(Miami-Dade County, FL) - The Miami-Dade County Community Relations Board (CRB) and the Miami-Dade Youth Commission will brief the community regarding legal issues in the trial of George Zimmerman for the killing of Miami-Dade teenager Trayvon Martin. Information will also be shared about activities being planned around Miami-Dade county both before and after a verdict is announced. The briefing will take place Tuesday, July 9, 2013 from 6 to 8 p.m. the North Dade Regional Library, 2455 N.W. 183rd Street, Miami, FL 33145.

Representatives of the CRB and the Wilkie D. Ferguson Bar Association will be part of a panel describing the legal issues and procedures. They will also answer questions from community members regarding the trial. Miami-Dade faith leaders, advocates and law enforcement representativeshavealso committed to sharing information about other events and activities that are being planned to engage the public as the trial nears conclusion and once a verdict is announced. The shooting of the unarmed Miami Gardens teenager by a man in Sanford, Florida in February 2012, sparked an outpouring of public comment and large demonstrations across the nation. Tens of thousands of Miami-Dade teenagers took part in rallies and marches around 31 senior and middle schools in the community.

“The tragic death of 17-year-old high school student Trayvon Martin has raised many questions and concerns among young people in the community where he lived,” said Dr. Walter T. Richardson, CRB Chair. “The ongoing legal proceedings against the man accused of killing Trayvon Martin has re-focused back public attention on the case and issues of intense concern to this community. The briefing on the trial will keep our youth and community informed.”

The CRB works to prevent and reduce community tensions and build bridges of mutual understanding, cooperation and respect among our diversepopulations.TheCRB and YouthCommission areworking to promote non-violent responses to the killing of Trayvon Martin and are engaging key organizations and leaders to empower and protect our communities, particularly the youth.

What an indictment of the Miami media AND the obvious unwillingness of the urban population to use their God-given brains to apply facts and logic to this case.

Planned activities should include machine guns mounted on buildings and an order that Looters and rioters will be shot without warning.

You're exactly right. If guilty, the celebrants will smash windows and loot and if not guilty, they'll smash windows and loot. The sooner everyone stops touting the ‘rioting’ meme and speaks truthfully that it's an opportunity to loot, the clearer it becomes that this isn't really about GZ, it's about the continually aggrieved.

... activities being planned around Miami-Dade county both before and after a verdict is announced.
Like the National Guard will be standing by; rioters will be dealt with severely; looters will be shot, etc?
Didn't think so.

Riots will only last for less than 30 short minutes, put down by police SWAT teams.

If there’s going to be Knock Out King and Polar Bear games played, I hope no one except DWL (disingenuous white liberals) are stupid enough to go out there. Let the DWLs reap what they sow.

So I’m guessing, I picked the wrong month to relocate to Tallahassee?

Well said. That reminds me of the Katrina aftermath, and DWLs defending the looters as just trying to survive, when they were hauling large screen plasma teevees through the streets.

Watching local Miami coverage of this trial has been laughable...so invested are the “journalists” covering the story in the lie that Trayvon was a saint and Zimmerman a monster, that MOST of the stories have ignored the weak case against the defendant....

As a result, most viewers who rely upon the liberal media will be STUNNED by a verdict exonerating Zimmerman.

Absolutely right. But you know, I say riot away. This nation has lived in fear of the perpetually pissed off class for far too long.

If anyone that has even the remotest sense of self-preservation, they should be carrying a firearm and at least one extra magazine. And surrounding themselves with friends who carry. Back in my infantry days, we called that “interlocking fields of fire.”

If they are not, shame on them; the malcontents have been warning of this for months...
