If the jury’s verdict declares George Zimmerman not guilty the police are already preparing for Al Sharpton’s so-called “Trayvon riots.”
As previously reported by The Inquisitr, the defense in the George Zimmerman trial rested its case today.
George Zimmerman Guilty Or Not Guilty?
George Zimmerman is facing charges of either manslaughter or second-degree murder. Due to Burden of Proof concerns legal experts are already saying a George Zimmerman acquittal seems likely: “based on the legal standard and evidence presented by prosecutors it is difficult to see how jurors find proof beyond a reasonable doubt that it wasn’t self defense.” These legal experts claim that “reasonable doubt” can be found in the conflicting eyewitness accounts.
Florida Prepares For Trayvon Riots
Whether George Zimmerman’s verdict is guilty or not guilty, Sheriff Scott Israel said the Florida police are already preparing for potential Trayvon riots:
“We don’t have information about a specific event that might take place at the conclusion of the trial, but we encourage everyone to keep any protests peaceful.”
The Sanford police department has been coordinating with Community Relations Service regional director Thomas Battles, who previously helped with the original Trayvon Martin marches, demonstrations, and rallies last year.
The Sherriff’s office has emphatically stated that “freedom of expression is a constitutional right. While raising your voice is encouraged, using your hands is not.” To get that point across clearly, the police have created a video that encourages people to raise their voice, not their hands:

Inciting a riot through by organizing, promoting, encouraging, participating in, or carrying on a riot is illegal by Federal law. Regardless, many people are using social media to declare support for potential Trayvon riots:

If Florida declares George Zimmerman not guilty, do you think we’ll see Trayvon riots or peaceful demonstrations?
The same people. Just looking for a reason to party.
Yes.

Zimmerman isn't even a white male but a Hispanic.
Now the media has all of us talking about this trial when we should be focusing on stopping the awful Amnesty bill.
If GZ is found guilty (which I highly doubt) - it is tantamount to legalizing black on white mischief, especially the ol’ knock out game. Any attempt to defend one’s own life will be a criminal offense.
That’s my fear also.
As I see it this whole trial has been a tragic sham. Put the blame where it belongs.......”ON OBAMA”
Without Obama’s remarks this tragedy would have gotten little attention by the media. Where is the outrage about all the murders that happen daily in Chicago, Oakland etc.
I’m sure there have been many other similar cases in US cities, but these killings are never reported by the media.
Again, thanks MR. PRESIDENT for bringing this case to our attention. Why don’t you go on another vacation!
Remember Bernie Goetz? Get a small revolver.
The US Justice Department printed them and hand delivered them.

I live 10 miles away from Sanford. I’ve been stocking up on ammo for months and all my neighbors are ready. Florida has the castle doctrine, self defence inside your home or on your property. This is something potential rioters\looters should seriously consider before proceeding. It could very well be a life or death decision on their part. I believe there are more CWP holders in Florida than any other state. I’ve had mine since Lawton Chiles signed it into law (I think the only good thing a Democrat ever did in my state). The gun shops in Central Florida have been doing a brisk business. I will feel no remorse for any scumbag trying to hurt me, my family, or my neighbors, after I send them to the hospital or morgue. Many people I talk to feel exactly the same way. I won’t start it, but I certainly will finish it.
Peaceful: A couple of hundred "snickety clicks" of bolt actions sliding into place as rent-a-rioters get worked up into a frenzy, only to fall silent as they realize that common folk aren't putting up with the usual hijinks.
“Where is the outrage about all the murders that happen daily in Chicago, Oakland etc”
That might make a Democrat look bad, and reporting on that is a a career-ending mistake in today’s gay-run media.
I’m too olde to run.
I also believe 1911 is better than 911.
It is quicker.
Consequences? I’m closer to the end than the beginning!
I posted that on a previous Thread and it is still applicable.
I’m 10 miles from Ground Zero.
I also posted this elsewhere: NSA upurs! FUBHO & equine YROIO!
These reports only speculate on riots if a not guilty verdict. I guess that makes them racists since they are implying only black riot when things don’t go their way.
Casselberry, Altamonte Springs?
They will convict him of something, he is going to prison and will have a very bad time there.
I agree. He’s going to jail. One way or another. Would not be shocked if they just went ahead and convicted him of the 2nd degree..... people are putting faith in the jury to do the right thing? Not me.
Oh. He will! Is there any doubt?
