The fact that we're still having to suffer this evil isht in 2014 is simply UNbelievable!?!

I'm still having difficulty processing it. And I believe that many Black-Americans feel like me, ANGRY, heartbroken, absolutely frustrated and, quite frankly, Terrified.

"Stand Your Ground", IMO, is doing EXACTLY what it was designed to do…give license primarily to RACIST white men to provoke an altercation with, AND THEN KILL, Black men, based on some manufactured fear and lies. If those Black men are young and/or UNARMED, well all the better. Racist White killers know they can use *SYG* to kill Blacks with impunity. They know they can count on (mostly White) Jurors to deadlock or even acquit them outright.

It's todays equivalent of legal lynchings sanctioned by todays equivalent of a Jim Crow law.

I would like to add a few things. First, when white kids are blaring music in their cars how come white people don't say anything to them. And for those of you who say this doesn't happen or it is rare, your a lie.

Second you hit it on the head this is the second black child that has been murdered by a white man and he has gotten away with it.

Thirdly this is disturbing. This is the second black child/teen…there has been a black man and black woman who were killed for just asking for help. And there were 2 black elderly brothers shot and murdered.

Is this the new trend to slaughter black people and there is no anger or outrage by the victims families or other black people. You already know they are not going to be upset but what about you. Some of you think it will never happen to you but guess again as you see, if it can happen to one it can happen to all no matter sex, age, or education level.

Get it together people.
