UPDATE: Trayvon Martin's mom retracts 'accident' characterization, says Zimmerman killed him in 'cold blood' Read: http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/04/12/1115…Oh boy..smh. I was afraid her earlier comments could prove to be problematic. THIS is what happens when you DON'T have competent legal representation. It seems to me, the minute the Special Prosecutor filed charges against Zimmerman Trayvon's parents should have been advised to STOP. TALKING. No more interviews of ANY kind in order to avoid having their words create problems (SUCH AS HER WORDS THIS MORNING) for the case.

'Cause we believed him.We now stand at a moment in our nation's history, forty four years later, where our road forward doesn't seem so clear. Our map towards justice is partly torn. Our path has been partially blocked. We lost another Martin. A loss that shakes the very foundation in which we stand on. A loss that hurts so bad that some of us have lost sight of that mountaintop. Some of us just want Martin back. But this Martin is not an icon or a t-shirt, a campaign slogan or a poster. He is the beautiful son of Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin. Two amazing parents who raised a 17-year-old son who just wanted to watch the game. Damn, I wish he knew.I wish he knew that since his death we have searched for the soul of this nation. We have begun to ask questions that have never been asked. We have challenged each other in ways that we have yet to do. We yearn for a post-racial America. Aspirational. Not a reality. We know that. We still have much work to do. Soul-searching. […]Read: http://globalgrind.com/news/trayvon-martin-martin…

MSNBC: "Trayvon Martin's mom says she thinks his killing was an 'accident' "Trayvon Martin’s mother Sybrina Fulton told the TODAY show Thursday that she believes her son’s fatal shooting by George Zimmerman was an accident."I believe it was an accident, I believe that it just got out of control and he couldn’t turn the clock back," she said. "I would ask him, 'Did he know that that was a minor, that that was a teenager and that he did not have a weapon?'” she added. […]Read: http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/04/12/1115…
