A Month Later, and There Is Still No Justice for Trayvon

Today is the one month anniversary of the murder of Trayvon Martin, and this past month has been filled with outrage and sorrow not just for his family but for our country. Trayvon Martin, an African American teen, was killed while walking in a gated community. His murderer, a self appointed white neighborhood watchman named George Zimmerman, is still walking free and has yet to be arrested. Zimmerman told police that he felt threatened by Martin because he was wearing a hooded sweatshirt, he looked like he was on drugs, and because he had his hands in his pocket. The facts of this case are: 1. When Zimmerman called the police he told them that Martin wasn’t bothering him, but yet he still made the decision to follow the teen and intimidate him. 2. A woman who lived in the neighborhood called the police as she heard and saw the teen crying out for help followed by a gunshot. 3. When the police arrived they found Zimmerman with minor bruises, but he didn’t go to the hospital. 4. When they found the body of Martin all he had on him was a pack of skittles, an Arizona iced tea, and his I-phone. 5. The police appear to be protecting Zimmerman by with holding his criminal records, and refusing to hear the accounts of the witnesses to the crime scene.

Will Smith Congratulates Doug Collins on his 400th Career Win!

In West Philadelphia Born and Raised.Its great too see Will Smith step up and represent his home town Philly by buying and coowning part of the 76ers franchise. Will Smith has had an amazing career as an actor and entertainer. At one point it seemed as if he grew distant from his hometown with his tight schedule. He even found time to write a song about his newly found home town "Welcome to Miami". No Hard feelings. Just saying Philly a should have came 1st..lol However it is great to finally see him take part in Philadelphia Pride.
