A top Republican joined President Barack Obama's call to review so-called "Stand Your Ground" laws in the aftermath of the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the 2012 shooting of black teen Trayvon Martin.
Sen. John McCain, Ariz., a prominent Republican who's been known to break ranks with fellow members of the GOP at times, urged state legislatures to review Stand Your Ground laws in the wake of the Zimmerman trial, which became a national flashpoint for race relations in America.
"I can also see that Stand Your Ground laws may be something that needs to be reviewed by the Florida legislature or any other legislature that has passed such legislation," McCain said on CNN.
Asked whether his home state legislature should consider revising its own similar law, McCain said yes.
"I think that, yes, I do, and I'm confident that the members of the Arizona legislature will because it is a very controversial legislation," he said.....

Now we have the cowardice contingent reporting in. Stand Your Ground is not in McCain’s vocabulary.
That friggin old fool McCain is unbelievable!
2008 is not an isolated incident. The man is a loser.
“How much longer is he in there for? Another three long years?”
Yeah, he should do himself and everyone else a favor and go over to the Dem side. Spend the rest of his erm in peace. Ad, give te rest of us some peace too....
Can this guy get anymore repulsive?
Hey, Juan, I voted for the girl in 2008.
Too bad you were along for the ride.
Manchurian Candidate—the original.
See #47—GMTA.
I’m beginning to think the Democrats have some really good dirt hanging over John’s head. You represent Arizona republicans McCain, not California liberals.
John McCain, you are an idiot.
When was I supposed to give up might right to defend myself?
Better still, when were criminal aggressors given the right to intimidate people into running?
Copycat!
john—will you please retire!
McCain is an enemy of the free citizens of whats left of America
The GOP is dead.
McBlame pimped for hussein in ‘08 and he’s still up to his nose.
“Is there some form of mental disease rampant in Arizona? How does this cretin keep being elected”?
BTTT!

BTTT!
McCain is the poster-boy example for the repeal of the 17th amendment. If we didn’t have the 17th, the Arizona state legislature could have recalled him and replaced him years ago, with little trouble or bother.
Just think how things would have been different...
Nah this is a trade off for McCain. He does Nero’s bidding on this and Nero lets McCain and Linda Graham play war in Syria.
Primarying McCain is a waste of time. The Arizona Republicans will rally around him as they did the last time. And the results will be the same as last time, a McCain win.
