Trayvon Martin shooting

Trayvon Martin shooting, Tracy Martin said he took his son to Sanford "to disconnect and get his priorities straight". Martin had been to Twin Lakes several times before with his father, and sometimes played football with the kids in the neighborhood. On the night of the shooting, Tracy was out to dinner with his fiancée, Brandy Green, while Trayvon and Green's son stayed at home, watching TV and playing video games. Trayvon went out, walking to a local 7-11 store where he bought Skittles for Green's son and an Arizona-brand watermelon-flavored fruit juice drink.

After returning from the store to the Twin Lakes neighborhood, George Zimmerman, a volunteer Neighborhood Watch person, spotted Martin, who was 5 ft 11 in (1.80 m) tall and weighed 158 pounds (72 kg) at the time of his death. Zimmerman called Sanford police to report Martin, who he said appeared "suspicious". The police dispatcher advised Zimmerman to remain in his vehicle until police arrived on the scene. However, because of his suspicision of Martin, Zimmerman got out of his car, disobeying police orders, and followed Martin on foot. Moments later, there was an altercation between the two individuals in which Zimmerman shot Martin, killing him. Zimmerman claimed self-defense and was eventually charged in Martin's death. On June 10, 2013, Zimmerman's trial began in Sanford and on July 13, a jury acquitted him of second-degree murder and of manslaughter charges.

Obama's Involvement
On February 23, 2012 President Obama apologizes to Afghan President Hamid Karzai for the burning of Korans by NATO troops. Then on February 26 Trayvon Martin was shot and killed by George Zimmerman. This gives President Obama enough time to pay a murderer to kill an innocent person to start a racial divide between African Americans and White Americans. Also the murder could be caused by humiliation from the actions of NATO burning religious books.
