SANFORD — After weeks of demanding justice in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, reaction across Central Florida to George Zimmerman's second-degree murder charge shows measured relief.

"I think it's justice being served," Sanford's Allen Chapel AME Church Pastor Valarie Houston said. "All the protesting and all the marching, all the tears and lost nights of sleep, it's all been worthwhile."

Houston held a prayer service at the church that was attended by several dozen people after Special Prosecutor Angela Corey's decision to charge Zimmerman. Worshippers rose to sing "Glory, Glory Hallelujah" after walking into the church.

Minister R. White, in his opening prayer, thanked God and asked blessings for the Zimmerman family "on this victorious day."

The Goldsboro neighborhood church has been a focal point for protesters and others who have expressed their concerns about the handling of the case by the Sanford Police Department.

On Monday, the Dream Defenders, a coalition of college students from across Florida marched from Daytona Beach to the church to demand the arrest of Zimmerman. They later blocked the entrance to the Sanford Police Department, forcing officials to temporarily close the building to the public....

It is better that innocent whites be railroaded than the black racists like Sharpton be upset.

All part of a 50,000,000 year payback for slavery.

You are delusional. There’s not going to be any white uprising. Any whites who try, will be ripped to shreds both on the streets and in the legal system.

[Big Horn]

Where are they going to find a fair jury?

[Godwin1]

The mob and the media are appeased. For now.

Seminole County, where Sanford is located, is only 11% black.

You are delusional. There’s not going to be any white uprising. Any whites who try, will be ripped to shreds both on the streets and in the legal system.

Maybe in the short term, you're right, but if things get bad along with some sort of collapse or partial collapse where the "powers that be" are too worried about their individual survival to through their weight around and leave most communities and States to make their own "laws." Still, it is like anything else, like most animals, if the beatings keep going on, one day the animal will snap and fight back.

Then again, maybe it will not be so overt, but more underground, perhaps some of the Whites will fight in a way to slow up and stop the process. Paperwork can be lost, dirty tricks and so on.

I dunno, it is hard to predict the future but there will be a time when they won't take it anymore.

In all seriousness, IMO she’s leaving “civil rights violations”, i.e., “double jeopardy” to honest thinkers, for the feds, in case her own show trial doesn’t work out.

[Salamander]

The tyranny of the minority.

We should be used to that by now.

I am very much concerned that you are right in this since. Angry blowback will come, mark my words.

Correction:

“In this sitituation”.

[Biggirl]

The question I have is, what MOB? What TRIBE?

Prediction: Hung jury, or nothing more then 3rd degree.

[Biggirl]

A small crowd to begin with.

[Biggirl]

The truth is that you are right, you are not delusional. Angry blowback will come, mark my words.

Blood lust is an ugly thing.

Amen.

"Where are they going to find a fair jury?"

Right. What I thought too.
