I think some rioting will happen. I live near Sanford, but thankfully, not that close.
According to what Marc Lemont Hill said on that BET special a few weeks back, there will be some rioting... But nobody knows how much.

Has anyone here heard or seen any African American on television that has not already made their mind up as to the guilt or innocence of GZ?

Just like in Cincinnati and LA, rioters use their violent tactics to loot stores and fill their own pockets and apartments.
It has nothing to do with race relations, but everything to do with theft.
Shoot them on sight, and the rioting / looting will stop immediately.
tell that to the white truck driver in LA how got his head bashed in with a cinder block

Huge Call For Riots/Murder of 'Whities' Over Zimmerman Trial if Found Innocent | Global Unrest
There are LOTS of people on Twitter saying this right now. They can tell it's not going the way they wanted it to. I hope this doesn't happen.
If there is violence, then the blame must rest on the media, for making this the circus it has turned out to be. The prosecution must also take blame for allowing themselves to be forced into bringing a malicious prosecution.
People can't accept the truth that this whole trial is a mockery of justice and shouldn't even be happening in the first place. The whole thing is racial. If Martin hadn't been black, we wouldn't be having these discussions.
Both excellent comments ... right on the mark.
I was watching Morning Joe today and they populated the panel with all mouths who concluded Zimmerman must be lying ... note - it was their conclusion not based on evidence.
On the one hand they could simply be whores for what MSNBC wanted to hear ... on the other hand they could be whores for even worse reasons.
But I'll reserve judgment until after I'm able to check the "Black English to English" testimony translation of Rachel Jeantel.
I wonder if the jury has been given the manual.
She was speaking as a representative of her community. She's hopeless, but it does give one some insight into the functioning of that community. It's not like we don't know, but it is instructive that such a person would be highlighted in such a public manner.I don't even know why she was on the stand. Glad she was because it helped Zimmerman's defense, but what was the prosecution thinking puting someone so idiotic as Jeantel on the stand?
If there is rioting it will be "justified" because the trial is less about criminal actions and more about a general racial indictment of black youth culture as a whole. Such an indictment "requires" reparations in whatever form the "injured parties" feel is reasonable....
I heard, during the trial the other day, that Zimmerman identified himself as white. I thought that was odd, since he is Hispanic.
