Who is responsible for a child‘s welfare? Who is supposed to keep a child from absorbing and joining a street culture that promotes thug life? If Trayvon was a child (and he was still, legally, a minor) the responsible parties who failed him first were his parents. Those same self-aggrandizing sops who ignored his welfare for their own, and now seek to cover their own failings by shifting blame to George Zimmerman.
Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, failed parents, share as much responsibility for Travyvon Martin’s behavior (the drug use, the fighting that got him kicked out of school, the thug behavior pattern that got him killed) as George Zimmerman. They failed to properly raise and nurture their child.
