Why Did The Obama Administration “Organize And Manage” Protests Against George Zimmerman?

Is the Obama administration at least partially responsible for turning the George Zimmerman trial into such a huge national spectacle? Judicial Watch has obtained documents which prove that the Community Relations Service, a division of the Department of Justice, was sent to Sanford, Florida in late March 2012 “to help organize and manage rallies and protests against George Zimmerman“. This included spending quite a bit of money, arranging meetings between the NAACP and local leaders, and providing police escorts for protesters. Someone needs to ask Obama why the federal government was doing this. A story that should have never made national headlines now threatens to unleash a firestorm of racial fury unlike anything we have seen since the Rodney King verdict. One young man, a neighborhood watch captain, shot and killed another young man. This kind of thing happens in American cities every single night. George Zimmerman says that he did it in self-defense. He should be allowed to have his day in court and that should be the end of the matter. But instead, this thing has been hyped into a massive national spectacle and it is being used to divide us along racial lines. And it appears that we have clear evidence that the Obama administration was involved in doing the hyping.

The documents that Judicial Watch was able to obtain contain some absolutely startling information. Apparently the role of the Obama administration in these protests was quite substantial…

*****

JW filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the DOJ on April 24, 2012; 125 pages were received on May 30, 2012. JW administratively appealed the request on June 5, 2012, and received 222 pages more on March 6, 2013. According to the documents:

- March 25 – 27, 2012, CRS spent $674.14 upon being “deployed to Sanford, FL, to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies related to the shooting and death of an African-American teen by a neighborhood watch captain.”

- March 25 – 28, 2012, CRS spent $1,142.84 “in Sanford, FL to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies related to the shooting and death of an African-American teen by a neighborhood watch captain.

- March 30 – April 1, 2012, CRS spent $892.55 in Sanford, FL “to provide support for protest deployment in Florida.”

- March 30 – April 1, 2012, CRS spent an additional $751.60 in Sanford, FL “to provide technical assistance to the City of Sanford, event organizers, and law enforcement agencies for the march and rally on March 31.”

- April 3 – 12, 2012, CRS spent $1,307.40 in Sanford, FL “to provide technical assistance, conciliation, and onsite mediation during demonstrations planned in Sanford.”

- April 11 – 12, 2012, CRS spent $552.35 in Sanford, FL “to provide technical assistance for the preparation of possible marches and rallies related to the fatal shooting of a 17 year old African American male.”

But the involvement of the Department of Justice went far beyond just spending money and helping to organize and manage the protests.

Apparently, the Department of Justice was involved in setting up meetings between the NAACP and local officials, and the Department of Justice even arranged police escorts for protesters…

On April 15, 2012, during the height of the protests, the Orlando Sentinel reported, “They [the CRS] helped set up a meeting between the local NAACP and elected officials that led to the temporary resignation of police Chief Bill Lee according to Turner Clayton, Seminole County chapter president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.” The paper quoted the Rev. Valarie Houston, pastor of Allen Chapel AME Church, a focal point for protestors, as saying “They were there for us,” after a March 20 meeting with CRS agents.

Separately, in response to a Florida Sunshine Law request to the City of Sanford, Judicial Watch also obtained an audio recording of a “community meeting” held at Second Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church in Sanford on April 19, 2012. The meeting, which led to the ouster of Sanford’s Police Chief Bill Lee, was scheduled after a group of college students calling themselves the “Dream Defenders” barricaded the entrance to the police department demanding Lee be fired. According to the Orlando Sentinel, DOJ employees with the CRS had arranged a 40-mile police escort for the students from Daytona Beach to Sanford.

Under what conditions is it ever acceptable for the federal government to arrange police escorts for protesters?

And why did the Obama administration want to help them?

What was the goal?

As a result of all of the hype that this case has been given, we now have more racial tension in the United States than we have had in a very, very long time.

And it is becoming apparent to everyone what could potentially happen if George Zimmerman is acquitted. In fact, law enforcement officials are so concerned about violence in the aftermath of the verdict that they have released a video encouraging young people not to commit violent acts…

On Monday, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office released a video calling on the public not to riot in the wake of the George Zimmerman verdict, expected this week or next in Florida. The Sheriff’s Office released a statement explaining that it was “working closely with the Sanford Police Department and other local law enforcement agencies” to coordinate “a response plan in anticipation of the verdict.”

The video, titled “Raise Your Voice, Not Your Hands,” focuses on attempting to channel reaction into non-violent response. It depicts two youngsters, one black teenage boy, one Hispanic teenage girl. “Raise your voice!” says the girl. “And not your hands!” says the boy. “We need to stand together as one, no cuffs, no guns,” says the girl. “Let’s give violence a rest, because we can easily end up arrested,” says the boy. “I know your patience will be tested,” says the girl, and then both conclude, “but law enforcement has your back!”

This never should have happened.

This case should never have been hyped like this.

Instead of being encouraged to look at each other as individuals and fellow American citizens, our politicians and the media continue to hype racial division and strife.

Are we ever going to learn how to love one another?

Yup,youre seeing that too.
 

One step closer to hell I guess.
 

The Sanford police chief who was fired during the early part of the case has stated on record there were no grounds to arrest Zimmerman, based on the evidence Zimmerman fired in self-defense. He went on to state he was told to arrest him even if there is no case......

He stated there was a lot of outside pressure to arrest even though there was no grounds to arrest based on the evidence and the law.

Oh, and here is the kicker, the police chief is also black.

He was staying with family there in the "gated" community. I'm right down the middle on this one. He had been expelled from school and maybe he was a thug. Does that mean he needs to be shot? Maybe, maybe not. Did Zimmerman pursue him with a gun in hand after being told by dispatcher not to? I think so!
 

All evidence shows Martin was on top of Zimmerman, forensic evidence presented in trial shows Martin's shirt was 3-4 inches from his chest when shot, (powder burns and residue) consistent with leaning over someone so he wasn't on ground or shirt would be flat on chest says forensic experts, plus angle of bullet entry in body shows shot was from ground up, not down to body.

Martin was on ground banging Zimmerman's head on ground as evidence revealed. Fired police chief says there was no evidence to arrest Zimmerman on, all evidence pointed towards self defense under the law.

It does not matter if police told Zimmerman not to follow Martin, Zimmerman lived there and there had been burglaries in the subdivision, Zimmerman follow martin to see what he was up to....

From what I have recently read a whole lot more is about to hit the fan that will show we were and are right.

I want post it to avoid political arguments in open forum. (Stockman)

As far as martial law, I will not tolerate living under a political dictatorship..

Sounds like more Politics to me.

Yes The Media is at fault for making sure if there is not a guilty verdict
there could be riots. but this is just their way of creating news.

As much as I don't like obuma I don't think the administration is involved.

But I am still hoping Zimmerman is found guilty
to send a message to community crime watch people.
They are not cops & not legalized vigilantes either

Jeff under Fla law there is no evidence he is guilty.

Living in Fla the trial is broadcast live, it is on the news every day and in the papers.

All forensic evidence points to Martin being on top of Zimmerman, there was injuries to the back of Zimmerman's head consistent with his head being rammed in the ground multiple times as well.

Everything Zimmerman told the police from the start has been supported by the forensic evidence presented at the trial so far.

Based on evidence presented at trial so far the state has not proven their case, under the law he is innocent unless proven guilty and they have not proven he broke any laws, under Florida law he defended himself....

If someone is sitting on top of me banging my head on the roadway, sidewalk or ground I would defend myself as well.

There was 1000 times more evidence to convict OJ there there is to convict Zimmerman...

Unfortunately, TH, is probably right. There is not enough evidence to convict of 2nd degree and manslaughter is unlikely. However, that does not mean that a trial was not necessary. Regardless of the verdict, a trial was the right thing to do. When a teenager dies in this manner it is not up to the local authority to decide if somebody is guilty of a crime. Remember that thread about police abuse and control of power? You are looking right at it, but in the opposite direction. A teenager who was walking down the street minding his own business is now dead.

1. Zimmerman will most likely be found innocent.
2. Trayvon Martin is dead.
3. Zimmerman racially profiled Martin.
4. Martin is dead.
5. Zimmerman shot and killed Martin.
6. Martin is dead.

A trial was necessary! My two cents.

The chief of police who was fired and who is also black has stated there was no evidence to charge Zimmerman with any crime.

Sorry but if your walking through my neighborhood and look suspicious I will investigate as would many people. I have followed cars that acted strange, followed people who acted strange also.

I stopped a kidnapping and most likely a rape or worse because I chose to get involved and investigate when I was younger, if I had been armed then I would have shot him....
