• "Students wore hoodies that said, "I am Trayvon Martin" and lofted signs reading, "Don't shoot!" and "I could be next." We need someone to chant "I am George" and make signs saying "Should I let this guy kill me?" or "You could be next."

• Have to love a family who dosen't wait until the body is in the ground before trying to turn a profit off a bad situation.

• Looks like the new media is doing its job and bringing the Trayvon side of the story to the forefront. Photos and twitter accounts along with other evidence is proving what a lying propaganda machine the MSM is now.

  Unlike the Duke rape case, this is all the malfeasance of the MSM and the 0bama white house.

  This was just a dry run for the demokrat party, 0bama, and the MSM will manufacture in mid October. The enemies are right in front of our eyes.

  I have to say for a site called "I hate the media" there sure were a lot of posters giving the media their way. It was kind of a sad statement on what sway the media has with the bias that the government educational complex has installed.

• Actually when I saw this I thought to myself that is what Angelina did as well as Beyonce with their children. Too many disgusting people out there wanting to make a buck out of their names and Angelina especially did very many different ways to spell and say her children's names. There are porn stars that disgustingly use names of famous people and they would not be below using children's names. I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and state that there are going to be people using her son's image and name for their (financial and political) advantage and this could be a way to protect her son's face and name. If anything she is a wise person or she has wise advisors. I am not willing to necessarily attack her for that. She has so far seemed to me like a woman who wants justice for her son, it seems appropriate that she wants to protect his legacy as well. Considering that there is precedence in this type of move, I cannot be negative about this. Of course I do not know what is going on inside her mind, so it could be a bad thing, but like I said above there is precedence in this type of situation. Many people's have lost how their legacies are viewed by not protecting their image and names.

  • Never though of that, but you're 100% right. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt.

    • Hopefully this is her way to rein in the media as well, which could be a good thing.

  • Well put.

    • TU

• I hate to have to say this twice tonight .

  To quote the masters " You let no crisis go to waste ."

  I could hear it now , after Obama's war chest fund raising machine realized that they already had the hoodie idea , decided to show the Martins some graditude and suggested they corner the market with trademarking these phrases and " make a few " .

  After all no crisis should ever go to waste .
