Protests of Zimmerman verdict mostly peaceful; sporadic vandalism reported

Communities across America braced for a day of demonstration, and possibly even dissent, as the public awoke Sunday to learn a six-person Florida jury had acquitted George Zimmerman of second-degree murder, overnight, in the February 2012 killing of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

Protesters on the West Coast massed, and in some cases marched Saturday in four California cities, beneath the lingering sunshine after the verdict was announced around 10 p.m. on the East Coast. 

Most of the California demonstrations proved peaceful, although matters were marred by sporadic reports of stray violence and vandalism, including the halt of a passenger train, the burning of American and California flags, the lighting of small fires in city roadways, shattered storefront windows and the spray painting of a courthouse, as well as the damaging of a police squad car. 

In Oakland, police said about 100 people protested, with some among the crowd breaking windows and starting fires in the streets. As the protest eventually fizzled, the office of police information added that it had no word of any arrests as of 2 a.m. local time.

Despite what Paul J. Watson is reporting on info-whores - protest peaceful, no riots . Asshole!

What is the ever-embellishing Mr Watson claiming this time?

link/title above : riots, ha, opportunist vandals at best.

Will Alex Jones have a heart attack in disappointment that the country isn't tearing itself apart? We all know he will only be happy when the apocalypse finally commences!
