I'm pretty sure he's going to get a lot of American female fans from that cover photo. It's a good photo of him and he was a good looking young man.
He already has dumb young girls sending him fan mail. Not for anything, but IMO...he looks just like his mother and I find them pretty plain looking at best.

They did what the media typically does of young white males to go rogue. They refer to him as normal or good etc, and then ask the question, "What went wrong?"

Ironically, the media actually made Trayvon look nice and innocent (he was legally innocent and should not have been followed by Zimmy, but he was not a very morally innocent young man) by putting up photos of him as a much younger kid.

You can use photography or Photoshopping to make someone look more menacing too.

I have to agree with you here. We still have others his age in countries they have no place being getting killed but yet the uproar is over a mostly irrelevant magazine's cover.

I won't read the magazine again, not even if the choice is that or Knitting World at my dentists office.
This is President Obama's magazine of choice for deciding American foreign policy.

Remember when Rolling Stone ran an article about the Commanding General in Afghanistan criticizing Obama? Obama fired him even though the article was largely false.

Hell of a way to run a war. Reading magazines aimed at drug addicted teens, lols.

I knew RS would pull a stunt like this. Enemies of America are friends of the radical Left. Only a liberal rag like Rolling Stone would show sympathy for the Devil.

I'm rather approving of this Rolling Stone issue as the magazine editors were ballsy enough to finally puts on its cover the ultimate role model for Occupy Wall Street.
