That is not realistic. Not only does this moral obligation (Which is only a recent change in human psyche) clash with our evolutionary instinct (Which has been in our psyche for thousands of years), but it is also impossible to execute in some areas of our life. There is sound psychology behind profiling, and if I remember correctly it is the Israelis who are the global leaders in the science of it.
There are a number of reasons why young black males are seen as threats, none of which has anything to do with racism.
I would be more than happy to explain it to you, but so far my other posts have gone unacknowledged. Why should I take the time out of my day to teach you something if you doggedly refuse to take it in?

Most people just aren't like you. And to explain that you are what you are is just a waste of time. We could profile Zimmerman just the same. From where I'm from they're actually a serious threat to some. I don't see it that way or at least I don't try to along with white males can be seen as a threat. Males in general could be as well what's your point besides that you're just taking one part of the population and exploiting it.

There is absolutely no way second degree is going to stick. None. Zip. Zero.
Also, there are no hate crime charges being filed, because there was no hate crime.

Yeah but he's more well educated and well experienced with the matters of this case? You or the DA? Plus what are you going to do about it?
Overall I will surmise whatever happens I don't care as long as he was charged that's all I wanted... And am happy they made the right decision...
