Statistics show a deep divide in opinions along racial lines regarding the killing of a black Florida teenager, Trayvon Martin, by George Zimmerman, who is of mixed ethnicity, white and Hispanic.
Zimmerman has claimed self-defense, invoking the Sunshine States Stand Your Ground law which has also come under intense scrutiny in the wake of the incident.
Reuters news service reported last week, 91% of blacks believe Martin was unjustly killed, while only 35% of whites concurred. Hispanics were in between at 59% according to polling numbers Reuters gathered by querying nearly 2,000 Americans.
The disparity of views over Martins death is even less ambiguous than another racially charged case, the O.J. Simpson murder trial.
--snip--
Significantly nonexistent afterwards was rioting, looting and burning of businesses, or attacks on hapless victims. After all, a black man had received justice, so-called.
Not so when the jury in the trial of police officers involved in the beating of defiant motorist Rodney King in Los Angeles failed to elicit the verdicts minorities were clamoring for.
In the days following that trial, blacks and Hispanics took to the streets of the L.A. basin killing, burning, rampaging, and robbing, feeling they had been denied justice...

I think that the threats are coming because the evidence is so weak. I think a lot of those that jumped all over this case now realize that an acquittal on the evidence is now likely, and are going into a threats of riots mode to get what they want.
this won’t be a rerun of the LA riots. Everyone will have plenty of warning, so they will be prepared this time. If you think gun sales in the US have already been strong under obama, you ain’t seen nothing yet !
I suspect that what rioting and destruction they do will be confined to their own inner city neighbourhoods.
Also, if voters see black mobs robbing stores etc because they didn’t get their preferred verdict on a trial, that’s bad for the democrat party and obama.
From the mouth of the”black writer” comes this astonishing stupidity: a not-guilty verdict in this case could very easily turn the racial cold war into a very hot one.
RaceBoy further wants, make that demands, that Zimmerman be sacrificed (GUILTY OR NOT) to appease racist, hate filled blacks. He graciously would allow Zimmerman out of prison “within this decade” in “a deal”.
If not, RaceBoy threatens “Rodney King II”.
Those who, like RaceBoy, slept through Genocide 101 should remember that those wanting a race war are well advised to be in the majority.
Hint to RaceBoy, the racist writer - you are part of a small and easily identifiable minority.
Careful what you agitate for.
Just a reminder.
Mob rule. We either have laws applied equally and justly, or we have anarchy.
I can already see which way the black population wants to go.
The wicked can burn our cities to the ground. If we give into their extortion, then what good are those cities, anyway?
GOP-e, who are progressives, are too cowardly and disloyal to protect freedom and the rule of law.
That photo in your post #12 is sooo descriptive. Who took it and where, if I may ask?

The KKK was the terrorist wing of the Democrat Party. It looks like radical Democrat racists want to revive their early days and terrorize those who do not bow to their demands.
Prepare thyself - plagiarism is on the way.
Every John Derbyshire rule applies. Black in cities are always one spark away from racial murder. Their areas need to be cordoned off, cops heavily armed with orders to shoot to kill, and every white citizen must be armed if in public.
Nope but buying bear guard sized cans of pepper spray & while your at it BLOAT would be a pretty good idea .
ps don’t forget a gas mask for when you have to use the pepper spray ,it will come in handy .
Completely agree. I’ve been stocking up on ammo most of my life, but got REALLY ambitious when obama got elected. But I do fail to understand why a small minority (13%-?) would choose to antagonize a HEAVILY armed majority that can recognize them so readily....
Have your guns loaded. I am sick of being threatened.
No injustice no peace?
I didn't know there was a Great Wall of LA.
sounds like a threat....I lived through the 60’s same stuff happened....its just watch your back time...
Based on what? All the evidence says this was self-defense and everything out of Benjamin Crumps mouth has been lies.
...GET A ROPE....
Ah, well, that’s what tear gas, batons and rubber bullets are for.
Now its important for America to vote the communist out, before he destroys the greatest nation in history.
Enough with the guilt complex."
Right On. After 9/11 all Americans should know to support the Constitution and to coalesce to stop Jihad.
>Never let a crisis (or a made up one) go to waste: Eric Holder<
FYI - I think Rahm Emanuel made this statement, not Eric Holder.
Meanwhile, Remington Arms added a third shift at their Lonoke factory.
Man I hate $&#^ing Mongorians!
What do they want?
The trial goes well ‘for them’ and they riot, a la OJ
The trial goes poorly ‘for them’ and they riot because they didn’t get what they want.
How many men, families and futures were destroyed in the Civil War?
How much has the ‘War on Poverty’ cost?
How many Blacks have been promoted over Whites, gotten scholarships over Whites, gotten jobs over Whites, not been fired because they are Black, yadda yadda yadda.
How many freebies from the government have they/do they get?
How many bought houses on NiNJA loans?
On and on and on.
They commit crimes they are not prosecuted for. They kill each other over ridiculous things. They think they are owed.....for what exactly?
In the present economic environment, the angry Black man or the Black woman neck thing, yelling, is BS.
How much money do they think they need from us? Do we see any Black nations or celebrities doling out funds to the American poor? Do Whites have traditional White colleges?
Blacks think violence solves something.
Well, all righty then.
Absolute Horse Hillery!
Any chance they can find to loot hard working Americans.
One final point: what does it say of Blacks that they advocate for insurrection if they do not get their ‘street justice’?
I understand vendetta very well.
Knights learned to be polite on the road and to practice civility so that they wouldn’t try to kill each other all the time.
virtually all Hispanics are mixed.
Oh, right. Thanks.
Isn’t Rahm the one that looks like Howard on the old Andy Griffith show? Dead ringer if I recall.
They need this riot in early October. That’s their plan.
“Mansfield Frazier, an excellent black writer,...In it [his column] he concludes that Zimmerman, for the good of the country should quietly accept a plea deal that has him back on the street within this decade.
Really??? “For the good of the country...” ??? And facts be damned in the jury trial if he should be acquitted???
How patriotic of Frazier/ sarc
Bring it on, lets get it over with, who do you think is going to lose if they do riot?
Question:
I’d really like a 3D big screen TV.
[my Samsung LED Smart TV is nice but it’s not 3D]
Is there any chance I can put on a hoodie, yell “Justice for Trayvon” a couple times and get myself something nice too and they won’t notice me?
Especially if white liberal neighborhoods are within the war zone.
Magic?
Nobody sane will want to open a business there. Literally, there goes the neighborhood. People will have to travel miles to get groceries.
The lying media.....
This is what the media and Obama want “DIVISION.” OBAMA WILL THEN HAVE AN EXCUSE TO IMPLEMENT MARTIAL LAW and next watch the fireworks!
They can burn Seattle - I’m not using it.
The democrats have used blacks despicably forever. They were finally successful at destroying them as a functioning, able-bodied race with the Great Society programs that penalized marriage and monogamy and keeping an intact family. The statistics prove it and can be correlated easily to the great societal programs. The result is they’ve aborted a ton of their own children, while the white liberals make money off them for murdering their own progeny and laugh about it. The ones that survive birth generally now grow up without a good male role model around and go feral and gravitate towards acceptance by other males (gangs) and get into fights and murder other blacks over the slightest thing. The women generally cash in on babymaking by as many different guys as possible because they get rewarded for not having a married husband.
And the democrats orchestrated all of this. Fed it to the blacks as wanting to “help” them because the evil republicans won’t do all of this for them. Perhaps because we were warning this was the kind of results that would occur ever since they were proposed by the liberals.
It’s sick what the left has done to the blacks. The final endgame that is coming up, it appears the liberals are fomenting the race issue to “unleash” the blacks against the rest of society. That’s all the left has ever done, is use blacks to their advantage and exploit them. The KKK never really left the democrat party. That’s for damn sure.
****All righty then. Lets just abandon the trial and throw him to the baying mobs. ***
If he is guilty by the evidence he should suffer the penalty. If he is innocent he should go free.
The courts should not be held hostage by the baying mob.
Well DUH. Of course there will be rioting if Zimmerman were to be acquitted. That is why florida officials will see to it that Zimmerman spends enough time to soothe the outrage of America’s biggest mistake.
KKK never really left the democrat party. Thats for damn sure.
Africa is being recreated in America.
I’m no longer all that impressed by threats of rioting.
Let justice be served impartially, and if some groupthink entitlement mentality leads to rioting, then so be it.
Blackmail by black male has lost it’s mojo.
One final point: what does it say of Blacks that they advocate for insurrection if they do not get their street justice?

Why shouldn’t they? It works for Moslems...
sounds like a threat....I lived through the 60s same stuff happened....its just watch your back time...
Was race violence was limited to the cities back then? I’m just thinking at that time segregation arrangements had not been totally changed like they are today. From what I had passed on, only whites within reach had to be concerned about black violence back then. Is that what you witnessed?
