Lets talk about his biased views towards blacks!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Zimmerman
Some residents of his gated townhouse community declared that Zimmerman was known for being strict and that he went door to door asking them to be on the lookout for "young black men who appear to be outsiders", while others regarded him as normal, helpful and passionate about neighborhood security, having supposedly thwarted a previous burglary attempt.[30] The community reportedly experienced numerous instances of burglary, theft, and one shooting during the previous year, with 402 calls made to the police." According to the Miami Herald, Zimmerman had placed 46 of those calls since the beginning of 2011, "to report disturbances, break-ins, windows left open and other incidents; nine of those times, he saw someone or something suspicious". The Herald described Zimmerman as "mild-mannered", but "fixated on crime and focused on young, black males."[30]
Sounds like racial profiling here!
But starting in 2011, Zimmerman’s calls increasingly focused on what he considered “suspicious” characters walking around the neighborhood—almost all of whom were young black males.
On April 22, 2011, Zimmerman called to report a black male about “7-9” years old, four feet tall, with a “skinny build” and short black hair. There is no indication in the police report of the reason for Zimmerman’s suspicion of the boy.
On Aug. 3 of last year, Zimmerman reported a black male who he believed was “involved in recent” burglaries in the neighborhood.
And on Oct. 1 he reported two black male suspects “20-30” years old, in a white Chevrolet Impala. He told police he did “not recognize” the men or their vehicle and that he was concerned because of the recent burglaries.
Also he referred to Trayvon as an asshole. Why? Cause he was black? That is racial profiling. There are even rumours(unconfirmed) that the undercover officer he assaulted was black. Still would be interesting to hear what that officer had to say on the stand.....
