I think a lot of black people are too ignorant of the law to cite it.

Anyway, holding your gun sideways and gunning down some random guy because he's from another gang doesn't really count as self-defensee anyway.

I was sitting in a lit. class and the professor was ranting that black males aged 16-28 are "singled out," citing the fact that they make up the largest prison population, so therefore they must be getting picked on! It didn't seem to occur to her that that demographic commits the most crimes.

“Just think about changing the race,” Ogletree said. “I want to see the first black man who uses the ‘stand your ground’ defense and see if it works —”

He really means he wants to see a black man use the ‘stand your ground’ defense after he kills a white person just so he can see if it would work.

Nice, real nice.

If a black man defends himself against some white punk robber, I'd support the black man.
It's the situation, not the race.
Race pimps only see the race, not the situation.

I would guess that black perps entering white households are far more common than the converse. Call it what it is: a black mentality that feels they’re protected, and can take what they want.

Here is a close, but not exact same case. In Iowa we don’t have ‘stand your ground’ or even ‘castle’, more like ‘scream and run’. I have heard a sheriff say the same thing the prosecutor said in the case - don’t be afraid of trials, the law worked. I guess they can discount the fact that the guy lost almost everything, spent time in jail, and did nothing wrong.

That comment is unfounded.

We are still waiting several years for the first white guy to break into a black guy’s house. /s

There must be one out there somewhere.

First he’d have to find an example of whites breaking into a black person’s house, and for the life of me all I ever see are stories of blacks home invading white folks houses.

Dr. Charles Ogletree, who taught both Barack and Michelle Obama at Harvard Law School, aid during the National Action Network convention Wednesday that the slain teen Trayvon Martin is a “symbol of whats wrong” with America.

Mr Ogletree is correct.It *is* a symbol of a very serious sociological problem here."No Limits N***a"..."f**k some bi**h" for starters.

Hmmmm...white Omar Bonilla, I think 2008? He was unarmed, shot dead by a black man under the stand your ground act.

I think this was in Florida.

Full title: Obama’s Harvard law professor: ‘Stand your ground’ law wouldn’t protect black men...apparently it does a pretty good job of protecting hispanics, though.....
