McDade was unarmed, he never had a gun. McDade’s father Kenneth spoke at the event organized by NAACP leaders and Pasadena clergy members. "Somebody cut him down for no reason," Kenneth McDade said. "Somebody’s got to be held accountable. As long as I’ve got life in my body I’m going to find out what happened to my son." Community members held signs with images of Trayvon Martin next to images of McDade and point to similarities in both cases–both were unarmed, young black males. "We have our own Trayvon Martin here," said Michelle White, Executive Director at Affordable Housing Services and President of the ACLU Chapter in Pasadena. (White did not speak on behalf of the ACLU.) "Young black males are just an endangered species in the United States and Pasadena is no different in that regard."
