A reasonable person looking at both hypotheticals realize the likelyhood of an incident is high. Why is society at large shocked when one occurs?

because a black kid walking in a white neighborhood shouldn't be equated to a neo-nazi walking in a black neighborhood. a black kid in a white neighborhood should be treated the same way a white kid in a white neighborhood would be. society should be appalled if what you were saying is true
but it's not. white-on-black crime in predominantly white neighborhoods isn't exactly an epidemic sweeping the nation. martin had a reasonable expectation of safety. zimmerman was probably unreasonable in following him.
but that's a far cry from murder
