Re: Ex-Saints DE Will Smith killed; wife shot after traffic accident
That law need to be done away with. That law is giving individuals the right to be the judge, jury, and executioner. Don't think that once it get to jury they will look at this action as overkill and throw the book at individual, in most cases a person with high incomes or white killing black will have the case thrown out before it ever see a jury because of "stand your ground". Anytime someone take a person life it should be mandatory that it go to trial if the defendant proclaims self defense. The only acception to the stand your ground law should be if you defending your home.
