A murderer still walks free?

Perhaps you've heard about this already.

On February 26th, 2012, 17 year old Trayvon Martin was shot and killed as he walked home from a convenience store.

Trayvon was no thug. He was no criminal. He was a child who had gone to buy some candy.

His killer is claiming he acted in self-defense. His killer had a gun and claimed his victim "looked suspicious". Trayvon, a person of color, had a pack of Skittles and was walking through the gated community where his father lived.

The police are declining to press charges.

This all makes me so sick. That poor child and his family...this isn't right.
