Trayvon Martin

A recent booming story in the news is the death of Trayvon Martin. Trayvon was visiting his dads fiance in a gated neighborhood. He went out during the NBA all star game at halftime to get skittles and a drink at a store. On his way back a man who elected him self "captain" of the neighborhood watch started to follow him and called the police. He described Trayvon walking as suspicious activity.  The police told him to stop following him but continued anyway. He got out of the car and asked Trayvon what he was doing and Trayvon replied why are you following me? After a clear racial slur said on the phone by Zimmerman it is believed he killed Trayvon out of racism. Zimmerman was double Trayvon's weight and age and was armed and Trayvon was not. Witnesses say that it was not self defense and it was unlawful. The fact that Zimmerman has not been arrested is an outrage to humanity.
