Jesse Jackson: Boycott Florida Over 'Stand Your Ground'
US News & World Report ^ | July 26, 2013 | Elizabeth Flock

Posted on 07/27/2013 12:23:41 PM PDT by kevcol

"We can boycott Florida, cut conventions in Florida, for its 'stand your ground' laws," said Jackson, speaking on a panel at the National Urban League's annual conference in Philadelphia. "If we can boycott South Africa and bring it down, we should boycott Florida and bring it down."

Can someone please explain to me how “stand your ground” is a racial issue?

The angelic black Trayvon Martin was shot by a "non-black" and the JJs of the world thought "stand your ground" would be used as a defense.

The defense did not use that argument, but since a black angel was killed it's still more fun and profitable to call the law racist than to be content with the verdict.

All you have to do is think like Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton and it becomes crystal clear. /smile

I wish Jesse Jackson and his follower would boycott my state.

The success of the boycott will be measurable, by how much the welfare rolls and food stamps are reduced, if successful Florida should be rolling in the coin.

Dear Fellow Liberal,

Your name and address was given to the Obama Campaign for Change and your change has come. This document is your ticket to the Progressive Utopia we all strive for. Because of your dedication to the campaign and to our lord and savior Obama, we have a second term and we have total control of the federal government.

Unfortunately we still do not have control of all the states, but this is temporary. You did your job and this is your reward:

Pack Your Bags.......

One Free House in Detroit!

That is correct an absolutely free (*) home in Detroit, the most progressive and successful city in America at implementing our dreams. You will never have to worry about having those right-wing, Christian bigots as neighbors ever again. Just you and your fellow leftists and your EBT cards inheriting this heaven on Earth!

You haven’t called U-Haul yet? What are you waiting for?

** Condition of free home varies... property taxes assessed at highest possible valuation from when home was in peak condition.

I can’t see the downside of a boycott by race-obsessed malcontents.

Israel has the state with the most Jews in it and Florida has a lot of retired Jews in it. It is no wonder that the black anti-Semite would suggest such a thing. I am glad with my old work in Jews Against Jackson.

Jesse Jackson in one sentence just increased properties values by 20 percent in all of Florida. Now if we could just keep leftards out of every other decent state we’d be set.

They tried boycott in South Carolina, and where did that get them? No where fast.

Florida WELCOMES the boycott of Jesse Jackson and all of his followers--PLEASE continue this boycott until you have exhausted your last breath.

PLEASE STAY AWAY. We applaud your decision!

Let the idiots come to Michigan and debate Rick Ector.

Rick Ector: The George Zimmerman verdict(video)

Ector is also a great teacher of the racist roots of gun control.

For some reason, pro-thug liberals really hate the idea of people defending themselves.

Put simply-—
Jesse Jackson and other black leaders want white people who are legal gun owners to be unable to defend them themselves against younger, stronger black assailants. This is roughly what is going on. To make legal gun ownership less useful and more prosecutable when the weapon is used in self defense

Generalizing-
White own guns legally
Blacks own them illegally so what good is a stand your ground law to such a person

Could you imagine if they all just left Florida and took all the great things they offer to a society with them?!? THAT would be a real shame!! I don’t know how Florida could survive!

Well at least we won’t see a future “love child” of Jesse’s in Florida!

But let’s say that Jesse’s intent is for every black to pack up and leave Florida. What would be the impact? what would change?

Florida's crime rate.

"Just plain dumb....After Tray had finished killing George, Tray would have been tried under stand your ground...and would have gone free."

How do you figure that?
