Typical sample of today’s news http://dcist.com/2012/04/metrorail_assault_victim_says_trans.php

The oddest thing here is that Zimmerman led a protest in 2010/11 against the local cops for a coverup of a beating by a policeman’s son of a homeless black man. Extremely odd thing for a racist police-loving wannabee to do.

Even more oddly, IMO, the police assigned two or more of the cops Zimmerman had demanded be disciplined to investigate his shooting of Martin. Again, these policemen would seem likely to be biased against Z, not in his favor.

Very strange thing about Wikipedia. There are no separate articles for either Trayvon or George, only a “shooting of Trayvon Martin” one. Usually when a person hits the news he pops up on wiki within hours with his own article.

Jesse Jackson once said on national television he felt relief when walking on a dark street at night when those approaching him were white.

Too often, society equates black skin with criminality.

No, society equates criminal activity with criminality.

Now if someone wants to have a rally supporting George Zimmerman, I will be there. If it is mostly Hispanic, so what? Crime statistics do not show me to be in grave danger from that population.

You nailed it.

"Why are white protestors largely missing in action at the Trayvon Martin rallies?"

You have to be blind to not notice that there are two sides to this story. Thus, the protesters are blind.

Color blind, that is. (Blinded by their color.)

Whites Mostly Missing at Trayvon Rallies

Perhaps the majority of white folks are not stupid enough to inject themselves into a crowd of blacks riled up on racism charges led by a media who have stirred this pot to begin with for a juicy 5 o'clock story?

Naw, that'd be to simplistic an answer.

Maybe the majority of whites will start to give a $#!t when the black community decides to give a $#!t about their own black on black violence first?
Oh, I'm going to he!! for that one.

Some black folks in Sanford suggest that many whites are supportive, but do not want to display any public sentiments for fear of being called a “ni**er lover.”

I think it is because most Whites feel Trayvon Martin was a worthless thug who attacked the wrong person. Plus they don't feel like getting mugged at a rally.
