A coalition of college students will spend the next three days marching about 40 miles between Daytona Beach and Sanford to protest the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

The group, which calls itself the Dream Defenders, said the march is a "stand against racial profiling, institutional racism and the legacy of violence that continues to plague young people of color."

I guess the facts that are coming out about this investigation are meaningless.

“Everyone in this country will be ruled by immigrants long before they are ruled by anyone associated with african roots.”

I heard that song sung in 2008.

I guess when you take basket weaving or womyn’s studies you have three days to march but no job prospects and $100,000 in student loan debt to look forward to.

“.... the legacy of violence that continues to plague young people of color.”

#####

So they’re protesting against their OWN pathologically savage “culture”.

considering that several MSM outlets are backing off from their “evidence” of George Zimmerman’s guilt, this is hilarious and sad at the same time.

And how many exactly does it take to make a coalition? Three, four, a dozen?

Of course they (the facts) are! Why would any liberal/leftist let facts get in the way of anything?

The most exercise these people will have had in a long time. I can’t believe they could be on their feet walking this long.

Expect a big dropoff for Saturday and Sunday marchers after today.

I can only imagine what kind of BIASED INFORMATION from the MSM about this case as been LEAKED INTO THEIR CLOSED MINDS. You can thank the socialist frauds at NBC, MSNBC, CNN, ABC and many other outlets for the RACIAL ANGLE to the shooting, when all evidence points to no such thing.

The sad thing is...back in the day there was no internet. There was no fox news. You never were told the other side. Seeing how the media lied and these idiots got so much of the information wrong makes me (sadly) question all that I thought I knew about Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, etc etc. THAT will be the real effect of these idiots cheering OJ getting off and saying Tawanna Brawly was telling the truth.

Its like the boy that cried wolf. Racism exists, but true racist acts will be harder to believe thanks to so many false charges.
