To be fair, Obama, Al Sharpton, Jackson, and AA Congressmen did not demand the man be killed neither did they offer a reward for his murder. I know that's not what you meant but you kind of lumped them all up into one sentence, so I just wanted to clarify that one point. I'll agree that those did jump the gun on the Martin case. There were people on both sides that didn't exactly use their best judgment. That's typical in a racially heated debate, the sad thing about it is race shouldn't have been in the discussion in the first place. It doesn't matter if either Martin or Davis were black, white, hispanic, or Jewish... they died tragically. The Martin case was a misunderstanding that shouldn't have happened (not to hang Mr. Zimmerman but regardless of how you see it a 17 year old life gone is tragic).
