Agreed. Although this case has NOTHING to do with the "Stand your Ground" law.

This case is about some asswipe who stalked a kid, chased him down and then shot him after instigating the altercation.
Show me ANYTHING in the "Stand your Ground" law that covers that reality.
Using that law is an abuse of it, by his lawyer.

Yup. Stop interjecting your damn facts or the extremists will have nothing with which to argue.

the 911 dispatcher on this incident who told him not to follow the teen.
Could he have provoked the situation that lead to the shooting?
A) The dispatcher said "We don't need you to do that. He never specifically said NOT to do so.

Stand Your Ground <> Stalk Through The Neighborhood.
Agreed.

Listen to the audio yourself. See if you hear what the asswipe says at 1:52 on the audio.

You tell me if he says "fucking coons"

This POS hunted this kid down and killed him intentionally. He was looking for glory and wanted an altercation.
IMO, he deserves all that he gets ... and I hope he rots in jail for it.
