My prediction:

Zimmerman will be found innocent when the FACTS are investigated. Once the FACTS are know the MSM will go completely quiet. The race baiters will move on to their next assignment.

for our beloved HS principal who was unjustly fired by the corrupt school system in Atlanta

That would fall under my "school is a Marxist hellhole" exception, as "the district is trying to ruin the school when it might have been slightly okay."

I'm a fan of self-defense, but I don't know enough about the particular situation to reach a conclusion. However, I'm a bigger fan of common sense, which says that students skipping school will do absolutely nothing to un-dead the dead person, or to evaluate the facts so that the proper authorities can reach a correct conclusion on what to do going forward.

You forgot to include the “injustice” riots where only Air Jordans and flat screen TV’s will fix their sorrow.

I dunno. The last time that sort of thing happened, Watts burned and Reginald Denny became a household name.

This is being ginned up big time by the usual suspects.

Our enemies are practicing various tactics.

Remember last year when a lot of flash mobs appeared and robbed stores?
Remember the OWS crowds in many major cities?
Now see how national outrage can be ginned up over a small incident which may quite likely be justified self-defense?

All of these tactics can be useful if the Power Elite need a crisis either leading up to a November election, or perhaps a crisis subsequent to a heart-breaking Nov election loss.

The political manipulators need to make sure they know how the buttons can be pushed. They are testing the machine.

Nope! Should Zimmerman be found not guilty when the facts are presented, Holder’s goons will grab him on some trumped up charge. He is about to learn that you don’t mess with a protected spieces.The hard way. If the dead guy had been White, the case would be closed by now.

The only legitimate purpose of a walkout is to provide attention to a potentially unjust situation.

This story has way too much attention as it is.

To them it’s all about ‘skin’ color, and nothing else. If there’s a crime that’s been committed, then let the local authorities investigate and prosecute if they have enough evidence.

What about all the black people that are getting killed DAILY by other black people in Philadelphia, Chicago, New York?

Are they doing anything for their lost lives?

Are they out marching for their lost lives?

Are they yelling for their lost lives?

They are hypocrites!

Again, not mentioned were George Zimmerman's injuries and witness accounts of Mr. Martin being on top of Mr. Zimmerman and punching him were also ignored.

Where ARE they mentioned? Do you have a source? From all I've read, Mr. Z was going about his amateur police business; and followed, accosted and killed an unarmed young man without any compelling reason. Which at best is negligent homicide.

Dang it’s a nice day outside. 80 degrees, sunny, I sure would like to go golfing. I wonder if I could walk out of work “in support of Treyvon”!

The reporters are forgetting their youth. What student, given the chance, will not use any excuse to not attend classes. I’m old, but I remember my High School day. I can just see the conversation. “We’re walking out cause of that guy that got shot!” “What was his name?” “I dunno, but lets go!” “Okay, see you at the mall.” I’m sure some feel strongly about it, but how many really know what it is about?
