NAACP Leads Push for Federal Civil Rights Charges Against Zimmerman After Race Kept Out of Trial
As protests against the acquittal of George Zimmerman continue in Los Angeles, Oakland and other cities, the NAACP is calling on the U.S. Department of Justice to file civil rights charges against Zimmerman for killing 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. On Monday, Attorney General Eric Holder described the killing of Martin as "tragic" and "unnecessary," but he did not indicate whether he intended to bring a federal case. "The reality is that it's not clear that Trayvon Martin had any peers on that jury," says NAACP President Benjamin Jealous. "And it does appear that there may have been a racial dynamic, and that some of the racial dynamics in the community -- which is a very racially divided community historically -- have come into play." Jealous also criticized the judge for inhibited discussion about racial profiling. "We went through this kind of surreal trial where the judge blocked all discussion of racism of racial profiling," Jealous says. Nearly one million people have signed an online NAACP petition asking for the DOJ to pursue a case.

The Blacks, and some Whites, are "TAKING THE BAIT!" The "Globalists" are sitting back and LAUGHING!!! I heard a new phrase today, it's called The "Race Industry". It seems as though it's filled with MONEY GRUBBERS like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and let's not forget, Eric Holder-"Mr. Fast and Furious!" My prayers are with you George Zimmerman, you DO NOT deserve this INSANITY!
ReplyDeleteSeems no one remember Eric Holder was the Deputy Attorney General involved in the 1993 Waco Texas Siege that killed children,he didn't care then NOW because ONE black looses his life,because he was hitting Zimmerman SELF DEFENCE is all it was. All this is gonna do is insure Race riots. Which is just what Obama wants to invoke Marshall law. We need to remove Obama.
