RE VIGILANTISM AND RACIAL PROFILING RE ZIMMERMAN

I see these as interrelated phenomena, both in this country and elsewhere. But they are each very complicated subjects or groups of subjects.

For example, one can have, for instance, also as interrelated phenomena, clan profiling within a single so called ethnic group.

Or one has ideology, or political party, profiling, as in communists versus fascists (very popular in the early to mid 20th century), which would no doubt cross so called racial, religious, or ethnic,  lines. 

One can have religious profiling, as in the case of Catholics, Muslims, or Jews (none of which do I consider to be a separate racial group),

within an ostensibly, merely mostly whitish, pool of people, some citizens, some not.

Re Murder 2 versus manslaughter:
Murder 2

(2)The unlawful killing of a human being, when perpetrated by any act imminently dangerous to another and evincing a depraved mind regardless of human life, although without any premeditated design to effect the death of any particular individual, is murder in the second degree and constitutes a felony of the first degree, punishable by imprisonment for a term of years not exceeding life or as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.


Manslaughter
