Communists gather to protest on eve of Trayvon Martin trial
The Orlando Sentinel ^ | June 9, 2013 | Ludmilla Lelis

Posted on 06/11/2013 7:06:25 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

A small group of protesters chanted slogans demanding justice for Trayvon Martin outside the Seminole County Courthouse this afternoon, just as the George Zimmerman trial is set to start this week.

The protesters, which numbered about eight, wore hoodies on Sunday and plan to return Monday for another protest in what some groups have organized as "National Hoodie Day." The group includes members of the Revolutionary Communist Party and the "Stop Mass Incarceration Network."

Diaz continued: "Zimmerman should be convicted. If he walks free, that sends a message to any racist vigilante out there that if they want to kill a young person of color, that it's free and the legal system will have their backs."(continued)

Should tell everyone just who supports lynching George Zimmerman

These Hate Bigots cannot accept that Zimmerman is 1/4 black, 1/2 Hispanic. That is the real racism here

If Zimmerman wailed, he must not be jailed.

Does 911 tape prove George Zimmerman acted in self-defense?

Have them stand outside in 100+ heat for 8 hours protesting.

“...demanding justice for Trayvon Martin ...”

From what I seen and heard, he got justice already.

the struggles of injustice against the whole system of mass incarceration of black and Latino youth

I think the trial is about how one particular "black youth" didn't think quite hard enough about his series of life choices ultimately resulting in an outcome worse than incarceration, my dear Ms. Diaz.

I heard on the local radio today that one of the people they interviewed for jury duty told them they watch Fox News all the time and did not appreciate the racial overtones in this case. LOL!!!!!

The communists will join in any type of protest hoping to recruit the protesters.

Young Black Girls: Share your Racial Profiling Story
Hello,

I am a writer for wonderful new magazine focused on the audience of young Black girls (18 and under). I would like to speak with you if you have a story to share about racial profiling: in school, your community, etc... The article will commemorate the tragedy of Trayvon Martin in 2012, with guidance for young Black women who often do not get as much attention for racial victimhood. Please email me if you have a story to share.

Peace and Blessings,
Kalisha Buckhanon (www.Kalisha.com)

The facts don't matter. The media has said that Zimmerman is a racist vigilante, and that's what the jury will vote on, not the evidence presented in the courtoom.

Zimmerman has a 6th-amendment right to be confronted with the witnesses against him (which pretty much starts and ends with Dee Dee) but the judge will probably decide that doesn't apply to racist vigilante defendants.

The local Communists (Students for a Democratic Society) have latched onto the Trayvon Martin case--at least I saw some posters they had put up calling for justice for Trayvon.

Jesse and Rev Al used to preach to blacks ‘jury nullification’ when blacks are on trial.

A hung jury would be ironic justice.

They’re doing a heck of a job shuffling the cards and stacking the jury as well.

Thus far in a county of 11% Black and 16% Hispanic, 3 of the 15 brought up have been Black, 0 of the 15 Hispanic, and 2 of 15 White males, and 12 of the 15 females — and they all lived under a rock and never heard or saw anything related to this case.

When an anti-incarceration group supports incarcerating someone, it pretty much destroys their cover. They’re just supporting eliminating the “prison industrial complex” because they are racists and want to see black criminals freed.

Yep and stacking the deck with just one stealth juror is all they will need.

Hmmm! The same degree of blackness as The One.

Oman's mother is Caucasian, that's the "maternal half". On the "fraternal half" there are four grand parents, three Arab (Semites) and one Negro. So that makes him 1/2 white, 3/8 Semite, and 1/8 black.

Providing the Kenyan myth is true, for all we know he was fathered by a space alien.

Regards,
GtG
