His whole point is that GZ was "racial profiling" and needs to go to jail.
I pointed out that the break-ins at the complex have been young black men and even though profiling is a hard subject, there is going to be some of that.
So, at the end of the day, the racial profiling is a huge issue and focal point. And I think JD has brought that up before, stating that we couldn't understand how that feels.

Whether GZ "profiled" or not is irrelevant. We have laws and we go by facts. If JD and others want to shake their fists in the air and chant slogans they are of course free to do so, but TM was in no position to know GZ personally or read minds and know he was "profiling" and even if he was it does not justify beating the mess out of GZ nor does it dismiss self defense.
BTW when I was a kid I got the business from the police. It had to do with where I was at and what time mostly and my age but not my skin color.
