| Trayvon Martin’s mother Sybrina Fulton is running for office |
| 2019-05-20 |
| [NYPOST] The mother of Trayvon Martin is running for a seat on the Miami-Dade County Commission, the Miami Herald reported Saturday. Since the death of her 17-year-old son, Sybrina Fulton has been advocating for social justice and an end to gun violence. Martin was shot to death in 2012 by George Zimmerman, a neighborhood crime watch member in Sanford, Fla. Zimmerman was charged with murder, but was acquitted after claiming he fired in self-defense. Fulton said she’s not anti-gun, but wants better gun-control measures, including more background checks. How about apologizing for raising that POS? |

| #10 Is this because Sybrina did such a good job in raising Trayvon that she wants to share her wisdom with the world? Al |

| #9 Interesting piece (Vice, May 2017) on his older brother (not endorsing it as reportage, of course, just as "window into the soul" (of what... you tell me ;-))). |

| #8 This miss who raised Trayvon is pissed! "No vicious young man with a fist, Despising society, Should suffer anxiety, Or ever suspect himself dissed!" Wikipedia bio's an even more impressive catalog of fallacious weaselry than I remembered. Talk page must be a riot... but I'm not feeling immortal today. |

| #6 ....body of George Zimmerman was found with severe head wounds, and that police were still looking for his killer. Also still looking for the motive. Don't forget the motive. |

| #5 If George Zimmerman hadn't had a gun, no one outside of the local area would have ever heard of Trayvon Martin. There would have been a story about how the body of George Zimmerman was found with severe head wounds, and that police were still looking for his killer. |

| #4 The only thing missing in the headline is Trayvon Martin's martyred mother is running for office. Is she running as a Dem? |
