In the aftermath of the acquittal of George Zimmerman, Eric Holder,
Al Sharpton and Ben Jealous of the NAACP are calling on the black
community to rise up in national protest.
Yet they know — and Barack Obama, whose silence speaks volumes, knows — nothing is going to happen.
“Stand-Your-Ground” laws in Florida and other states are not going to
be repealed. George Zimmerman is not going to be prosecuted for a
federal “hate crime” in the death of Trayvon Martin.
The result of all this ginned-up rage that has produced vandalism and
violence is simply going to be an ever-deepening racial divide.
Consider the matter of crime and fear of crime.
