A 17-year old is eligible to join the armed forces. He is no longer deemed a boy.

Having weed residue in your book bag a few days ago doesn't mean that on the night in question he was dealing drugs.
However, mental instability and the violent criminal record of the ADULT MALE who killed the minor is relevant because he KILLED someone who was walking along minding his own business and when he was told to not approach his victim, he did so anyway.
"Those __________ are always getting away."
The law that zim hope to protect him was never designed to protect the person who starts an altercation with someone and when that person defends himself, the initiator kills his target.
As for "looking suspicious" or looking like an adult-- that argument never holds up for cases of statutory rape and it should not hold up here.
Or as a society, do we not want consistency when it comes to the application of our laws and the protection of our law abiding citizenry?

You are pushing the "looking suspicious" again. We simply do not know what has happened in this case. We do not know the full facts.
We had background on Zimmerman where people were calling him mentally unstable. Well, I brought out some background on Trayvon. If we are going to look at Zimmerman's background and take that into consideration, we are going to do that with Trayvon as well.
This has been my only dog in the fight and I will let PJ Tatler speak for me as you won't let me use the verbiage they have used:

"As soon as this story became a political football, the backgrounds of both Zimmerman and Martin became relevant. Discussion of both became fair game. From what we continue to learn about both, this story just refuses to cooperate with the medialeft’s narrative of white racist Republican cracker killed angelic black youth in cold blood, police look the other way citing unnecessary “stand your ground” laws. The man who pulled the trigger was neither white nor Republican. The black youth was less than angelic."

And this was the most pathetic video I have ever seen, besides Al Sharpton:

I don't know who did what, but I'm sure not going to sit here pointing fingers at ONE person to hang. I'm going to look at BOTH of them. When I have background on BOTH, I'm going to look at them BOTH.
