Several weeks ago, as further information and discovery came to the surface the whole framing of the original media narrative began to crumble, I stumbled over a reference to “DXM†in Trayvon’s Facebook history.
It’s nagged at me since, at various times popping to the front of my mind when Trayvon’s drug use was mentioned, was quickly lost to other distractions. A couple of evenings ago it again came to the forefront of consideration. This time I decided to dig in, do a little research, and see if there might actually be something to it.
What I found was frankly, quite stunning. So much so that it literally made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
After further reflection this drug use aspect may actually lead to the greatest understanding, and key, to the whole case. Understanding exactly where the mindset was of both Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman, and what influences are now readily available and out in the public forum, a number of questions are now finding answers about that evening’s events, most importantly what precipitated and led to Trayvon Martin’s approach toward being questioned by George Zimmerman.
Don't laugh--I just found out that kids around here are drinking hand sanitizer to get buzzed.
How far we've fallen.
“… 6. Lean is a mixed drink originating in the Southern Rap culture. It is a mixture of Promethazine and Codeine cough syrup and a soft drink such as Sprite (usually). While other soft drinks may be used, Sprite was the original.
All I know is this stuff is the shiznet. If Martin was into this, he couldn't have been all bad:Rhymes with Jimmie Dean.

I love meat..............hmmmmmmm?
Trayvon was doing Lean
To try and come clean.
He was on the phone
walking between homes.
He was a thug
And we know it.
Never said I was a poet :bird:
Now we see whyInigo Montoya: That Vizzini, he can *fuss*.
Maybe you shouldn't try?

I love meat.
It's actually textured soy, for the we-have-to-watch-our-cholesterol set. Comes in beef flavor, too. It's pretty good. Not as good as meat, but pretty good.

Bet you still sneak in a steak or real burger once in a while though . . . :wink:
"Textured soy" reminds me of what we were force-issued when I cooked for the Army a bazillion years ago. We had to grill "hamburger" patties in a vain attempt to get people to eat that stuff.
Besides the appearance, which looked like formed and pressed Alpo, those things smelled like microwaved socks.
After having been worn a few days, of course.
Disgusting ain't the word. We need to ratchet that one up to OMGGMTFOOH.
You'd win that bet too, nj. It's also good to have the best company when "cheating." Feels better when someone joins you. (Why, am I coming apart?). So I eat the real stuff with my BFF--she's a natural carnivore, and oh-so-extra-cute when she tears into a good rib eye.
