I have no doubt that Zimmerman will be arrested

but it won't happen because of the Sanford Police Dept., or the DOJ finally stepping in, but because of the many who have risen up to this senseless and very sad murder.

Martin Luther King Jr., said:

" He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.

History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people."


MLKjr., would be very proud to see what is NOT going to be shuffled under the rug. I can't help but wonder if history would be telling a different story if more "good" silent people had spoken up years ago before the Civil Rights Movement.
