Oakland Demonstrators Burn Flags, Smash Cop Car After Jul. 14, 2013 7:45am Madeleine Morgenstern

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Protesters angered by the acquittal of George Zimmerman held largely peaceful demonstrations in three California cities, but broke windows and started small street fires Oakland, police said.

The gatherings Saturday night ranged from a few dozen to a couple hundred people turning out to protest the verdict in the Florida courtroom over the death of Trayvon Martin, and police said some of the demonstrations continued into the early hours Sunday.

The Oakland police dispatch office said about 100 people protested, with some in the crowd breaking windows on businesses and starting small fires in the streets. As the protest wound down with the crowd dispersing, the office said that as of 2 a.m. PDT it had no word of any arrests.

Local media reports said some Oakland marchers vandalized a police squad car and police formed a line to block the protesters’ path.

There was a Twitter-verse story that a white man in Miami was killed in retaliation. Any proof of that show up?

I think you may be right.
We did not see the large scale rioting that the media told us was coming.

Rejection of the MSM?
Rejection of the race baiters posing as civil rights activist?
Rejection of race baiting elected officials?
ALL OF THE ABOVE?
I can only hope and pray.

115,000 People Have Already Signed NAACP Call For Civil Rights Charges Against George Zimmerman

"An appeal to Attorney General Eric Holder from the nation’s oldest civil rights organization.

The appeal asks Attorney General Eric Holder to “address the travesties of the tragic death of Trayvon Martin by acting today” and press civil rights charges against Zimmerman, who shot an unarmed Martin last February in what he said was an act of self-defense."

Oakland Demonstrators Burn Flags

Well, if you don't like it here... you can always go back to Africa. They really kill a lot of people there... and the vast majority of the deaths are not self-defense.

Al Sharpton: ‘This Is An Atrocity…a Slap in the Face to Those That Believe in Justice’
Jul. 13, 2013 10:51pm Madeleine Morgenstern

Rev. Al Sharpton reacted to the George Zimmerman not guilty verdict by calling it an “atrocity” and “a slap in the face to those that believe in justice in this country.”

“I think that this is an atrocity, I think that it is, it is probably one of the worst situations that I have seen,” Sharpton said. “What this jury has done is establish a precedent that when you are young and fit a certain profile, you could be committing no crime, just bringing some Skittles and iced tea home to your brother and be killed and someone can claim self-defense, having been exposed with all kinds of lies, all kinds of inconsistencies.”

Yes.

Some will claim this is just a bunch of white-boy Occupy partiers as some here have suggested, but the weekend has just begun and the race pimps such as the Revs. JJ and Sharpton are just awakening today. It is still very early....
