RE: It wasn't just Skittles Trayvon was carrying
you are right, It wasn't just Skittles Trayvon was carrying. He carried a huge chip on his shoulder. A racial chip.

Among its reports, Trayvon Martin’s drug use, explaining how the Skittles and Arizona Watermelon Fruit Juice Cocktail drink he carried that night are ingredients that, when mixed with dextromethorphan (DXM) cough syrup, create “Lean”, a concocted high which can cause psychosis and aggression over the longer term. According to the autopsy report, Martin’s liver showed damage consistent with DXM abuse.

I would appreciate some evidence of that. I just read the medical examiners report and for the liver it states, "no diagnostic abnormalities". That certainly doesn't appear consistent with what you have stated. Of course I might have missed something.
No.You didn't miss anything. The story was from WND. THey have a history of making **** up or majorly spinning to the right.
Exactly - and then morons go around quoting it as truth, and sending it out in chain emails.

Show me that it's SOP to draw blood and do tox on every shooter.
If you want the entire story, then you test both.
How do you know Z wasn't tested?
The police said that they didn't feel like they needed to.

Not what I asked is it?
Do you think or know if it is standard procedure to take blood and test of everyone who shoots at another person? It *IS* SOP to do panels on a corpse as part of an autopsy.
I really don't know. However, if you are going to release the tox report of the victim, then you should release the tox report of the shooter. Me thinks that old George got a lot of benefit of the doubt.

That is for pseudoephedrine. Dextromethorphan is sold without an id check. Sadly, these ghetto kids, influenced by idiots like Lil Wayne will change that.
Of course, Dextromethorphan is not used to make Lean, at least from the wikipedia description, the ingredient is cough syrup with Codeine (a controlled substance). (Which also makes the eye candy in this thread disingenuous because there is a key ingredient missing in all of this speculation). Dextromethorphan is subject to substance abuse by ingesting large amounts... the manufacturer has links on their website to organizations to ostensibly prevent abuse of OTC medicine. But, the allegation requires a prescription drug, not Robitussin DM, which has no codeine.

RE: It wasn't just Skittles Trayvon was carrying
Not entirely true. I was in high school a hundred years ago, and knew guys then doing "Robo's". This is nothing new and it was the same OTC crap that's there now.
I've forgotten exactly what they would do, but I think it was chug a bottle of Robitussen, then shotgun two beers. They would be HAMMERED, and these guys were pretty hardcore partiers.

Fair enough. And why not? Could it it be he appeared coherent and lucid, and gave them no impression that he was in any way impaired?

I'm not sure what you're saying is not entirely true. Robitussen + two beers has nothing to do with what Trayvon Martin /was carrying, nor does it have anything to do either with a controlled substance (codeine) or meth precursor that is tracked by the state (pseudoephedrine). I included a link about Dextromethorphan abuse, so I'm lost as to what you are challenging.

It is used when codeine cannot be obtained. .

If black kids were smart they would just order dried poppy pods and make tea. Way better than codeine in cough syrup IMO

And yet, it has nothing at all to do with what Trayvon Martin had in his possession that night...
edit: I guess I can see where you're getting at, but mentally, I just can't get over the difference between a small amount of narcotic and a large amount of hallucinogen are discussed in the same context.

Why the need to qualify this with a racial determination? If you think white (or hispanic) kids don't abuse things like this in great numbers to get a high, you're just plain delusional.

Rent free in your head. Really strange porn you've got here. The threesomes, I get. The bondage, I get. But what's with the midget?

Indeed. My cousin died from abusing prescription drugs (that he was not prescribed), and he was lilly white and on the fast track to law school and/or a career in politics - his folks were well connected and he had a very prestigious scholarship lined up.
The overt racism that has cropped up here is nauseating.

Well I am referring to sizzyrup(grape soda/codiene cough syrup)or whatever it is called. Something primarily consumed by african americans and the occasional wegroe. I know all kinds I white people that abuse drugs.
