Albany 'Justice for Trayvon' attendees call for discussions about race

The Albany protest, staged outside the Federal Courthouse on Broadway, drew some 200 people, many of whom carried signs and chanted the slogan ‘no justice no peace.’....
.
.
Zimmerman was acquitted of murder and manslaughter by a Florida jury, largely due to the circumstances under which prosecutors were bound by Florida’s controversial ‘stand your ground’ laws, which sanction and expand the use of deadly force in cases of so-called self-defense.

Martin had been walking along a street in Sanford, Florida; in an area patrolled by neighborhood volunteer Zimmerman.

The two became engaged in confrontation, the details of which remain somewhat unclear, but which ended with Zimmerman fatally shooting Martin in the chest.

"so called" self defense? SYG? details unclear? even at this point with the prosecution/LSM admitting certain things? Unbelievably ignorant reporting from Mr. Sweeney here re: the facts of the Zimmerman trial. He obviously didn't watch a minute of it and instead relied on LSM narratives.

I wonder if a single one of the protesters pictured would not call the police if they saw a Trayvon loitering in their neighborhood. F'in phonies.

OMG how funny, they are all white!

On the list of “Cities Vying To Become The Next Detroit.”

They all look like they’ve never seen the right side of a job. On government benefits most likely.

To paraphrase Redd Foxx as Fred G. Sanford: “You ain’t just a dummy; you a stupid dummy!”

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Sadly, the left doesn’t want “discussions” about race. They want to lecture everyone one regarding their opinion on race relations with no rebuttal.

**discussions about race**

More bashing of whitey.

“The two became engaged in confrontation, the details of which remain somewhat unclear...”

B.S. they will continue to say the details are unclear until they get the answer they want.

[joethedrummer]

Yup. They don’t want “discussion”. They want a beat-down.

I can’t stop laughing over the idiot holding the GUN CONTROL SAVES LIVES sign.
I’d like to ask him, “Have you ever heard of the American cities of Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, Washington or New Orleans, among too many others?”
Here is the evidence of how well “strict GUN control” works in the real world.

Dirty hippies. Drop them all off in North Philly.

OMG how funny, they are all white!

They missed the turn for the anti war rally.

Excuse me for asking a dumb question, but wasn’t the Trial of George Zimmerman precisely about “Justice” for Trayvon??

Yes, that stupid sign jumped out at me as well. Obviously held by a person whose agenda trumps the facts.

[yldstrk]

I also hate facial hair on a girl lol!

[N. Theknow]

How about a discussion into the facts of the case and especially into the REAL Trayvon instead of the caricature the MSM has made up and foisted on the ill-informed dopes that make up these faux justice demonstrations.

That’s super sexy! /s
