Community agitators at work - led by the Agitator-In-Chief. He learned well from Alinsky.

Head of the DO"J" (hero of al Qaeda and terrorists worldwide):
"Zimmerman was treated like any other cracker
with a gutter Jew-name.
The cracker was Koran shy, and now he must die."
Here is the Judicial Watch Press Release:
Tell me something please. Where do you go when the law breaks the law and wipes with the Constitution? Who do you call when a cop violates your civil rights or the law? Sure has been a lot of that kind of thing going on lately.
Just on Rush today.
Document: DOJ Community Relations Service was deployed to Sanford, FL, to provide technical assistance for the preparation of possible marches and rallies related to the fatal shooting of a 17-year-old African American male.
Washington, D.C. Judicial Watch announced today that has obtained documents in response to local, state, and federal records requests revealing that a little-known unit of the Department of Justice (DOJ), the Community Relations Service (CRS), was deployed to Sanford, FL, following the Trayvon Martin shooting to help organize and manage rallies and protests against George Zimmerman.
JW filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requested with the DOJ on April 24, 2012; 125 pages were received on May 30, 2012. JW administratively appealed the request on June 5, 2012, and received 222 pages more on March 6, 2013. According to the documents:
March 25 27, 2012, CRS spent $674.14 upon being deployed to Sanford, FL, to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies related to the shooting and death of an African- American teen by a neighborhood watch captain.
March 25 28, 2012, CRS spent $1,142.84 in Sanford, FL to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies related to the shooting and death of an African-American teen by a neighborhood watch captain.
March 30 April 1, 2012, CRS spent $892.55 in Sanford, FL to provide support for protest deployment in Florida.
March 30 April 1, 2012, CRS spent an additional $751.60 in Sanford, FL to provide technical assistance to the City of Sanford, event organizers, and law enforcement agencies for the march and rally on March 31.
April 3 12, 2012, CRS spent $1,307.40 in Sanford, FL to provide technical assistance, conciliation, and onsite mediation during demonstrations planned in Sanford.
April 11-12, 2012, CRS spent $552.35 in Sanford, FL to provide technical assistance for the preparation of possible marches and rallies related to the fatal shooting of a 17 year old African American male. expenses for employees to travel, eat, sleep?
From a Florida Sunshine Law request filed on April 23, 2012, JW received thousands of pages of emails on April 27, 2012, in which was found an email by Miami-Dade County Community Relations Board Program Officer Amy Carswell from April 16, 2012: Congratulations to our partners, Thomas Battles, Regional Director, and Mildred De Robles, Miami-Dade Coordinator and their co-workers at the U.S. Department of Justice Community Relations Service for their outstanding and ongoing efforts to reduce tensions and build bridges of understanding and respect in Sanford, Florida following a news article in the Orlando Sentinel about the secretive peacekeepers.
In reply to that message, Battles said: Thank you Partner. You did lots of stuff behind the scene to make Miami a success. We will continue to work together. He signed the email simply Tommy.
Carswell responded: Thats why we make the big bucks.
Set up under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the DOJs CRS, the employees of which are required by law to conduct their activities in confidence, reportedly has greatly expanded its role under President Barack Obama. Though the agency claims to use impartial mediation practices and conflict resolution procedures,
press reports along with the documents obtained by Judicial Watch suggest that the unit deployed to Sanford, FL, took an active role in working with those demanding the prosecution of Zimmerman.
On April 15, 2012, during the height of the protests, the Orlando Sentinel reported, They [the CRS] helped set up a meeting between the local NAACP and elected officials that led to the temporary resignation of police Chief Bill Lee according to Turner Clayton, Seminole County chapter president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The paper quoted the Rev. Valarie Houston, pastor of Allen Chapel AME Church, a focal point for protestors, as saying They were there for us, after a March 20 meeting with CRS agents.
Separately, in response to a Florida Sunshine Law request to the City of Sanford, Judicial Watch also obtained an audio recording of a community meeting held at Second Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church in Sanford on April 19, 2012. The meeting, which led to the ouster of Sanfords Police Chief Bill Lee, was scheduled after a group of college students calling themselves the Dream Defenders barricaded the entrance to the police department demanding Lee be fired. According to the Orlando Sentinel, DOJ employees with the CRS had arranged a 40-mile police escort for the students from Daytona Beach to Sanford.
These documents detail the extraordinary intervention by the Justice Department in the pressure campaign leading to the prosecution of George Zimmerman, said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. My guess is that most Americans would rightly object to taxpayers paying government employees to help organize racially-charged demonstrations.
I think it’s safe to conclude that the Federal government is the enemy of the people (as if any more evidence were needed).
Can’t wait to see what the Republican “leaders” in the Congress do with this one.
You can take the community organizer/agitator out of Chicago, but you can’t take the comunity organizer out of the community organizer.
WHAT THE EFFING-F ???????????????????????????????
Yes that picture pretty much says it all.
COMMUNITY-ORGANIZER-IN-CHIEF knows how to do nothing else
Zimmerman should SUE OBAMA PERSONALLY for this!!!!!!!!!!!!
America is waiting for accountability to happen in response to the many scandals. When that NEVER happens, it becomes clear Congress is irrelevant.
All I want to know is how do I get a flat screen TV out of this?
Do?? LOL surely you jest.
