Done!
Sent ‘request action’ all the way from South Australia via the world wide web :
***
Please arrest the suspected murderer of Trayvon Martin, Mr George Zimmerman who it seems is now well known globally for shooting dead an unarmed, unthreatening, innocent teenager based solely on the colour of his skin.
Seriously, your reputation – already badly tarnished – depends on this.

They auto–e-form thanked me for my request. Wonder how many they’ll be getting.
Shared this on facebook too. Thanks Greg Laden.
Vale Trayvon Martin – apparently a really great kid who should still be with us all today. My condolences to his family and friends.
PS. I shouldn’t be doing this.
Because I really shouldn’t *have* to.
Done – though it scares me to think it needs to be done.
^ For crystal clarity here :
What does it say about the Sanford Police that George Zimmerman isn’t in custody and charged with Trayvon Martin’s murder already?
What does it say that this sort of activism is needed at all under the circumstances of Martin’s murder?
This whole thing is a disgrace. That poor child did nothing wrong, yet he lost his life and the murderer is still out enjoying his life. the Sanford Police are a disgrace to law enforcement as well as America. The FEDS should arrest all the Sanford police involved for obstruction of justice and as accessory to the murder
Done from Canada.
HOW LONG… HOW LONG… HOW LONG MUST WE AS A SOCIETY BE SUBJECTED TO THIS EXTREME AND PROLONGED SUFFERING OF RACIST “CARD CARRYING KLAN MEMBERS” WHO WEAR A BADGE AND BETRAYED THEIR OAF TO UPHOLD THE LAW FOR ALL???? THIS IS AN ATROCITY ON NUMEROUS LEVELS!!! HERE ARE A FEW; THE FACT THAT YOUNG MASTER TRAYVON MARTIN HAS BEEN MURDERED ALMOST A MONTH AGO BEFORE ANY ACTION WAS TAKEN. THE FACT THAT HIS PARENTS HAD TO ENGAGE IN THEIR OWN INVESTIGATION ABOUT THEIR SON’S MURDER INSTEAD OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. THERE ARE TOO MANY EGREGIOUS FACTS TO LIST ABOUT THIS TRAVESTY IN THIS FORUM, BUT THERE IS ONE THAT NEEDS TO BE FOCUS UPON. THE FACT THAT THE POLICE DID NOT EFFECT AN ARREST IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT MONSTER GEORGE ZIMMERMAN SHOT IN COLD BLOOD ONE OF OUR NATIONS’ TREASURES (TRAYVON MARTIN)!! THE POLICE JOB IS TO ARREST SOMEONE WHO COMMITTED A CRIME AND IN THIS CASE A HORRENDOUS CRIME. IT IS NOT THE JOB OF THE POLICE TO BE BOTH JUDGE AND JURY. IT WAS NOT FOR THE POLICE TO JUST TAKE THE WORD OF THE PERPETRATOR AND LET THIS MONSTER GO FREE ALONG WITH THE MURDER WEAPON STILL IN ZIMMERMAN’S POSSESSION!!! IT IS NOT UP TO THE STATE’S ATTORNEY TO TRY AND FIND A DEFENSE FOR THIS MURDERER!!!! NOT ONLY IS THERE AN IMMEDIATE NEED FOR JUSTICE FOR YOUNG MR. TRAYVON MARTIN AND HIS FAMILY… IT IS ALSO TIME FOR JUSTICE FOR THE CITIZENS IN THAT COMMUNITY! JUST BASED ON THE LACK OF INTEREST, NOT TO MENTION THERE WAS NEITHER AN ARREST NOR AN INVESTIGATION… IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THERE IS A SYSTEMIC RACIAL PREJUDICE THAT PERMEATES THROUGHOUT THAT POLICE DEPARTMENT! “RIDDLE ME THIS”… IF THERE IS NOT A PREJUDICE COMPONENT TO THIS CASE, THEN WHY IS THE CHIEF OF POLICE (Sanford) DEFENDING HIS DEPARTMENTS LACK OF ACTIONS AND DEFENDING THE WORD OF THE CRIMINAL “WHO JUST HAPPENS TO BE NON-BLACK”? LET US BE TRUTHFUL AND HONEST WITH OURSELVES… IF TRAYVON MARTIN HAD BEEN THE SHOOTER AND GEORGE ZIMMERMAN HAD BEEN THE VICTIM… DO YOU THINK THAT TRAYVON WOULD HAVE NOT BEEN ARRESTED???? ANY PERSON WITH ANY SENSE OF HUMANITY AND CIVILITY WOULD HAVE DID ALL THAT THEY COULD DO IN ORDER TO SEE JUSTICE PREVAIL. THEY (SANFORD POLICE)WOULD HAVE NOT TAKEN THE WORD OF A MURDERER WITHOUT DOING A FULL AND COMPETENT INVESTIGATION OF THIS INCIDENT, BUT THE SANFORD POLICE DEPARTMENT DID JUST THAT. THEY TOOK THE WORD OF A MURDERER WHO HAPPENS TO BE NON-BLACK. AS A BLACK MAN WHO LIVES DOWN SOUTH, THIS REEKS OF THE HUNDREDS/THOUSANDS OF BLACK MEN THAT WERE MURDERED BY WHITE MEN AND THE POLICE STOOD IDLY BY AND DID NOTHING. THE INACTION OF THE POLICE IN REGARDS TO THE MURDER OF TRAYVON IS NO DIFFERENT THEN THE LACK OF ACTIONS BY THE RACIST POLICE DEPARTMENTS IN THE SOUTH DURING THIS NATION’S TIMES OF CIVIL UNREST!! WE AS A NATION SHOULD DEMAND IMMEDIATE JUSTICE FOR TRAYVON MARTIN AS WELL AS AN IN DEPTH FEDERAL INVESTIGATION INTO THE PRACTICES AND THE POLICIES OF THE SANFORD POLICE DEPARTMENT. I AM SURE THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL FIND OTHER VIOLATIONS OF CITIZENS’ RIGHTS! LET US STAND IN SOLIDARITY AND HELP RID THIS NATION OF THIS SICKENING DISEASE OF RACIST PEOPLE CARRYING A BADGE!!!!
Please do your job and arrest this child killer
