There has been some speculation in the blogosphere that Negro Fatigue is setting in nationwide among Whites over the Trayvon Martin case.

Here are the numbers:

“In one of the starkest differences, 73% of blacks said they think George Zimmerman would have been arrested if Trayvon was white, while only 33% of whites agreed. The majority of white people polled —52% —said race made no difference in the way the case was handled. …

Blacks were more likely to think Zimmerman is guilty of a crime; 51% say he was definitely guilty and 21% say he was probably guilty. Whites were more inclined to reserve judgment; 58% say his guilt was unclear based on information currently available.

The poll also showed that 72% of blacks think racial bias was a major factor in Trayvon’s shooting.

White Americans were split on the question of racial bias, 30% said it was a major factor, 26% said it was a minor factor, and 27% said it was not a factor.

Blacks also keep abreast of the development in the case in far larger numbers than whites: 52% say they are following the case closely.”
