Two British Tourists Get Lost.......

I'm sorry to even write about this issue because nothing good has come of it thus far. I saw in todays paper I see folks protesting about the Martin case. I would like to ask the same folks that were protesting today, why they did not protest when the two British tourists became lost in Newtown and were savagely robbed and shot. If that was not racial profiling, then I don't know what can be termed "racial profiling". There were no civil right investigations when the tourist drunkenly wandered where there were others standing around that were african american. They were not robbed, just the two white tourists. How is that not racial profiling. We did not hear a thing from the President on that murder. It seemingly went through the system. I am not saying that anyone should have been killed in the Martin case. I agree Mr. Zimmerman should have stayed in his car. But I truly feel that Mr. Zimmerman's motive had nothing to do with race.
