Former NAACP leader accuses Sharpton and Jackson of ‘exploiting’ Trayvon Martin

Daily Caller "“His family should be outraged at the fact that they’re using this child as the bait to inflame racial passions,” Rev. C.L. Bryant said in a Monday interview with The Daily Caller.
"The conservative black pastor who was once the chapter president of the Garland, Texas NAACP called Jackson and Sharpton “race hustlers” and said they are “acting as though they are buzzards circling the carcass of this young boy.”"
 Police: Zimmerman says Trayvon decked him with one blow then began hammering his head  "With a single punch, Trayvon Martin decked the Neighborhood Watch volunteer who eventually shot and killed the unarmed 17-year-old, then Trayvon climbed on top of George Zimmerman and slammed his head into the sidewalk, leaving him bloody and battered, law-enforcement authorities told the Orlando Sentinel.
"That is the account Zimmerman gave police, and much of it has been corroborated by witnesses, authorities say."
.... "This is what the Sentinel has learned about Zimmerman's account to investigators:"....
Zimmerman told them he lost sight of Trayvon and was walking back to his SUV when Trayvon approached him from the left rear, and they exchanged words.
Trayvon asked Zimmerman if he had a problem. Zimmerman said no and reached for his cell phone, he told police. Trayvon then said, "Well, you do now" or something similar and punched Zimmerman in the nose, according to the account he gave police.
Zimmerman fell to the ground and Trayvon got on top of him and began slamming his head into the sidewalk, he told police. Zimmerman began yelling for help.
Several witnesses heard those cries, and there has been a dispute about whether they came from Zimmerman or Trayvon. Lawyers for Trayvon's family say it was Trayvon, but police say their evidence indicates it was Zimmerman.
One witness, who has since talked to local television news reporters, told police he saw Zimmerman on the ground with Trayvon on top, pounding him — and was unequivocal that it was Zimmerman who was crying for help. Zimmerman then shot Trayvon once in the chest at very close range, according to authorities. When police arrived less than two minutes later, Zimmerman was bleeding from the nose, had a swollen lip and had bloody lacerations to the back of his head.

 Witness Speaks: Martin attacks Zimmermann

Why Manipulate the Tragedy of Trayvon Martin?   "Family breakdown, not white racism, is the biggest impediment facing blacks today, producing such casualties as the 18-year-old gangbanger who fatally shot a 34-year-old mother picking up her child from school in Brownsville, Brooklyn, last October. Sharpton and the national media didn’t show up for that killing, just as they don’t for the thousands of other black-on-black killings each year. By all means, demand justice for Trayvon Martin. But when that justice comes, as it most surely will, perhaps some small part of the energy devoted to securing it could be redirected towards stigmatizing black criminals and revalorizing the role of fathers in families." 

Victor Davis Hanson:   Racial-Relations Regression   "Fairly or not, by now the president, through his past selective editorializing, has lost a great deal of credibility as a national healer.

Maxine Waters would not condemn
the LA riots and the maiming of Reginald
Denny, calling it all a "rebellion"
"While it is natural that African-American activists need answers as to why the armed assailant Mr. Zimmerman was not charged in the shooting, they also cannot explain why their attention is not in commensurate fashion focused on the far greater number of young black males gunned down, many just last week in Chicago, by other black males. Nor can they explain to the non-African-American community why the far greater instances of black-on-white violent crime supports any such notion of a supposed war on young black males."
....
"So far all that is clear is that there is a growing anger among African-Americans about a failure to immediately arrest the shooter that in turn is provoking an even greater backlash against the antics of Al Sharpton, the creepy bounty offered by the New Black Panther Party, and others who inflame for their own careerist advantage, and no one — not the president, not the media, not the civil rights leadership, not the politicians — seems willing or able to call for a time-out until all the facts are reviewed and released. We have collectively regressed to the days of Rodney King and the L.A. riots and the O. J. Simpson trial — or to something far worse. Hope and change came and went."

Are we to re-live this?  Picture this: hordes of people descending on stores, looting them,  being filmed carrying off millions of dollars of merchandise; businesses being burned and emergency personnel being shot at. Black areas of town left devastated and blackened with stores left shuttered and empty for years and unemployment in those areas skyrocketing.
Then will come blame from the Jackson's, Sharpton's, Waters, Farrakhan's and their like saying businesses will not come into those same areas because of "racism". What sane business would ever risk a fortune opening up in these violence-prone areas when one single incident could cause all they had there to be destroyed, with area politicians calling it a justified rebellion?  The Tunnel Dweller.
