Youth at LA Trayvon Martin Protest Turn Violent
Attacked TV reporter, set fires, trashed cars
A peaceful protest of the George Zimmerman verdict in Los Angeles turned violent Monday after youths broke away from the main demonstration in Leimert Park, stomped on cars, broke windows, set fires and attacked several people.
KCBS-TV/KCAL-TV reporter Dave Bryan and his cameraman were among those who came under assault. One of the two journalists was taken to a hospital with a possible concussion, Los Angeles Police Department Lt. Andy Neiman told The Times.

It might be off-topic, but I saw this article from the USA Today about Jesse Jackson's recent remarks http://usatoday30.usatoday.com.....55527742/1 It's kind similar to what Bill Cosby once said, it could be interesting to see some possible reactions about it.
Note then that article was written in June 2012, before the conclusion of the Zimmerman trial.
So, he supports kulak disarmament and communism? What a shock. Shit, I'd prefer he stick to race baiting, at least it's less likely to fool sensible people.
