And your little disclaimer? Some of my best friends are black too.
Tigress DEM
(7,887 posts)a spontaneous demonstration in Oakland, CA, was reported as "spilling into the streets" and the numbers (it was about a hundred people) reported as if it were the Million Angry Black People march.
WHEN DEMs marched on Washington, DC we had almost 1/2 million people and they said it was "thousands" so it's all about spin.
Part of my is ready to shed my peace loving nature and throw as many rotten eggs at Zimmerman's house as I can. HE stinks. The verdict stinks and he should be made aware that WE the PEOPLE KNOW he simply bought and lied his way out of a murder charge.
BUT remaining peaceful shows them what Democracy is really made of and it honors the MAIN Man of the Civil Rights Movement - Martin Luther King.
You're right. No matter how outraged we are, the call is to peaceful action, not violence.
MIGHT is not RIGHT or Zimmerman would be proven vindicated.
LEFT is RIGHT because when Justice FAILS what is LEFT is to do what is needed to correct the course and keep the US.S America from crashing onto the rocks of ignorance and reactivity.

News Flash Black America is not one large blob that flows in the same motion. Even if some people had reacted in a negative Minor. It would not and should not be an indictment on "Black America ". Rather the blame should be placed on those individuals who choose that path. As it happens when white people behave foolishly.
Otherwise, I should make a post thanking White America for not eating everyone like Jeffrey Dahmer. I mean aren't all white people murderous cannibals?
disclaimer- some of my best friends are white
