Justice for Trayvon Martin, do away with the "Stand Your Ground" law in Florida.

Created by M.T. on November 08, 2012

The laws expand on the so-called Castle Doctrine, which allow a person to defend himself with deadly force inside his own home (or castle) without first having to retreat. Stand Your Ground eliminates the need to retreat, even outside your own home, so long as you reasonably believe you are in danger.

The people who are using this law are not law abiding citizens.The people who are using this law are thugs and gangs and killers. There was nothing in this statute ever intended to protect somebody who was pursuing or confronting other people.
