“Mostly peaceful protesters” mostly smashed the crap out Youth Radio, a nonprofit youth-based media organization in Oakland, Calif. Hey, someone’s gotta hold those windows accountable for George Zimmerman’s not-guilty verdict … for the children.
Kid kicks window, smashing it dramatically. Man runs up: "That's Youth Radio, fucking stop!" #Oakland

Youth Radio has been covering the aftermath of the verdict.

One of many banners at the #Oakland protest for #Trayvon http://t.co/RFG4FuKX2e. If you were at the #protest what would your banner say?

Seriously, @youthradio does more to get the voices of black youth into the national media more than almost anyone. WTF, y'all!? #Oakland

You "protestors" attacked Youth Radio??!.. How that ever parallels supporting Trayvon Martin or humanity is unfathomable.

What does smashing the window of youth radio & hitting a worker at flora in the head with a hammer have to do with anything? Fuck off. #oo

Also in Oakland: Trayvon Martin vigilantes assaulted a waiter with a hammer, attacked media and smashed up a Men’s Wearhouse (founded by George Zimmer, not George Zimmerman).
