How taxpayers paid for DOJ unit to 'support protests after killing of Trayvon Martin'

Documents published online Wednesday by a conservative watchdog group show that the Community Relations Service, an arm of the U.S. Justice Department, spent taxpayer dollars to help organize and implement plans for the initial string of rallies in Sanford, Florida following the 2012 shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

The protests were openly hostile to George Zimmerman, the volunteer neighborhood watch organizer who killed Martin, 17, after a struggle. Zimmerman is currently on trial in a Florida courtroom, charged with second-degree murder.

(Rev. Al Sharpton (C) spoke at a 'Justice for Trayvon' rally along with Tracy Martin (R) and Sybrina Fulton (2nd L), parents of slain teenager Trayvon Martin, on March 22, 2012 )

(George Zimmerman, shown in an evidence photo with injuries he sustained during the confrontation that ended Trayvon Martin's life, is charged with second-degree murder)

(Thousands of posters were printed demanding Zimmerman's arrest for killing Martin. These signs were funded by the Service Employees International Union local 1199, a health care workers union)

(Trayvon Martin supporters marched before a town hall meeting about the shooting on March 26, 2012. Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson and NAACP president Benjamin Jealous all spoke at the event)

The agency's Florida activities did include providing 'technical assistance' to law enforcement and city managers in Sanford.

The Orlando Sentinel reported earlier in the same week that the DOJ's Community Relations Service 'helped set up a meeting between the local NAACP and elected officials that led to the temporary resignation of police Chief...'

The Sentinel also reported that Community Relations Service employees arranged a 40-mile police escort for students calling for the police chief's ouster who were traveling from Daytona Beach to Sanford.

RE :”Nobody is paying attention to you, because you are a bong-sucking, illiterate slob!!
Anyone wondering why we are called(and proven to be) the Stupid Party need only read this thread. : )”

HA-HA, remember when Spensors gifts sold real bongs?

If these guys were running a real war they would ignore real information on their enemies movements and strategies and instead just assume that they (enemy) plan on bombing themselves. Then when it ends in disaster cry ‘we were sold out again’

What good does Dems massive rioting in LA and other Dem areas do Obama and Dems when he is seen as responsible, after he said that Tayvon was like a son to him?

Who would support a gun ban after a show like that?

RE :”I believe that will follow the riots which have been set in place and can’t be stopped.
It’s during these so called peaceful protest that I believe there is going to be 1 or more IED set off, in one or more cities where the protest are taking place.
Of course they will be set off AFTER the so called Black leaders are a safe distance away.
The bombings will of course be blamed on “crazy ass crackers” wanting to hold the Blackman down.
That’s when all hell is going to break loose in every city in the US.”

Wow, that's exactly what happened after the verdict. How could you know? HOW??? The Seer speaks.

How many more examples of Obama and his evil regime do Americans need before realizing progressives are destroying law-abiding conservative America? They are busily chipping away at America's foundations. Their insidious presence is in every facet of the government...they are not afraid to shove their agenda down our collective throats.
