I think the statement, 'These punks always get away' makes the profiling rather obvious.
He then 'got away with' all of it, from the profiling to the killing.
That's what I was trying to say.
I understand now what you were trying to say.
I didn't suggest that profiling wasn't obvious, though I may disagree with the nature of the profiling.
I don't see any clear disagreement. Seems we're both of the opinion that people aren't protesting because they believe that Zimmerman profiled Trayvon and got away it. People are instead protesting because they believe that Zimmerman was unjustified in killing Trayvon, after having wrongly profiled him, and got away with it.
Will the protests spur a review of some flawed laws or be the catalyst for serious race relations discussions aimed at improvements? Seems unlikely, but maybe some good will come of them. Hope so.
