Trayvon Martin

Trayvon Martin was a nice teenager who was brutally murdered by the racist, George Zimmerman. Zimmerman was a self proclaimed community watchman. Martin was a good student who got A's and B's on his report card. On the nught of February 26, Martin was walking home from the conveniece store. He had just bought a sweet tea and some skittles.

 Martin was walking when Zimmerman started to follow him in his car. Zimmerman then proceded to call 911 and report Martin's suspiciuous behavior. As he called 911, Zimmerman continued to follow Martin in a car closely behind. The 911 responder then proceeded to tell Zimmerman not to follow. If you listen closely to the 911 tape provided below, you can hear what happened at the time. However, if you listen extremely close around 2:20, you will hear what seems to be a racial slur. The police officer even tol Zimmerman not to follow, and he did. Some people think that it was Zimmerman who was intoxicated or on drugs, not Martin.


After Martin had been shot, the police showed up. Zimmerman claimed self-defense, and was let go immediately. End of story. Nothing happened. Police protocol was not followed in this situation. The police did not perform an intoxication test on Zimmerman. Now Martin's family is calling for a national case because of the bad job done by the police in Florida. I believe that this case will reach a national level and sonn the murderer will be brought to justice.
