Al Sharpton to lead 100 city-wide Trayvon Martin rallies - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Ziron;41496996]The riots are trying to say "We believe that the justice system is biased against blacks", not "Zimmerman should've been found guilty". People don't riot over a single case. It's like saying the Rodney King riots were over people upset over King being beaten. That may've been one of the surface reasons, but the real reason was that the black community in LA was pissed over the LAPD's racism and decided to act on it. King's beating was the straw that broke the camel's back.[/QUOTE] Yet not too long ago the full video came out and we see King was the one that started it.

This protest is over a single case but that might change.

Al Sharpton is a notorious racist. Just search his past and you'll see he his notorious past of racism against whites.

[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;41499217]Because the protesters cry 'police brutality' when they so much as lay a finger on them.[/QUOTE] Protesters always do that, especially at protests where they don't harm anybody and follow all the laws. These protests are getting violent and will probably end with people getting killed.

someone pls kill al sharpton

How many people have protested this trial so far? 10,000? 100,000? How many people have actually hurt someone over it? 4? And how many incidents of serious vandalism or theft? Couple dozen? Seems the violence is about on par with any mass gathering of predominantly white people. Occupy had a few rapes and assaults, the student protests in Quebec had a handful of incidents of vandalism, it's inevitable any time there's a protest.

Can someone point me towards some information about the case? I'm trying to form an opinion on this case but I can't seem to find anything that isn't heavily biased towards Treyvon, could someone tell me why Zimmerman was so deserving of not guilty?

This involved finding evidence that could prove contrary to Zimmerman's account of Martin striking him first which under Florida law would give Zimmerman legal right to self defense, makign him immune to felony homicide. Because of assumption of innocence, if you can't prove he is lying, it's presumed he is telling the truth. The prosecution could not prove to the jury that he wasn't lying so he is found not guilty.

[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;41495735]Just try to step into somebody else shoes, please. If you are a member of a group who was historically, and to this day is still, discriminated against by the American legal system; then the statement "it was legally and rightfully dealt with in court" is not going to mean all that much to you. I understand that here in the Echo chamber that "he was found not guilty in a court of law, case closed" is some sort of be all end all but just a small change in your vantage point can radically change your interpretation of the events that led up to that decision. You can continue to think Zimmerman is innocent but please at least give the people that you disagree with the dignity of being referred to as human fucking beings.[/QUOTE] Their persecution complex still isn't an excuse for rioting.

I don't think anyone goes out and riots from the get go it starts out as a rally. I can bet you some of these rallies will end up as minor riots as well. Not all but some.

That is practically his entire job. He's got tons of bad quotes to his name of him saying stupid racist shit.

[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;41495181]His weird homophobia aside, there have been a number of prosperous African empires including the Mali Empire, which had many large Libraries and Universities, and the Ethiopian Empire which successfully resisted all attempts at colonization by European nations. These empires were all wiped out or weakened during the age of European colonialism, however. None of this is really taught in Western schools.[/QUOTE] It actually is. That said most of those empires collapsed due to economic reasons as opposed to aggression from Europe. But yeah a lot of those reasons were tied to the absolutely huge booming markets the Europeans were setting up.

Better put the National Guard on stand by, shit will get a little out of control in places. Al Sharpton and the Media are going to eventually ignite a race war. Sharpton will probably long be dead by the time it happens but it's coming, and it isn't even really a race thing as much as it's those neanderthal hood rats that just want to tear shit up

how many hispanics are going to get attacked 'for Trayvon'?

[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;41494861]In MSNBC's defense, Republicans are the goddamn worst.[/QUOTE] It's really humourus to me just how much of a blind bleeding heart liberal you are I don't like a lot of republican thinking either but everytime I read your posts it reminds me of the completely stupid shit a lot of my ultra-liberal friends on facebook post all the time, most of it talking about activism against various stupid crap for reasons that are actually not factually backed up at all. It's just as bad as the crap that the "fox news" crowd loves to roll with.

Welp, this isn't good. Personally, I think that Zimmerman is the least racist person involved with the case. The one and probably only thing most people react to is the media sensationalism with such titles as "White man shoots unarmed black kid" or "Black teen shot by white neighbourhood-watchman" to stir up an outrage without sparing even a single brain cell actually reading into the case beyond "The killer was white and had a gun while the victim was black and armed with Skittles and iced tea". That Al Sharpton is wasting his time protesting a closed case is just sad. I find that the justice system handled the case quite well instead of pre-emptively kicking Zimmerman's ass because he happened to kill a black person while being white. I think the only thing remotely racist here are the people jumping to the conclusion that it was a hate crime and thus becoming racist against "the racist". What I'm trying to say is, just let Trayvon rest in peace and don't make this any more unfortunate than that case was.
