Chanting "Justice for Trayvon," some 500 demonstrators marched from the Frank M. Johnson Federal Courthouse up legendary Dexter Avenue Saturday in a noon time rally that coincided with at least 101 across the country.

Organized by Rev. Al Sharpton's National Action Network (NAN), the Montgomery event included a keynote address by Sharpton's brother, Pastor Kenneth Sharpton Glasgow

Interesting from the comments to the article above:

It is complicated. Allegedly, Glasgow is the son of Tina and all sharpton's father, al sharpton, Sr. Tina is a sister to al sharp ton, Jr. Allegedly, Glasgow is both nephew and brother to al sharpton, Jr.

Oh, that's why he's kept out of the media for the most part...

The good news for all concerned: TRAYVON GOT ALL THE JUSTICE HE DESERVED!!

[Common Sense 101]

No justice, no TV’s...

Sounds an awful lot like some form of incest to me.

Still it is always nice to read about keeping the family race baiting job in the family.

With Obama in the White House stirring up trouble among the races, I am sure the family has a great future.

Well lucky us. In the last few months we have had Angela Davis and Louis Farrakhan visit our fair state. We obviously need better border security.

I don’t think Trayvon gives a rip at this time.

"WHEREAS, Ada Sharpton is survived by her four children, Thomas Jeffer- son "Sonny" Glasgow, Ernestine "Tina" Glasgow, Charidean "Joy" Sharpton and the Reverend Al Sharpton; 10 grandchildren; and a host of great- grandchildren, relatives and friends;....."

Half sister to the "rev".

It seems pretty clear now that less than 50,000 people showed up in total to all 100 of these "Justice for Trayvon" marches/rallies/pogroms nationwide combined.

How are Sharpton, Jackson, Gregory et al. leaders of a demographic of 36 million people when they can only get one tenth of one percent of that demographic to show up on a weekend for an "important" cause with celebrity endorsers?

Around four to six weeks ago...in Birmingham...a mother was returning to the house where her two twin sons were (they were around 17 years old each and gamers). The house had been broken into that afternoon by some local thugs. Mom pulls up...sees the intruders on the porch, and stops...reverses and tries to leave. Thugs shoot mom....hitting her, and paralyzing her for life. She will live.

Thugs went back into the house and shot dead both twins.

Thugs? Well....the number one guy had been in prison for a manslaughter charge (he’d actually killed someone but got off lightly), and got released in the past year. He’d assaulted someone else in recent months and just gotten bailed out.

No one in Birmingham will talk much on this episode...two kids dead and the mother never to walk again, with the thug likely to walk freely in a dozen years again. It’s the same old story....prosecution guys won’t use the full power necessary to preserve society for everyone. No rallies or bigwigs to say something about the society that we live in.

Take the '500', minus out the media and those who were simply curious or happened to be passing-by, and you're left with a few dozen at most. FAIL.

Hahaha! Can I swipe that?

Don’t forget also to subtract government infiltrators and paid protestors from various groups.

Sad, as “The Trayvon” received “Justice” at the hands of George Zimmerman on the night in question.

Wonder why Rev Al doesn’t say,

“Whoever believes in me is my mother and brother and sister”
