Jan. 16 (UPI) – Sybrina Fulton, who’s 17-year-old son Trayvon Martin was shot by neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman in 2012, visited the University of Utah on Thursday to discuss racial profiling.
Hundreds attended the Martin LutherKing Week event, in which Fulton said that an “upside” to her son’s death was the “opportunity to save someone else’s child.”
“Don’t think for one second racial profiling doesn’t happen. Don’t think for one minute even in your community of Salt Lake City it doesn’t happen,” she said. ”Racism is still alive. Racial profiling is still alive. Injustice is still alive.”
Fulton said that the circumstances of her son’s death — he was wearing a hoodie when Zimmerman shot him — applied all over the country.
“There should not become a time when we are comfortable with burying our children,” Fulton said. “What happened many miles away in Sanford should be uncomfortable for you.”
“Is it the hoodie that really made the difference? Or the color of his skin?” she asked. “And if by one second, just by one mere second, we think that it’s the color of his skin, then something is wrong with America.”
“”At the end of the day, it’s not about Trayvon. It’s about the person that felt he was suspicious,” she added.

She could do so much good by talking to young black students about her son's death and how the choices he made resulted in his own death. But of course, she chooses the low road, the Rearend
Al road, of the innocent black victim targeted by racist's who is are out to get them. There is just more money in race baiting. Just ask Al and Jessah. Considering how Trayvon™ turned out, it's probably a good idea to ignore his mom. Trayvon™ was no little inoocent darling. He was a cheap, young, drug thug. Trayvon™ was not shot for wearing the hoodie. He was shot because he was trying to kill Zimmermann by banging his head on the sidewalk. She's not going to let this gig end if she can help it. She'll keep pumping the cash cow as long as the boot-licking media and intellectually impaired Obowel voter types will buy her bullshit. "Racism is still alive" and Sabrina Fulton and is going to do her best to make sure it stays alive. Afterall, she has a trademark on it." MC
