walking while black - Trayvon Martin

[Disciple]

Or else you are a crazy bitch for stessing so hard over the one black kid in America not killed by another black kid. Like this one is better than the others.

This case is unique because of the mystery surrounding those few minutes and the stand your ground law. Your post makes it sound like it should be disregarded because he's just another black kid and black kids die all the time so what's the big deal?

Yes I know there's a larger problem but that doesn't make this case inconsequential IMO.

User all cracker said is if it was a black on black death, it would not make headlines.

If this is about the stand your ground law then I think it's a shame that Trayvons death is being used as a political tool and the people who would do that suck.

Some good may come from this awful mess if it forces the Florida legislature to re-examine the SYG law.

I doubt very much that the legislature considered a scenario like this when they drafted the law. I also doubt that the Florida courts have had a chance to apply the law to a situation like this.

The two biggest problems with the law as applied here are the fact that both M and Z's proponents will claim each had the legal right to be where he was and that their proponents will claim each acted in self defense.

Conviction as charged, to a lesser offense or acquittal, I'll bet that the law gets changed in some fashion when the dust settles from this case.
