Trayvon Martin's mother choked back tears as a crowd of 2,000 New Yorkers chanted "We love you" - one week after George Zimmerman was acquitted of murder by a Florida jury in the fatal shooting of the unarmed black teenager.
Across the nation, hundreds marched in the heat of a summer Saturday (local time) to rally at federal courthouses in Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles and other cities, demanding "Justice for Trayvon."
In Miami, Tracy Martin told about 300 supporters of his son's cause that, after the acquittal, he has "come to realize George Zimmerman wasn't on trial - Trayvon was on trial."
In New York, hip-hop mogul Jay-Z and singer Beyonce, his wife, arrived at one of the largest of the protests organizer Rev. Al Sharpton said were planned for 100 cities nationwide.
Martin's mother stifled sobs as she told the crowd: "Not only I vow to do what I have to do for Trayvon Martin, I promise I'm going to work hard for your children as well."(continued)

... and everything after that is a buzzkill.
Well we have seen Obama still believes in the use of coal for something.......
No, thank you, ma'am. You have done enough damage already.
“Not only I vow to do what I have to do for Trayvon Martin, I promise I’m going to work hard for your children as well.”....................................... and keep on sending $$$$ to support our cause.
By doing away with checking voter registrations we have encouraged black people to believe that they have the right to steal elections, so the natural progression would be that they have the right to dictate judicial outcomes.

What about for my SON, my child, my baby?
His parents include the father, former Crip, and a mother who left her son in the care of an aunt who was a gang banger..some parents huh
Guess that would mean encouraging them to become punks with no respect for people, property, or the rule of law.
What a wonderful mother.
It’s quite sad isn’t it? Where were they when he was smoking dope and guzzling purple drank? I have three kids and if someone was following my kids they would come home, not turn around and assault the person. Up is down and down is up in this world.
I wonder what percentage of the franchise they get to keep?
Maybe she could join the Cindy Sheehan book tour.
I see we have our new Cindy Sheehan.
Where I live there is no problem between the races that I can discern. Whites/blacks/Hispanics all seem to get along pretty good. They all hate thugs and criminals. But then I do not live in a liberal hell hole.
Rev Al made sure to mention that on his Twitter feed....SEVERAL times. Name dropper he is.
Phony, baloney, plastic banana good time rock ‘n’ rollers. They are the ones who are on a guilt trip. If his parents had stayed around and raised him he might still be alive today. Right now, they are only after the bling and kaching as well as their “15 minutes” as celebrities. These people are despicable.
