S. Fla. Students March for Trayvon (Truancy Okay with Miami School Officials)
Local 10 (abc station in Miami) ^ | 3/22/2012

Hundreds of students walked out of a South Florida high school, and thousands of protesters are expected in Sanford on Thursday to call for the arrest of a neighborhood watch captain accused of fatally shooting an unarmed 17-year-old South Florida boy.

Police said George Zimmerman, 28, fatally shot Trayvon Martin last month. Zimmerman claimed self-defense and was not arrested or charged in the case.

Hundreds of students left Carol City High School and walked down streets in the area in support of Martin and in protest of the lack of an arrest.

I reported this on another thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2862404/posts

But it wasn't allowed to stick around in News, I guess because I reported it as an eyewitness and didn't have a "link".

Here is a link.

I hope the neighborhood area around Mr Z’s home and his home are well-protected.

I noticed the Rev. Al’s Mother died in Dothan, Alabama today. Interesting that Sharpton was already in Florida. I guess he will take off some time from inciting riots to bury her.

Obama may be succeeding where Charles Manson failed.

I think they already have a strategy to do so. This story will easily be in the news until November. The manufactured outrage will not crescendo immediately, as this needs to be played for 6+ months - rather, it will be a steady drip.

http://www.examiner.com/charleston-conservative-in-charleston-sc/zimmerman-was-on-the-ground-being-punched-when-he-shot-trayvon-martin?cid=PROD-redesign-right-next

On March 16th, the Sanford police department released new details to the Orlando Sentinel. Once again, these details have been ignored or changed by the media.

1. The witness reports that George Zimmerman was on the ground and Trayvon is on top of him punching him.
2. The witness says that George Zimmerman was screaming and yelling for help.
3. Police arrive and find Zimmerman bleeding on his face and the back of his head. He also has had grass stains on his back. All this confirms the story told by Zimmerman and the witness.
4. Police play the 911 tape for Trayvon Martin’s father, who tells police that the voice screaming is not the voice of his son.

Martins Father has now recanted and says it is his son screaming.
Why bother to have a trial, the media has already convicted the guy?
Never let a crisis go to waste....hmmm

I spoke with a guy yesterday that is a retired cop here in Des Moines and he said that when they did a bit of digging in Tryvon’s past they found that the reason he was suspended from school and sent to his dads house was because the dear little innocent angel has been involved in gang activity in his home city.

Wonder why the media doesn’t report anything about that?

I can’t say for sure that this is 100% true, but the guy who spoke to me about it has connections in the police department here and it is known in police channels that this is what they found. No wonder Tryvon’s mom and dad were mad that the police did a background check and drug screening of him after the incident.

Wonder if any of this will come out before they hang Zimmerman?

Why is this such big news?
Hispanic people kill black people all the time.

What about all the unarmed blacks that are gunned down daily in the ghettos? Will Sharpton not march for them?

It only concerns these A-holes, when it involves cross race against blacks violence. I am so sick of this crap.

You think?

The only thing that delayed this (shooting happened Feb 26) was Slut-gate. They had to back-burner it for a few weeks.

If Obama were a decent person and “post racial”, he would call on Holder’s people to go back to their homes and let the law figure this out.

Exactly. Then they set a white boy on fire or shoot a Korean shop owner. That’s the way these things work.
It’s a, what do you call it, one of them—a rite of spring, a `March Hare’ thing for people who sit on street curbs until 2 in the morning and then roll out of the sack about noon.
Nothing to see here, unless your approval rating is down around 40% or you make your living race-baiting. Or you wake up and say, “It be noon awready?”
