One would think that anybody sporting a moniker with the word sanity, would understand that "Stand your Ground" should apply to the citizens of Florida. Not just the WHITE (or, as in this case, honorary white when stalking blacks) citizens! From my earlier post:- ""One of them said, I reached for my phone(dubious, when facing a possible aggressor). The other without doubt saw that move toward a pocket by a non uniformed man who might easily have been a mugger, and couldn't possibly predict what would come out of that pocket, but might very reasonably have surmised that it would be a gun."" Are you suggesting that he should have stood and waited to be shot? Isn't that the purpose of "Stand your Ground"? The prosecution rolled over and threw the game because they had absolutely no intention of securing a conviction. So in the end nobody presented Trayvon Martin's case. Don T.
