The Trayvon Martin shooting

Sharpton emcees racially-focused Sanford rally, warns against use of violence  

"Despite his harsh rhetoric, Sharpton warned the thousands in attendance to avoid resorting to violence at all costs as the Martin case progresses. “I want our people to understand that how you behave is going to be a reflection on this case,” Sharpton instructed the crowd. “[No matter] how angry we get, don’t let them make you act in a way that they will say, ‘see, that’s what to think with Trayvon.’” That's a real switch for Sharpton. 

"“We are going to act intelligent,” Sharpton said. “We going to act dignified. And, we’re going to be determined. We may be angry, but we’re not mad dogs. We’re too smart to fall for [that].”

"Left-wing radio host Joe Madison — known as the “Black Eagle” — spoke about how he thinks the shooting of Martin is a sign of overt racism."...

From the comments to this article:

.....As a black female, my question is.. is it ok for us black people to kill each other. Murder is only wrong when a white person kills a black person?
All murder, stealing is, crime etc. wrong. The black communities acceptance of black on black crime shows we have been thoroughly brainwashed. We should be this angry about all the crime in our communities.

 ....It is a real shame that this young man's tragic death is being used to forward an agenda. Look at Sharpton's wording using THEY and WE to keep the racist fires going. 

....What you believe is a lie. Note the following from March 4th, "a 13-year-old boy who police say was doused with gasoline and lit on fire last week while walking home from school is recovering from first-degree burns to his face and head. The boy was just two blocks from his home in Kansas City Tuesday when two teenagers began to follow him and then attacked him, his mother, Melissa Coon, said.Police have described the suspects as black 16-year-olds, while the victim is white." This is from the NY Daily News. Where were you, and Al Sharpton, when this happened?

Expect no clean resolution to the Trayvon Martin shooting. "Zimmerman, who was licensed in Florida to carry a concealed weapon, told police he had fired in self-defense, but the details of his statement to investigators have not been made public. The dearth of details has not prevented an outcry calling for Zimmerman’s arrest for murder. So intense is the political pressure on prosecutors that Zimmerman will almost certainly be charged with a crime, but there is little chance he’ll be convicted of one, certainly not murder." Remember the Rodney King riots?   
But never stop honoring those who saved Denny's life at the risk of their own. "But it was because of trucker Green and Terri Barnett, Titus Murphy and Lei Yuille that Denny is alive, that Williams and co-defendant Henry Keith Watson stood accused of attempted murder rather than murder." Cities around this nation may need hundreds more like them soon.
