Well they got the ear of the WH. WH officials met with the NAACP to discuss their demand.
The WH getting involved is not going to end well.

The WH got involved early on with both Holder and Obama voicing opinions in favor of Martin.
Way to go to sway public opinion.


On Martin case, Obama shifts from passion to calm
Senior White House officials have discussed the case with NAACP leaders in recent days, the organization said.

I hope we as a people, are willing to stand up if they continue to pursue and it leads to them taking some sort of action. I dont want to see violence. However, I believe there are as many of us who see what they're doing and I hope we're just as willing as the other side is, to stand up and let our voices be heard if that time comes.

This isnt about calling Zimmerman a hero, but if the time comes, I will gladly stand up for him. But it wouldnt just be for him, it would be for truth and justice and to call this entire charade out for what it is. I hope predictions by some are correct, and this goes no where. But I have a bad feeling that they're going to fight tooth and nail to keep this from dying out. When they start calling this a lynching and comparing it to a real lynching from the 60's, I believe that is a sign that they dont care how they do it, they are going to take some sort of action, legally or illegally.
