"If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon"

President Obama weighed in on the tragedy of the Trayvon Martin killing early Friday morning during a Rose Garden news conference nominating a new head to the World Bank. Here's part of what he had to say:

"My main message is to the parents of Trayvon Martin: If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon. I think they are right to expect that all of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves, and we're going to get to the bottom of what happened."

Clear details have yet to surface as to why this 17-year old was shot and killed by a neighborhood watch member. The controversy really ignites over police handling of the case. With luck, the truth will be revealed, and those guilty will be brought to justice for this senseless crime.
