Florida's Stand Your Ground Laws
Benefit Those with Arrest Records

The 119 people known to have killed and
claimed "stand your ground" were arrested
a combined 327 times prior to the incident
for major crimes, including assault, battery,
theft and probation violation. A third had
four or more major arrests, and a quarter
had 1-3 major arrests.

I imagine they are more likely to be in places where they get attacked
more often. If we said they were "poor people living in depressed
neighborhoods" you would be defending them.


Bull****. A criminal is a criminal. Did you even read the article?
