Change the stand your grounds law, in southern States

Created by D.S. on December 10, 2012

:A stand-your-ground law states that a person may justifiably use force in self-defense when there is reasonable belief of an unlawful threat, without an obligation to retreat first. The concept sometimes exists in statutory law and sometimes through common law precedents. One key distinction is whether the concept only applies to defending a home or vehicle, or whether it applies to all lawfully occupied locations.
Under these legal concepts, a person is justified in using deadly force in certain situations and the "stand your ground" law would be a defense or immunity to criminal charges and civil suit.

More Racist guys are using this to Kill young Black guys and get off with murder. for instance a young black boy was killed in georgia at the gas station for listening to music.
