to Isikoff, his calls on 'suspicious activity' were solely on black men and never on anyone white. Whether Zimmerman volunteered the information or was asked, as would be expected, by the police operator, has little significance, imo.

The fact that ALL the calls he made for 'suspicious activity' were about black men, ALL of them, points more clearly to profiling, imo.
