Though the setting of the [Trayvon Martin] tragedy may not have much bearing on the criminal investigation, the issue of place is something that should not evade public scrutiny. Martin was deemed “suspicious” while walking in a gated community. — Next American City

glad to see someone writing about the link between trayvon's murder and gated communities. i think that this discussion really needs to take place not just among architects and planners, but the public as well. i was browsing the area in google earth the other day and was amazed at the proliferation of these walled developments, something i'm not too familiar with here in ohio.
