A Peaceful Person Much has been made about Trayvon’s suspensions from school in the months leading up to his death. His school disciplined him for chronic lateness, tagging graffiti on campus and carrying a bag with trace amounts of marijuana inside. Despite these infractions, Trayvon’s family and friends have consistently stated that he was a peaceful person. Kindhearted, even-tempered and thoughtful are the adjectives the New York Times reported that the late teen’s loved ones used to describe him. Trayvon’s mother, Sybrina Fulton, told New York Times columnist Charles Blow that Trayvon hadn’t had a physical confrontation with anyone since his preschool years. Moreover, Trayvon’s older brother Jahvaris Fulton—the person Trayvon fought with as 4-year-old—described his departed sibling to CNN as nonviolent.
