It's easy to say what you would have done. In reality, we don't know what you would have done. It's easy to say you would do X, Y, and Z. At the end of the day, you were not in that situation.

Also, on the 911 tape, Zimmerman mentions he sees him having his hand in his waistband.

I think Martin was profiled based on his clothes.
