Early on Sunday morning, Reverend Jesse Jackson Sr. released a statement on Facebook regarding the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the killing of Trayvon Martin. He quickly blamed the absence of black members of the jury for the acquittal. “We are saddened and disappointed by this decision. It is a pattern involving young black men that is too often repeating itself. In my view the American legal system has once again failed justice. The jury, no black and no men, was always suspect.”
Jackson then called for peaceful protest rather than violent protest: “The whole world observed this painful conclusion. Every avenue in the law was watching. I hope that no one will compound our pain with street justice. It will do damage to the innocent blood and legacy of Trayvon Martin.”(continued)

Who care what Jesse Jackson thinks anymore
Why does he get to speak for all black people?
What did Jackson say about women making Big Decisions again?

More to the point. why is he not in jail?
it was not painful. it was stressful b/c an innocent guy was on trial for defending himself.
He’s have been singing their praises effusively if they’d returned a “guilty” verdict.
Have we heard from Sharpton yet, or is he still tuning his bullhorn?
So it is more important to you that an innocent man is sent to jail, huh jackson?
These people don’t see the Justice system as a way to determine innocence or guilt, they see it as a means to achieve “social justice.”
Poor Je$$e, he never had the chance to soak his shirt in Trayvon’s blood.

Is his son still in the nuthouse?
Didn’t the prosecution have a hand in picking that jury?
could the chip on the shoulder the size of mount everest get any bigger.....the AA sense of entitlement and that the law doesnt apply to them be anymore evident......for a minority, it sure is full of racists, corrupt officials and intercommunity murder on a grand scale.
Jackson is a racist pig, a thug and a coward.
Those are his good points.
Of course they did.
Like I give a damn what that bug eyed bastard attempts to think.
1. Racist to imply that only blacks can render judgment of either guilt or innocence for another black. This isn’t Sharia court.
2. Sexists to imply females don’t have the capacity to determine guilt or innocence for a male.
A two-fer to go along with the MSM cricket sounds.
