Bro, do you even Trayvon Martin?

Take this short quiz to find out.

He’s gonna end up like OJ. In prison, with a very long sentence, for some stupid bullshit.

I still think he’s going to suicide by Cop one of these days.

Yeah, or that.

Probably setting himself up to sell another piece of rip off art for 100k

Funny thing, the poster boy for white vigilantism got hisself arrested again.

It’s more about how the media ignores one of them though. I had never even heard of Marley Lion until seeing that meme.

Marley wasn’t shot by a wannabe cop.

We knew who George was immediately, we heard the 911 tapes soon after, while the cops did nothing until public pressure mounted. Whereas in the dumb white kid, the shooters were not found until an extensive white privilege investigation and all 4 culprits were found and brought in for justice.

Oh, come on. Thousands of people get murdered – black, white, brown – and we never hear about them.

Furthermore

From Ape’s Snopes link:

The sad fact is that the U.S. sees about 16,000 homicides per year, a number which precludes more than a scant handful of them receiving national news coverage — generally the ones that do garner national attention involve political or social controversy (Trayvon Martin), lurid details (Jodi Arias), celebrities (O.J. Simpson), or victims such as pregnant women, mothers, and children who are perceived as particularly vulnerable and sympathetic (Laci Peterson, Casey Anthony).

Marley Lion’s death, although no less important than anyone else’s, involved none of the extraordinary factors that propel a few select homicide cases into the national spotlight, so — just like thousands of other murder victims — his death remained a local news story.
