Agree 100%. It is coming now, no matter what happens in the case and what is the final determination. I can see probably riots even if Zimmerman were charged with 1st degree murder and sentenced to death. The media has jumped on and whipped up the frenzy, and Obama shouldn't have said anything before the facts come out. He got burned already doing that very thing. Riots .... and then what? "National unrest" ... and then .......???

I'll add one to the list - riots a al Rodney King I think you can count on riots. The MSM and Obama have whipped people to the verge. The Occupy movement and now the Traymor case are just the budding of something growing bigger. There's been two days of marches here in L.A., which have attracted more people by the hour. The helicopter hovers overhead, shows the crowd and an hour later, the crowd has almost doubled. When the reporter interviews someone, they are angry, I mean, they are very angry. Anything can set them off. You can see the reporter getting excited because there's REAL news happening and she's right in the middle of it. Watching one reporter today, I thought she was actually agitating a crowd, trying to get the angriest one on camera. When you consider the ability of these different groups (Acorn, SEIU, Rainbow Coalition, Occupy, Media Matters, etc.) to organize around an issue, they can have thousands of people in a location with a simple blast email, twitter or the media itself. Just imagine if Obama loses the election and he gets up in front of the cameras and declares that the election was stolen from him. He will not be a gracious loser. Hundreds of thousands will rally around him because they will believe their free ride is about to end.
