Nothing in this case has anything to do with "Stand Your Ground" (which is the name the MEDIA gave that particular law).
It's strictly self-defense...which is a pretty universal concept.
Use of the word "stalked" or "stalking" is an inflammatory way to try and create a picture of something that takes one "side" over the other.
You know that "stalk" is a term used in hunting an animal. And by using that word you are trying to convince people that the Hispanic guy was hunting the black guy like an animal.
I don't understand the reasoning for that.
That kind of talk is what will cause a lot of violence between the Hispanic and Black community.
Is it unreasonable to expect a discussion that doesn't use foolish language?
Probably not on GFY I guess.
