You can bet Al Sharpton has a bailout plan when this little war he is so carefully crafting goes awry.

Everyone I talk to is convinced there will be civil unrest when Zimmerman walks. Everyone I talk to is armed and ready.

Obama wants riots because voters will be frightened and will believe only Obama can restore peace. Clinton was our first black president, after all.

Riots reduce support for Bush president in dead heat with Clinton, Perot Poll shows big lead decreased sharply

George Zimmerman is Hispanic, Caucasian, and Black. He isn’t all white, just as Obama isn’t all white. They are TRYING to stir up a race war that is certain.

There is ONE RACE = the HUMAN RACE!

There’s one big difference between the King and Z-M cases—no tape of an alleged beating for the media to loop endlessly. That means the cue will drag through the courts for while and may be gradually defused and diffused (yes, I did deliberately use two different verbs with similar spellings to describe what may happen and what the FL authorities probably desire wii happen).

The irony is that Zimmerman would be considered black if he were not Hispanic. The Homer Plessy of the famous Plessy vs. Ferguson case (which established the "separate but equal" doctrine) was one-eighth black and seven-eighths white. Zimmerman is at least one-eighth black and one-half white (or not much more).

Does the prosecutor think she can pack the jury with people already convinced of Zimmerman's guilt? It worked with the Scooter Libby case.

The sixth amendment is supposed to guarantee the accused a right to an impartial jury and compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his defense. Will that apply when it the state rather than the federal government prosecuting him? What if the eyewitness who saw the beating and ran inside to call 9-1-1 is scared off by the mob and won't appear in court?

Sharpton can be counted among the true masters at manipulating the media

"Masters" is a misleading category for a parasitical agitator, who simply exploits the contemporary state of the mass media in America--i.e., analytically dysfunctional.

A rat that gets into an unprotected food locker, is not a master at break-ins.

The problem with Sharpton & the media involves two phenomena:

1. The Leftist orientation of those graduating from major American "Institutions Of Higher Education," which instills in most journalists the mythology that holds traditional White Americans responsible for most or all of the problems of other peoples, both at home & abroad.

2. The concomitant "dumbing" down of the verbal arts in America, which leaves even the minority of journalists who would like to be more objective, without the self-confidence to really challenge the Leftist element, which is committed to an insane agenda of Egalitarian make believe & blame (always blame of those who succeed, for every problem of those who do not.)

The "Rev." Al just knows how his 'bread is buttered,' so to speak.

That may or may not be what he wants, but if there are riots, the independent vote will desert him and he will lose big.

Another black initiated race riot in Los Angeles would actually be funny at this point.

After the Rodney King riots, the LAPD spent millions of dollars preparing for the next riots, procuring an assortment of stuff and making extensive and authoritarian plans for dealing with rioters.

And that is just the police. On the first day of the riots, the adjacent Korean neighborhood was trashed by rioters. But by the second day, the Koreans were armed to the teeth and more than happy to greet any rioter who came back with a barrage of gunfire. None were foolish enough to do so.

This is the point. They may want to “riot for Trayvon” all they want, as long as they only injure each other, and burn and loot each others property. The rest of society has had it up to here with their “zany antics”, and have no more toleration for it.

Oddly enough, I think a large part of the black community knows this as well, so will not participate, leaving only the fanatical and criminal.

The motivation is the looting - free stuff.

I remember the 1992 riots, women get scared and just want the riots to stop. Since the liberals control such things, women back the liberals.

Perot lost points after the 1992 riots, too.

He should already be arrested for already starting a race war. Look at all the Trayvon motivated black on white crime.

In this era if there are riots they will be filmed, written about, twittered, and posted on the internet out of the control of the media narrative. Quite a bit of the film will be created by the rioters themselves. There won’t be any way to disguise it as a noble reaction to injustice as was claimed in the L.A riots.

Given the demographics, a Black agitator choosing LA as the venue for a race riot - based on a Hispanic/Black incident - does not seem a particularly smart move.

You just can’t fix stupid.

No one believed that in 1992.

When the fear set in, and every city in America became afraid (for example, Phoenix had mini-riots) the women don't care about why, they just pick a protector. It's like the Stockholm Syndrome.

On the other hand, maybe Obama already knows he will lose. He would really love big riots in that scenario.

I remember a video of a Korean shop owner liberally slinging 9mm rounds at looters with a Beretta 92FS. I think that was before the high cap magazine ban in California.

Isn’t there a law about inciting a riot?

“Why Los Angeles should be chosen as the venue for such an event may at first seem a mystery, but whatever one may think of him, Sharpton can be counted among the true masters at manipulating the media”

Yes, he is a master, with a few reservations: the media is specifically vulnerable to his type, and there’s no way Sharpton would be as successful with the same talent, skills, and intelligence were he, for instance, a neo-nazi. That being said, the choice of L.A. isn’t a mystery to me, though I was unaware until now of the riots’ anniversary. Because anniversary or no, people still associate L.A. with the riots so long as you give them a nudge by talking about racial justice and police incompetence.

More than that, L.A. is a good place to rabble-rouse apart from the riots. There’s lots of black people and lots and lots of media there.
