Tracy Martin — father of slain teenager Trayvon Martin — was in the capital to continue his fight against Florida's "stand your ground" law...
... took part in a Florida A&M panel Thursday called "Stand Your Ground Law: Where Do We Go From Here?" Martin called for a repeal, while others suggested changes in the language of "stand your ground."
Williams has backed the repeal, but also supports tweaks to the current legislation.....

Does ANYONE there know or care that SYG was NOT PART OF GEORGE ZIMMERMAN'S DEFENSE?
The intellectual feebleness boggles the mind.
WOW, she’s really going to town on this publicity .
Maybe she needs to understand the laws before she seeks more publicity .
Here is what I back: telling your kid not to sucker punch or threaten someone who is walking around their OWN neighborhood, ESPECIALLY if you have already been suspended from school and are a juvenile deliquent with a foul-mouthed twitter account.
If some thug jumps you and starts beating the crap out of you - please just stand there and let them.
Otherwise, you’re a racist and we can’t have that.
Now go pay your taxes, your government is broke.
/sarc(???)
He
But, yes, he is going to town with it.
Mr. Martin—Your 15-minutes of fame have long expired.
Law-abiding citizens (the very opposite of your thug-wannabe spawn) are tired of your line.
Please go stuff yourself.
The liberals have repeated the big lie over and over.
No, they don’t care that the stand your ground law had nothing to do with the Zimmerman case. For unknown reasons, the liberals jumped on this case as a reason to repeal stand your ground laws. Stevie Wonder said he will not perform in states with stand your ground laws. The idiocy of the logic here is astounding. Yet the liberals and their useful idiots in the media are carrying that message that we need to repeal stand your ground laws because of the Travyon Martin case.
This case shows the lack of logic on the part of the liberals. One issue has nothing to do with the other, yet they are pushing this anyway, and having some success.
Hosted by a State University-——does that mean they paid appearance money for this guy whose only claim to fame is being the daddy of a Juvenile delinquent?
His only expertise being shacked up while his son was buying dope, and attacking other people?
The “judge” muddied the SYG waters by inserting it into the Jury Instructions, even though it was avoided during the trial.
How about a “Don’t ambush someone and attempt to murder them because they walked in your general direction for half a block” law?
actually at one time, some Martin supporters used the STAND YOUR GROUND premise to explain away Martin bashing in Z...they want it both ways I guess....
People will go to astonishing lengths to avoid acknowledging that they did a lousy job as parents.
Yet another myth that will live forever in the minds of the ignorant.
1/3 of the stand your ground homicide cases in the state of Florida are brought by black people, mostly men who defended themselves against attackers, again predomininantly black.So I guess Tracy would sooner have all those black men in jail for defending themselves where they would spend anywhere from 15-25 years w/o a stand your ground defense...
NOBODY in media talks about this...I wonder why?
Statistics are that...merely numbers from which we can reach some conclusions

Tracy should be advocating for better parenting with himself as a prime example of a failure.
Decent citizens, of all colors and ethnicities, should be able to kill thugs like Trayvon when attacked by them, wherever that attack might occur.
What’s holding up the civil suit?
How about shut up and go back home.
