How does Reagan's " War on Drugs" affect Trayvon Martin case

It has been reported that Trayvon Martin was in Sanford because he was suspended from his Miami high school, because marijuana residue was found in his book bag. If not for that, Trayvon would have been in school, although he was shot on Sunday night.  It was first reported that he had been suspended because of excessive tardiness.

Once in the "system", it's hard to get out. That is the main reason black kids don't succeed in school: not because they are not smart and can't perform academic work, but because they won't bend to authority at every level. Even Barack Obama admitted to doing drugs while a student.

This still doesn't eliminate the fact that Trayvon Martin was killed by George Zimmerman.
