A historically black college plans to award Trayvon Martin a posthumous degree later in May, the school announced Wednesday.
Florida Memorial University will present a bachelor’s of aeronautical science May 13 to Martin’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin.
Trayvon Martin died in 2012 after neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman shot him during an altercation.
The award serves to honor Martin’s memory and pay homage to the work his parents do for social justice, the school said.

How freakin stupid is that? Hey..lets award a Thug a posthumous degree. That way we can elevate him to martyr status in the black community and have more people behave like him. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteThat award is just more dumb crap. They were both wrong but he died for it. 10 years from now they will swear he could have been another MLK.
ReplyDeleteTalk about every body gets a trophy!! This has got to be the dumbest thing ever. Right up there with giving obammie the nobel peace prize!
ReplyDeletehahaha
ReplyDeleteHow silly people justify their actions
ReplyDeleteI bet that community organizer Jermichael Mitchell is loving this.
ReplyDeleteThis is stupid, but Trayvon Martin was not the one in the wrong. He was just walking home and an ADULT decided he didn't like Trayvon walking through "his community" so he followed him, escalated the situation and then killed him. It's makes me sick that man is walking around free today. It makes me sad to see people on this page call him a thug. He was just a kid who walked past the wrong house.
ReplyDeleteYou are grossly misinformed. Just spend 2 minutes googling and you might find yourself a bit more informed.
DeleteIf I'm not badly mistaken the young Martin was living with his dad because mom couldn't get him to go to school. How ironic he gets a phony college degree. ROFLMAO!
ReplyDeleteOnly liberals could come up something insane as this.
ReplyDeleteAeronautical science degree because he was flying high on drugs when he was killed.
ReplyDeleteThey gives him that degree because he liked to get high.
ReplyDeleteLOL....this is the only way he could ever have received a college degree!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is soooo wrong!
ReplyDeleteThis thug was killed while assaulting another person!
We should NOT be glorifying thuggery!
Another degree that won't ever be used.
ReplyDeleteWell, he won't be a pilot and he won't be accepting the degree in person.
ReplyDeletelollolol
ReplyDeleteThis dude on his very last day on earth was expelled from school, kicked the black bus driver, and broke into an old black lady's home in his own neighborhood and stole stuff. Then beat Hernandez when he was told to stop in same neighborhood. Any degree awarded to him is CRAZY at its best! History wants to forget his crimes but God won't.

ReplyDeleteThank you!
i too am now on the floor, rolling around, laughing
Way to devalue an aeronautical degree.
ReplyDeleteA degree from this school is now worth LESS THAN nothing... Watch what happens to their enrollments.
ReplyDeleteDamn, yall make me ashamed to be from here. Absolutely horrible. God doesn't forget indeed, you should all remember that before you let this filth pour out of you
ReplyDeleteHow about the Princess Anne father who fired up the generator indide his house and his entire family perished. He received the Father of the Year Award post humus. This is another liberal democrat ploy folks to make the middle class feel responsible for those who make bad decisions.
ReplyDeleteThat degree and $3.50 will get them a cup of coffee at StarBucks.

ReplyDeleteYou must have read the biased unsubstantiated news reports, but obviously did not followed the trial, or read the evidence. What you read was made up by the media and Martin's family. It didn't happen anything like what you say, according to the testimony and the facts in the case. It's why Zimmerman was acquitted. The thug that jumped out and mugged Zimmerman got what he asked for, according to the jury. He wanted a fight, and he got one. Gun beats fists. Assault someone in a state where there is a right to concealed carry, and that is a risk that you take. Thug is dead, Zimmerman is not (because he was armed). As Gomer Pyle used to say, "Surprise, Surprise, Surprise)

You fail to recognize that Zimmerman had as much right to walk in that community, as Martin did. Martin had NO right to assault Zimmerman. Zimmerman was attacked / ambushed by Martin. Facts man, they're available, if you care about the facts.
