Sharpton and others like him are convinced that they can bring enough pressure on Obama & Holder to ignore the Law, ignore the trial by jury & the verdict ....... just because they don't like the verdict.
Overdoing anything is alway the worst thing since people will get sick and tired off the same over and over aside from the uneducated and people who have time on their hands....

They do need to have a national day of action. Where they get together and decide what actions they're gonna take to start cleaning up the neighborhoods.

I mean come on at this point Trayvon is dead, the trial is over, it is REALLY time to move on and start focusing on the ones that are still alive. This is the time for parents to sit down with their kids and say "do you see how what you post online can be used against you? Even if you were joking; even if you were quoting lyrics from a song; even if you are re-tweeting someone else's comments people who don't know you will make this your character."

This is time for parents to sit down and talk to their kids about drugs. This is the time for parents to talk to their kids about guns and violence. This is the time for parents to talk to their kids about what to do if they perceive they are in danger or something is unusual. This is the time for parents to explain to their kids how their choices come with consequences, especially when they're in their late teens and approaching adulthood. This is the time to explain that times have changed, technology is not forgiving of growing pains.

This isn't the time to be marching around protesting.

Stirring the racial pot to line his pockets. That's what Sharpton is all about.

First the Martin supporters said they just wanted Zimmerman to get arrested...got it. Then wanted day in court, got it via bypassing grand jury. Now Zimmerman was found not guilty so they want ANOTHER trial. They just keep moving the bar.

Default Why is the Zimmerman verdict a civil rights violation?

I don't understand the outrage. I don't agree with the verdict, but what are people demanding from our government?

Maybe he should call for a national "Steven Pagones" day. That is the man who's life he ruined in the Tawana brawley case.

Yes. It really does start at home with the parents.
