A huge new mural called We Are All Trayvon Martin was unveiled in the Florida State Capitol.
It was created by a Miami artist who is clearly very sympathetic towards Martin.
Titled, We Are All Trayvon Martin, the painting shows Zimmerman firing a gun at a hoodie-wearing figure. The painting features a mirror to signify that the shooting could have happened to anyone. There is also an image of Martin Luther King Jr. with blood trickling down his head.
Artist Huong unveiled the creation during a sit-in to protest Floridas so-called stand your ground law. (Stand your ground had absolutely nothing to do with this case. Effin' idiot).
Poster Comment:
Alternate title: George Zimmerman now set for another defamation suit against an alleged "artist" who has to know better. At least if she had paid any attention at all to the trial she would have. The man was found NOT GUILTY and for good reason. He was attacked and defended himself. Case closed.
George Zimmerman should sue the "artist" as well as whoever approved putting this pos in the Capitol Building. I hope he sues their asses and breaks them from doing stuff like this.
All these people wanting "Justice for Trayvon" are not racists, some of them might be, but many of them are only going on what they have heard in the established media and for that reason they think that Zimmerman shot Trayvon just for being black and out at night. Some of these people probably have faced real discrimination in their lives and can readily believe that Zimmerman was only following Trayvon because he was black. I highly doubt that is the case with Zimmerman, but when you only get slanted news to go by, combined with personal instances of racism directed at you, then I can understand why they would think Trayvon was murdered. The media is knowingly using propaganda combined with physiological profiling of blacks to try to cause riots. If we can't break through the lies of the media and get the truth out about many important issues, then this country is finished, if it isn't already. Lies and the ability of people to readily accept those lies from government institutions and established mass media outlets, are some of this nation's biggest threats to its survival. Blacks, Whites, Hispanics and Asians can all live together peacefully if the truth is reported instead of lies on constant basis. Those that rule over us have an incentive to keep us divided with lies, it takes the focus off of them, the number one trouble makers in this nation.

In other words, uninformed, reactionary, morons who don't know a thing about the facts of the case.

Below is a piece of info that made me think there's more that we are not being told.

Turns out that he wasn't even acting as an on-duty Neighborhood Watch Patrol that night and, reportedly, the HOA/Homeowners Association stated that they aren't supposed to be armed there.

The Twin Lakes Retreat Neighborhood Watch group is apparently unregistered, with HOA standards of its own, but its Homeowners Association President agrees with the Training Program not to act as the police. Some sources on that and Zimmerman being off-duty:
His lawyers have indicated that they will pursue a self-defense strategy, arguing that Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer who was off-duty, was protecting himself in a confrontation with the teenager.
Zimmerman Trial Day 2 Analysis of States Witnesses: Donald OBrien, President Twin Lakes Home Owners Association - 7.5 minute YouTube of court testimony from 6:00 on the Neighborhood Watch Program (the "stucco guys" crew discussed starting at 2:50 were not part of the HOA's Neighborhood Watch group and are not said to have been armed)
When 28-year-old George Zimmerman was discovered by Sanford, Florida police standing over the body of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, they accepted Zimmermans claim that he killed in self-defense as a neighborhood watch captain. Now, through a statement released by the National Sheriffs Association (NSA) the parent organization of USAonWatch-Neighborhood Watch it has been revealed that Zimmerman was not a member of any group recognized by the organization. Zimmerman violated the central tenets of Neighborhood Watch by following Martin, confronting him and carrying a concealed weapon.

Very very interesting information. I am well informed about neighborhood watch programs and usually when a person is involved with such a program, they are registered and recognized by that agency as well as local police departments, sheriffs, and their neighborhood.
Dorival, a civilian with the Sanford police department, was volunteering as a coordinator because she believed in neighborhood watch programs. She would do presentations to those wanting to start such programs. She said she is still at the police department but in a different position.
Dorival testified that in fall 2011, she visited Zimmerman and other residents at the housing complex to discuss setting up a watch program. During her testimony, prosecutor Guy focused on her instructions to residents about how to behave when they spotted a suspicious person.
Their duty is to be the eyes and ears. Report crime as they see it, said Dorival, adding that she provided handouts stressing this and also explained it verbally during the meeting. Zimmerman was there as the neighborhood watch coordinator, a role he told Dorival had been assigned him by the president of the homeowners' association.

Is this true, GreyLmist? The part about the President of the Homeowners Association assigning Zimmerman the role as Neighborhood Watch Coordinator? Does that also mean Zimmmerman had a right to carry a concealed weapon to take on that role?

Wow, your last question really shows how little you know about anything.
No wonder you think TM was an innocent little child skipping home with some skittles in his hand and a song in his heart....

The true story of the martyrdom of Trayvon Martin
For those who did not follow the trial, here is a brief summary, compiled from CBS, CNN, and MSNBC news reports:
Eighth grade honor student Trayvon Martin is walking home from church, eager to do his homework.
Aryan Nation member George Zimmerman is driving around in his pickup truck with Confederate flag license plate and decals.
Zimmerman spots Martin in the dark by the light glowing from the little boys halo.
The Klansman takes chase, hunting Trayvon down like a dog.
The budding football star nearly outruns the racist, but he stops when he comes to a Do Not Enter sign.
Unwilling to disobey a lawful sign, he turns to face his attacker.
The child attempts to reason with his attacker, but the illiterate power-mad cop-wannabe is not inclined to listen to reason, or pleas for compassion.
Despite numerous specific orders from police officers to not leave his vehicle, Zimmerman exits his truck and says, Any last words, n****r?
Praise Jesus. God bless you, Sir, replies the helpless youngster.
Zimmerman drags the future Nobel Peace Prize winner on top of him.
A witness sees the youngster repeatedly swinging his arms, apparently attempting to make the sign of the cross.
White-Hispanic Power! screams Zimmerman, as he empties the high-capacity clip loaded with armor-piercing hollow-point bullets from his semi-automatic assault gun with the shoulder thingy that goes up into the body.
Zimmerman then fiendishly punches himself in the face, breaking his nose, and repeatedly bangs his head on the sidewalk while screaming Help me! Help me! which obviously is a secret racist code for Heil Hitler.
When he is finished murdering Martin, Zimmerman gets back into his gas- guzzling, globe-warming pickup truck and makes his escape.
More likely than that, since there's scant evidence of a struggle on the hands of either one of them, would be GZ rendering TM unconcious somehow where he stood as he spoke to him and all the one-sided hollering heard with TM allegedly witnessed pinning him down and pummeling him during a supposed fracas a staged show as a cover-story for Z, with the point-blank gunfire the "grand finale".
