walking while black - Trayvon Martin

[Jimbone]

First you say that it doesn't matter if George was the aggressor and started the fight as long as he feared for his life. Now you're saying that you don't have the right to attack some crazy person chasing you if you fear for your life. So which one is it?

First, I was pointing out that the Florida law says it doesn't matter George was the aggressor. The law specifically delineates that even if you start it, you can still defend yourself if you are in fear of grave harm or death.

You have an absolute right to self defense if your life is in danger, but that does not include being able to physically confront someone following you. Ask a cop, lawyer, or judge if you can do that. They'll tell you no, you can't.

Not my laws or constructs BTW. I didn't make the rules.
