Definitely a media-driven event. Yes, Zimmerman was stupid, but, yes, Martin was the aggressor.

Remember how almost all of the pictures posted of Martin showed a sweet little choir-boy looking ten-year-old? When they should have been showing pictures of a much older and much more thuggish-looking person.

Sad that a young man lost his life, but I don't believe Zimmerman had a choice after he was attacked.

If, and that is a very big "If", Zimmerman is acquitted, it's possible the riots won't be confined to Florida.

Funny thing is, we've had sixteen homicides this year in Montgomery, AL and they have, as far as I can determine, all been black-on-black violence. If the two good "Reverends" want to address a major problem in the black community, they should be taking a long, hard look at this sort of thing.
