Love the picture of a 12 year old TM, with 17 yo written right next to it to mislead people.

Tm was profiled.... just not racially. He was criminally profiled because he fit the description of the criminals that had previously committed crime in the area.
Because TM was black it is assumed that he was profiled, its not GZ's fault that TM was black. He never made any racial comments. His frustration was directed at the criminals that had previously gotten away. The FBI has already investigated and found no basis for a hate crime or racial profiling.

I still want to know why there has been ZERO outrage at the obvious gender profiling that went on here.

With that in mind I guess I have just as much of a right to be offended as any 17 year old, or black person.

Maybe Nancy Grace should be asked this question. Will there mow be demands for her firing? This is more profiling than Zimmerman did. Or is it ok to everyone since her target was Zimmerman?

The real world facts indicate that Blacks are committing the majority of crimes, especially, black on black murder. So yes, racial profiling is necessary and required.

Those who support racial profiling seem to always point to "statistics" to justify their position. What happened to individual liberty? Why should an individual be subject to special treatment based on a broad statistical assumption, which in effect amounts to forcing him to absorb someone else's assumptions about him based on the actions of those unrelated to him?

Apparently American individualism only counts for some Americans.

This is a classic demo of leftist mental disorder.

'Profiling' is the way humans process information. Evolution created it. Those who don't process information this way are much more likely to put themselves in danger and die.
