They will march for Trayvon "Thug" Martin, but when will these black racists march for Baby Drew?
From the San Fran Chronicle: It was the size of the casket that shook Demarco Coney.
Coney, 19, stood near a wall inside an Oakland funeral home Friday and considered the contents of the open box from a distance: 16-month-old Drew Jackson, dressed in a sweater with white and teal stripes, white pants and white shoes.
"Funerals don't even hit me anymore," said Coney, Drew's uncle, who grew up in Richmond and Oakland before he moved to Benicia this year.
"I'm not trying to be cold-hearted, but I've been to so many it's just routine, and it's got to be a special cause for me to come now," Coney said. "But I've never seen a casket that little before."
In an audience that included Mayor Jean Quan, more than 125 family and community members gathered to remember "Baby Drew." He was slain Aug. 7 along with his father, 20-year-old Andrew Thomas, after someone fired bullets into a bedroom where they slept.
Police have made no arrests, yet Drew's murder has come to symbolize a breathtaking new low for criminals who carry out brazen acts in a city with an understaffed police force and the state's highest violent crime rate.
"Whoever did this is a coward," said Bishop Joseph E. Simmons, who called on young men in the audience to stop allowing peers to settle disputes with guns. "Until you chase these cowards out of our community, this is not going to stop." http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Tiny-casket-symbolizes-new-low-for-Oakland-crime-4739091.php
So, when will these Black racists march for Baby drew? Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson? When are you going to Oakland?
How about the racists that marched on Las Vegas Blvd a few weeks ago?
How about the thugs that rioted in Oakland after "Thug" Martin's verdict was read?
Is it because the thug of the murder of Baby Drew was 99% likely to be Black?
Yeah, it's all about getting into the news and seeking your 15 seconds of fame rather trying to make real change.
