NAACP Claims Credit for Inciting Zimmerman Prosecution; Calls for Holder to Act
Breitbart ^ | July 13, 2013 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 07/15/2013 7:17:01 AM PDT by yoe

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) sent a message to supporters after George Zimmerman was acquitted of murder and manslaughter Saturday evening, asking them to sign a petition urging the Department of Justice to initiate a civil rights prosecution, and reminding them that the NAACP shared responsibility for Zimmerman's arrest and prosecution over the death of Trayvon Martin.

[snip]Notably, the email did not say Zimmerman was prosecuted for any probable cause.

[snip] The petition linked in the email is hosted on the NAACP's website, and calls upon Attorney General Eric Holder, the nation's chief law enforcement officer, to charge Zimmerman for violating Martin's right to life: "We ask that the Department of Justice file civil rights charges against Mr. Zimmerman for this egregious violation. Please address the travesties of the tragic death of Trayvon Martin by acting today.”

[snip] In any other circumstance, Zimmerman--a member of a minority group, a supporter of President Barack Obama, an activist for equal treatment by police--might have enjoyed the support and protection of the NAACP.

But because he was falsely characterized as "white," and the victim was clearly not, Zimmerman forfeited the right to equal treatment under the law, at least as far as the NAACP was concerned.

I hope Zimmerman’s lawyers take note and add the NAACP to their list of lawsuits.

0bama is just loving this...this is actually better than riots, because it can be turned into a festering, simmering stew of hate. Riots would, despite the destruction and probable loss of life, get some of the animus out.

To: pfflier; All

has the NAACP looking into the gang connection of Mr. Parks? Now that the criminal case is over, should not attention be directed to the gang nature and history of the family?

Did Ms. Fulton already lose her son to the gangster life long ago and that is part of the reason for the divorce?

I think we need a National Association for the Preservation of American Culture.

There needs to be a petition calling for the DOJ to not off the crap.

What’s the ratio of how many white people marching would it take to make a bigger impression than blacks marching?
