You can always tell what is standing in the way of their next step by what they most strongly oppose, or advocate.

SYG stands in the way of what?

Thugs preying on civilized people. They must want that with a passion.

Somebody on another thread said it well: For some in the "inner city", crime is a career path, and the existence of armed victims is an OSHA violation.

SYG and concealed carry empower the individual to defend lives and property under attack. In the abstract, by advocating the repeal of Florida's SYG law, the Martin family and their enablers are now advocating reduction of the power of the individual in favor of the power of the state. In other words, Martin's parents seem to be advocating statism at the expense of individual liberty.

What Martin's parents should be advocating is an increase in moral family values. The lack of the instillment of moral family values encourages inner city children, particularly male inner city children, to lie, cheat, and steal. However, advocating stronger moral family values would require the Martin family to recognize that they themselves are responsible for the death of their son by not bringing him up properly.
