The presupposition of riots reeks of racism.

The american media wants riots, and so far most of the protests have been peaceable.

The whole set up of the media riot baiting reeks of implicit racism and old school elitist values, divorced from the picture on the ground.

One could practically make a sketch out of a reporter throwing a brick at the police to kick off unrest.



The mainstream american media, keeping up with the Joneses

Its not racisim....its ratings. Probably the main reason MSNBC is "Race...Race...Race" all day since the verdict. Their's is in the crapper.
 
all these anti-Zimmerman folks threatened riots if zimmerman won, they lost, and cowered away from their threats. not really the fault of the media they reported on the paper tigers' threats

You are basing your evidence on tweets which don't even represent the majority of people. It has nothing to do with them cowering away, but rather that such people making those threats were in the minority whereas the people who decided to peacefully protest were in the majority.

So you want riots and the people are cowards if they dont riot.

Nice rhetoric you got there.

You are coming across like a good person.
