Why does Obama still portray Trayvon Martin as a victim, but not Chris Kyle?

The family of Trayvon Martin was sitting next to Gabby Giffords and her husband at the inauguration.
So now just ANYBODY who gets shot is a victim, unless he's a member of the armed services?

No! You have to be black! If you're white and get killed, it's ok. But if you're black, it is a HUGE DEAL! What a joke right? Chris Kyle, American hero, hasn't been talked about by the president of the United States. But he sure has no problem saying that if he had a son, he'd look like Trayvon Martin!

Because Treyvon Martin was a victim of a psycho White Hispanic cop wannabe who hunted down and murdered in cold blood an unarmed law abiding Black teenager
Under Florida's Stand Your Ground Law which you never actually read Treyvon Martin was allowed to kill George Zimmerman in self defense

So walking home from the store eating candy is a crime....? If some big man confronted me with a weapon, at night, i'd be scared as hell.
