If the Sharpton’s and Shabazz’s were concerned about black homicide, why not look at the problems in Chicago? When it’s statistically more dangerous to walk the streets of Chicago than to serve in a combat zone, I think it might be a problem. Instead they latch on to a death that’s not black on black and fan the flames. The Zimmerman trial is all about creating racial tensions from our street agitator in Chief. It’s all he knows how to do. It’s theater designed to fill the news with a story that diverts attention from the real problems, like employment, healthcare, etc. It is truly disgusting and I am willing to bet that Holder will pursue a civil right case for the express purpose of keeping this in the news. They are desperate and have no moral grounding.
