autopsy showed THC in his system but yeah, I guess he could have been doing his homework in a cloud of smoke from others. lol
What f**king difference does it make if A MURDER victim was doing whatever right before? Especially mar1juana.
Or just hanging around somebody doing it. I remember some members of my former paintball crew smoked weed and I was around them and did not use and we were outdoors no less. I later took an at-home drug test on my own that my cousin had to take for his parents and ended up failing. Now whether it was because of the weed, something else, or just faulty I don't know but I wasn't using other drugs, legal or illegal at the time.
Experts have already stated he wasn't doing it right before or the concentrations of THC in his system would have been higher.
Are you guys going to be so petty as to note that it might not be murder? Ok, same question, what does it matter if in the hour or so before he died, Trayvon took mar1juana? The boy is DEAD. And you are all are trying to play some character assassination s*** to the grave. Which, personally, is where I draw the line of decency, but hey, to each their own I guess.

Sorry I must have missed you objecting to the GZ character assassination game the media has been playing since this story surfaced
Is GZ dead? Think carefully. You haven't heard me object to the GZ s*** parade but don't mark that as an assumption on where I stand. I have however seen you in particular, telling people to be slower to judge, and not to base things on the "court of public opinion." That's just rank hypocrisy, and it needs to be pointed out. It should not matter if Trayvon took mar1juana or not. The boy is dead. His life was taken. The least consequential detail to that is whether he smoked mar1juana before his death.
It could actually have some importance If Martin was walking around the neighborhood about to purchase drugs, then it could explain why he may have acted aggressively -- he could have been paranoid or nervous as he waited to purchase drugs. Not sure. However, GZ did say he was walking slowly, and TM had cash to buy drugs ($40) and a lighter that could come in handy to smoke it...
Thanks. ATW, I love how I come in any thread, and you nuthug me within three seconds. Keep it up, buddy.
"The court of public opinion and speculation". Yeah, you're just about being the biggest hypocrite when it comes to telling people not to judge the situation. Throwing a ridiculous hypothetical like this...just wow. $40 and a lighter makes you a drug dealer now, I guess. Did he have rolling papers and a Wiz Khalifa tattoo too? Let's wait and see if the evidence provided confirms this direction, before you character assassinate a dead youth.
that's why I said "not sure". I don't know this to be a fact. It could be an explanation, however. It's not outside the realm of the possible...
Right. So, you constantly bring up how Trayvon could have smoked mar1juana as if it's some big deal, when you first were all about "not rushing to judgement" and "not judging people in the court of public opinion." Now in some desperate attempt to gain some moral footing, you link it to a ridiculous hypothetical based on the scantest circumstantial evidence I have ever seen, and mark it in the "realm of the possible." I'm going to assume that somewhere outside that realm is your ability to detect when you're straight out being inconsistent.
I didn't say we could confirm it for a fact. Merely tossing out a hypothetical and characterizing it as such. So your faux anger is misplaced. You seem to be acting very defensive -- not sure what nerve I touched with you. Maybe you're unhappy because the case against GZ has appeared to have weakened, based on the evidence released to the media? not sure
Here you rush to judgement again. I am merely noting how petty and (I usually reserve these words, but this seems to be a good case) repulsive your attempts to character assassinate a dead youth are. I have long given up on following the GZ case (because frankly, there are bigger fish to fry), but I don't think it is kosher for you to willy-nilly throw out assertions about his character or behavior based on nothingness. I especially don't think this because even if it were true, and he was smoking mar1juana, so the f**k what? Last I checked that wasn't a death penalty item. I am sensitive to the fact that you seem to throw out that smoking mar1juana seems to imply you are some kind of dysfunctional being or something, which I vehemently disagree with. "GZ is a child-eating robot. I base this on the fact that he has been seen with children. IT'S IN THE REALM OF THE POSSIBLE!" At least GZ will have his day in court to figure this all out. Trayvon is dead. And people like you still can't refrain from going down and character assassinating a dead youth.
