I don't like that stand your ground law either. It brings in confrontation as a tool. If one can get away , they should consider that option first.
The stand your ground law has no connection to the Martin case as Zimmerman was held on the ground and couldn't run away or defray the violence.
You do realize that with the "Stand Your Ground" law that you don't literally have to be standing, right? It also doesn't change the fact that Zimmerman's a killer and a murderer that was allowed to walk.

The one law that actually helps blacks instead of hurting them and blacks want it overturned because it's "racist". Makes sense.
SYG is applied at the trial, not just by yelling "stand your ground" like "shotgun" for the front seat. Your argument is flawed from the first sentence.
I bet everyone of those has an armed security of some sort too. I love famous people and their stupid views. I wouldn't pay to see any of those acts ive heard of anyway, most I haven't heard of before.
Sad thing is by boycotting an area, they are really only hurting themselves. Are they going to boycott all US states that allow self defense? I think that's all 50, they'll have to start performing overseas only.
