This is gonna get ugly.

Agreed.

And it'll happen faster than anyone expects/anticipates. With Rodney King people were spun up to the point of riot by watching leaders like Maxine Waters on TV yelling "No Justice, No Peace", talking to others face-to-face in their neighborhoods and maybe by phone.

We live in the smart-phone-driven Flash-Mob era. The Sanford police may be saying that everything is calm ... but they probably only have a limited view of what's up on the surface and visible. Sort of like seeing an iceberg. That's why, if there's an acquittal, we may see more widespread rioting than in 1992 - the communications mechanisms now are much better at facilitating it.

Can’t we all just get along?

Since Obama has stirred the racial grievance pot, it would be a damn shame if his voters got caught in the middle of this.

I don’t think there will be riots. Just a lot of random acts, sucker punches, teeth getting knocked out, with comments like “That’s for Trayvon.” The Martin Family is after money now. Payday in civil court.
