A new study released by a research center is claiming that number of whites and Republicans are growing tired of hearing about the death of Trayvon Martin. According to a study by Pew Research Center, 56 percent of Republicans think there’s been too much Martin coverage, compared to 25 percent of Democrats.

The study also concluded that 43 percent of whites believe the case has garnered too much coverage compared to only 16 percent of blacks.

Pew gathered their research through a “nationally representative sample of 1,000 adults” conducted from Thursday, March 29 through Sunday, April 1 about top new stories.

As previously reported, FBI officials have confirmed that they’re now investigating the shooting death of the unarmed teen.

    Only 43% of whites think the coverage has been excessive? may be some hope, after all. Really, I have gotten sick of it, but only because of the delays and stalling by the Man. This sort of Rorschach Test of our populi lets one know where we are in the evolution of humanity. A lot of lessons here for the folks who aren’t listening.
