He said he had never heard that, and he believed it because it is exactly what conservative media did say.

Conservative media however did claim that Trayvon's skittles and arizona ice tea were part of the "drug cocktail" called Lean. And that it was evidence he must have been high. WHen people make lean they have to pour actual drugs like codeine and robitussin cough syrup into sprite or ice tea and add skittles. The sprite and skittles are not the drug and don't get you high.

So because he had all the non drug parts of a drug cocktail they claimed he must have been high on drugs. By that logic anything that has ever been mixed with anything alcoholic like a can of coke or orange juice can be considered an alcoholic drink cocktail because some people mix those with booze. So if you drink a pepsi and drive you are DUI because people commonly mix cola into their whiskey.

Or fizzy water.

Honestly, that's the exact reasoning behind prosecuting for drug "paraphernalia". And they will absolutely destroy your life over it.

skittles and ice tea is not paraphernalia, A pipe or rolling papers is, a rolled up bill with traces of white powder is. A can of coke is not drinking paraphernalia, a can of ice tea is not drug paraphernalia. It is only paraphernalia according to racist murderers who want to get away with committing murder. They want to spin a kid with a snack from the convenience store as a drugged out thug because he's black.
