Any charge against an innocent man is "overcharging" him, Noah.

Or maybe it has to do with threats or rioting from the black community.

I guess Zimmerman was supposed to have waited until Martin beat him to death or brain damage before he was justified in defending himself. If only he had allowed his skull to be bashed in a little bit more, he would have a case. /sarc

Maybe author Noah needs to chat with the new black cats:

In preparation for the possibility of an acquittal of George Zimmerman, The New Black Panther Party has reportedly begun a mobilization campaign to target white communities.

Panthers: “This Time We’re Going Out To Whitey’s Suburbs and Burning Down HIS Community”

” Predictions Of Riots If Zimmerman Acquitted Display Appalling Lack Of Faith In Black Community”

Not really, it fits in exactly with what the Black Community has historically shown us!

The “appalling” part is trumped-up charges were brought against him anyway

Now their hope is an ignorant jury will “compromise” out of pity . . or fear

I watched a few minutes of the trial today, and it made me sick how the prosecutor played every contrived grievance of the mooching community. It is like he wants riots.

Someone should investigate him and oBambi for inciting riots.

The Black riots after the Zimmerman trial will be nothing compared to the White riots after the OJ trial.

Who Is Racist?

By Thomas Sowell

I am so old that I can remember when most of the people promoting race hate were white.

Apparently other Americans also recognize that the sources of racism are different today from what they were in the past. According to a recent Rasmussen poll, 31 percent of blacks think that most blacks are racists, while 24 percent of blacks think that most whites are racist.

The difference between these percentages is not great, but it is remarkable nevertheless. After all, generations of blacks fought the white racism from which they suffered for so long. If many blacks themselves now think that most other blacks are racist, that is startling.

The moral claims advanced by generations of black leaders — claims that eventually touched the conscience of the nation and turned the tide toward civil rights for all — have now been cheapened by today’s generation of black “leaders,” who act as if it is all just a matter of whose ox is gored.

Even in legal cases involving terrible crimes — the O.J. Simpson murder trial or the charges of gang rape against Duke University students — many black “leaders” and their followers have not waited for facts about who was guilty and who was not, but have immediately taken sides, based on who was black and who was white.

Among whites, according to the same Rasmussen poll, 38 percent consider most blacks racist and 10 percent consider most whites racist.

Broken down by politics, the same poll showed that 49 percent of Republicans consider most blacks racist, as do 36 percent of independents and 29 percent of Democrats.

Perhaps most disturbing of all, just 29 percent of Americans as a whole think race relations are getting better, while 32 percent think race relations are getting worse. The difference is too close to call, but the fact that it is so close is itself painful — and perhaps a warning sign for where we are heading.

Well, as many have already pointed out, there are plenty of precedents for rioting if Zimmerman is acquitted.

But also, this is not an appalling lack of faith. The left ADMIRES this kind of behavior, and they can hardly wait for the rioting to start.

And of course Holder and Obama can’t wait, either. It’s what they’ve been hoping for. Great excuse for more government lawlessness.

But the media would be advised to display a bit more faith in the American public to react rationally if a not guilty verdict is the ultimate outcome of this trial. I may be wrong, and my pride will certainly be the last thing that I mourn should violence in the wake of a possible acquittal materialize, but I do not believe that I will be wrong. The American people are stronger – and better — than that.

What an effing idiot.

Display Appalling Lack Of Faith In Black Community

My faith is based on what I have seen over the last few decades. The blacks will riot and pick up what goodies they can from the honkies.

I would love to be surprised and have no riots, but I'll not hold my breath.

To the Black Community:

You want whites to respect you and treat you as equals?

Stop acting like the word you profess to hate but love to use yourselves.

Class or no class, it's your choice.

I have a lot of faith in the black “community”.

I have no doubt at all that many will act just the way they always do:

Like out of control racist whack-jobs.

They love any excuse for a good street happening, fires and free TV’s.

“...pundits and officials readily preparing for – and, in some cases, stoking through innuendo – a violent reaction from African-Americans should the jury find Zimmerman not guilty.”

Most black citizens of Los Angeles didn’t riot after the Rodney King verdict, either. In fact, a black family saved Reginald Denny’s life after he was beaten by some rioters. That doesn’t mean there wasn’t a bleepload of rioting and burning going on in the city. There’s good and bad in every group, and it’s silly not to at least consider the possibility that the lowlifes will react violently if Zimmerman is acquitted.
