Parents say their son’s death not God’s plan



MIRAMAR, Fla. — The parents of the unarmed teen who was shot and killed by a Florida neighborhood watch volunteer rejected the shooter’s claim that the death was a part of God’s plan.
In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity televised Wednesday, George Zimmerman said he felt the course of the night 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was killed “was all God’s plan.”
“We must worship a different God,” Martin’s father, Tracy Martin, said today. “There is no way that my God wanted George Zimmerman to murder my teenage son.”
Speaking this morning on NBC’s “Today” show, the teen’s mother, Sybrina Fulton, said the notion was “ridiculous.”
In the Fox News interview, Zimmerman also said he’d like to talk with Trayvon Martin’s parents about what happened.
“Absolutely not,” Fulton said when asked on NBC if she’d be willing to meet with Zimmerman.
