With all the new things coming out from this case there is a decent chance Zimmerman will not be charged or be found not guilty in trial. A trial will take months to years but charges are not that far away. Things could get violent if charges are not pressed.

I think I may need to relocate myself back north if sh*t hits the fan. Gonna be a nasty race war here, and I do not want to involved with other people's ignorance an stupidity. I always get heckled for not 'being Black'. Why should I associate my skin color with ignorance, and what happened to my ancestors 200 years ago? I wasn't there, nor was I born during the segregation era, but whatever, I'm just sick of all this nonsense.

I think that the situation now is radically different from 1980. The main problem is the MEDIA, Politicians, Pastors and "Community Leaders". They were the ones that ignited the fuse 32 years ago.

I don't think that promoting riots benefits them right now, not in their agenda as in 1980. People have changed after 9/11 and the crisis.

They picked a store near the school, with video surveillance, with a school principal present.

I think law abiding citizens should start a rally if they aren't prosecuted.

What pastor or civil right activist is telling these kids to act a fool like this? Its time for us to grow up as adults before we can ask kids to. Unfortunatly bad decisions where made by the Sanford PD. They are not very good examples for our kids or how to be held accountable. Pators and civil rights activist has nothing to do with it.

On the news there were roving bands of teens in the Miami/Dade area protesting the killing of the young man by the "neighborhood watch" idiot. Reportedly they are committing random acts of vandalism and violence.
Perhaps it wasn't random. Perhaps they racially profiled you.

That makes them look really good. Maybe they should tell them about South Central in 1992. I was there to witness it.

Some of the stores that were burned down never came back.

I remember one older black man was called an Uncle Tom when he said violence is not the answer during the 92 riot and he replied "well even Uncle Tom was smart enough not to burn down his own cabin".

Maybe Walgreens will close that store.
