Despite talk of Trayvon Martin riots ratched up in the media before George
Zimmerman was found to be not guilty by a Florida jury last night, widescale
rallies held in major US cities have remained largely peaceful — despite a
large demonstration in New York drawing an estimated 10,000 people.
As midnight nears, the number of people taking to the streets in Trayvon
Martin’s name (but not rioting) does not seem to be decreasing, and several
livestreams have popped up — with no evidence of any untoward behavior.
The New York Trayvon Martin rally appeared to be heating up a few moments
ago, with audible shouts of “film the police!” and “take out your phones!”
But as the crowd marches up to Harlem from Times Square, chants of “no
justice, no peace” and “the system is rotten, it killed Trayvon Martin”
can be heard among the peaceful demonstrators gathered late into the hot
night in NYC.
Over on Twitter, the Trayvon rallies are being widely covered on the ground
by attendees and distributed by signal boosters, and in L.A. and NYC, some
reports of police and demonstrator tension have been sighted.
The NYC livestream indicates that at least three have been arrested during
the protests, and a device called an LRAD is said to have been spotted with
NYPD on scene: |
