From the article... "'Shoot-first' laws have already cost too many lives. In Florida alone, deaths due to self-defense have tripled since the law was enacted.
The real question is, how many of the shooters were then convicted of a wrongful death? "Stand your ground laws" were enacted to make it clear that should one person cause another person to be in eminent fear of their life, they have the right to use deadly force. Moral of the story is simple, don't threaten another person in Florida or it might be the last thing you do.
Opposition to "stand your ground" should be tagged "protect the perps". It would be more accurate than calling the current law "shoot first".

How about my buddies mom who was beatin and killed at an atm by 6 black guys......you are taking this to personal they are just showing that black on white crime happens and most of the time it never makes the headlines like a white on Blake crime ...also most white on black is considered hate crime where black on white almost never is
Sent from my Desire HD
that is cause most white on black crime are hate crimes. Which means to attack an individual solely on the basis of the color or sexual preference..
and most time when a black on white crime occurs, other factors are involved mostly robbery, like in the case of your friends mom
not saying one is better than the other, just putting that out there.
of course I am just guessing at the numbers.. call me the media, but I will repost next week with a new number, and then change it again..

This thread is about race. If Zim were black this thread would not be here.........if Zim were
black Al, Jesse, Crump, Obama & Holder would not have said a f 'n thing about it.
For this event to gain any traction the news media & race hustlers needed to
invent the white hispanic.

i beg to differ this thread is not about race. This thread is about a NHW guy shooting a teen in "self defense"
there is nothing in the title of this thread that mentions anything about race
you made this a race thread with statements like above...
so you are playing the race card to get people to read your post, just like the media... HMMMMMMM...

Colored.....negro....black.....African American......it changes with time
.........what came in style first....black or African American..
Long, long time ago when I was in high school I worked on weekends at a business that
had colored restrooms.
Benjamin Crump, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton made this whole incident a race thread.
Right, the original pitch sold by PR guy Ryan Julison was Zimmerman is white, Trayvon was black and "race is the 600 lb. elephant in the room." -- Benjamin Crump quoted in the March 7 Reuters article in the first post in this thread.
Interestingly, Julison announced May 5 "Spent today preparing a media plan for the parents of Tyler Clementi, which will follow the May 21 sentencing of Dharun Ravi."
Yes, they have a foundation, and yes, they want money. Sound familiar?
