Thread Name: BS: Killed for being black? Florida today
Subject: RE: BS: Killed for being black? Florida today
That guy was on the cell phone, he was ordered by the police to not leave his vehicle. Instead he confronts the kid and kills him and claims the Florida "stand your ground law" that says if you are in fear of your life deadly force is ok ... NUTS ... in NYS he would have been immediately arrested for murder since the law requires you to avoid the situation first and foremost. They allow some of these states to let anyone carry weapons. Then again most of them have a drinking age of 18 or so also (don't know about Florida). There is no wonder why most of the really nasty gangs are in that state. Texas is just as bad, they have gun shows 1 mile from the Mexican border so we can really arm all the drug gangs properly and they walk back over to Mexico unchecked... when is enough enough. It will take a federal firearms act to put the leash on this stuff
