Zimmerman Protesters Take Over FL Gov's Office
Breitbart ^ | 7/16/13 | Lee Stranahan,

Posted on 07/16/2013 11:17:48 AM PDT by Nachum

From Lee Stranahan, Breitbart News: A coalition put together by Dream Defenders took over Florida Gov. Rick Scott's office in Tallahassee on Tuesday to demand a special legislative session that they say will address "the issues at the center of the Trayvon Martin tragedy." The coalition contends that "stand your ground vigilantism, racial profiling and a war on youth that paints us as criminals and funnels us out of schools and funnels us out of schools and into prison" is part of the culture that lead to the tragedy. Governor Scott was out of the office and not expected to return today. Dream Defenders says it plans to occupy the office as long as needed. The group has engaged in sit-ins in the past that have lasted three days.

Turn off the power, shut down the air conditioning and turn off the plumbing. Let them sit there as long as they’d like.

The Governor can function in a state office building until they are out and the mess is cleaned up.

..the issues at the center of the Trayvon Martin tragedy...

Issues like the theft of women's jewelry and the illegal possession,and use,of an intoxicating substance?

What I want to know is who is paying these protestors to do this...

[somehow, I suspect the money is basically coming from us taxpayers]

Are these “protesters” being arrested? Taking over the Governor's office is NOT the place to occupy less you land you “lumbardo lardosis” in jail.

Ping to watch.

They are going to have their riots one way or another aren’t they? I wonder just how deep the organization of this growing insurrection goes?

“Dream Defenders”

That’s funny. You can put lipstick on a turd, but it’s still a turd.
