhood, didn’t recognize him that evening, Trayvon didn’t really live there, and was only in town because of the suspension.
It seems we may not find out more anytime soon, as a lawyer representing Trayvon’s family has sealed his school records.
Multiple Tattoos
To learn more about Trayvon’s character, we have to look to his friends and family to offer clues. Unfortunately, it seems as if most people who knew him are intent on cleaning up his image, rather than discussing what Trayvon was really like.
Even though Trayvon was only 17, he already was sporting gold teeth, and several large tattoos. This one was on his wrist, apparently of his girlfriend’s mother’s name.

no defense,none!
If Trayvon was a criminal, then he would eventually have had to take his chances with the police and the justice system. Zimmerman represented neither.
Sorry, Zimmerman is a bad egg. I hope he rots in prison.
And your last couple of sentences are a load of racist, bigoted crap. There's plenty of crime being committed by all kinds of people. We already know that law enforcement targets young black males unjustly. There's no need for private citizens with grudges to do the same.
But I see the Republican Christian Conservatives uphold thier values of further victimizing a dead murdered black youth by a proven racist violent thug.
for a violent racist thug who just said his head had been hammered into a sidewalk and a broken nose he only proves more how innocent this murdered youth was. Not even a drop of blood on his shirt and no marks any where on him. He even had to ASK the officer to look at the back of his head trying to prove his lies. Zimmerman should be brought to trial.
I'm undecided because the fact is that I don't know.
I don't know him or what he's done.
I know he has never been jailed or in juvenile hall.
I know that having a few tattoos doesn't speak to anyones character and neither does having gold teeth.
Succumbing to emulating the hip-hop community does not make someone a bad person, nor does it make them a drug dealer or gang banger.
I've said it before and I'll say it again; I see no tear drops, I see no flag, I see no party dots, and I see no gang signs. People need to learn what gangsters actually act like and look like before they go making dumb accusations. A tattoo of your grandmothers name, with prayer hands in a rosary is AAANYTHING but gangster. Give me a break.
I don't care about this guys rep, a bag with some THC residue or the fact he was on suspension when killed. I also don't care about George's crazy past and the few scuffles he's had with other people. Nor do I car about the frequency he has called 911.
All that matters is what actually happened that night. That's IT, nothing less and nothing more. I'll wait and see what new information comes to light before jumping to any conclusions about either of these men. I will not succumb to the media's bi...

I will not succumb to the media's biased BS calling Trayvon a kid and posting 5-7 year old pictures of him. He was a 6 foot 3 football playing MAN. And Zimmerman was a short, stocky, out of shape man.
No 17 year old kid is a perfect angel no matter what color they are. I certainly was not. ;)
Even if he was a 'gangbanger' it is irrelevent.
Zimmerman did not have the right to stalk him start a confrontation then shoot him claiming self-defense. This type of attitude opens the door to vigillante justice and possibly even the perfect murder scenario. Follow someone till they confront you about it then kill them in 'self-defense'.
