Pro-Trayvon Protesters Shut Down Sanford Police Department After Barricading Doors
Mediaite ^ | April 9, 2012 | James Crugnale

Protesters supporting Trayvon Martin shut down the Sanford Police Department on Monday after they barricaded the doors in an act of civil disobedience, The Orlando Sentinel’s Rene Stutzman and Bianca Prieto reports.

“The city of Sanford hopes the actions of the students will be as peaceful and orderly as the previous rallies and marches have been,” City Manager Norton Bonaparte, Jr. said in an email to the Orlando Sentinel. “We want to be accommodating to all our visitors proving they act in a manner that is respectful to the people of the city.”

Members of the US Department of Justice are also monitoring the scene.

The shutdown of the Sanford Police Department is the brainchild of the Dream Defenders, “a coalition of college students from across Florida who have marched and protested against the handling of the case by police.”

To see what "civil rights violation" charges they can manufacture against the Sanford PD.

Police inside? Sounds like false imprisonment. But then we are dealing with Holder’s people, so . . .

Is the Sanford Fire Department comfortable with blocking entrances and exits of public buildings?

Citizens have an obligation to be victims, because self-defense is too divisive.....and racist....

When these non violent types start shooting its going to be interesting. Who are the MSM going to blame then? Folks in the South carry...many of the instigators are not from the South and will not figure that into the equation when they get what they wish.

Nah, it’s just a black thang. They don’t even have to axs.

This is a pretty sad day when the cops aren’t allowed stand up and arrest these thugs for shutting down their own police department.
