Supposedly Jesse Jackson is in Houston today to politic for the repeal of the castle doctrine here in Texas.
I guess he is concerned for the safety of his supporters.
Was that to harsh?

Re: Stand Your Ground in Danger
Part of today's editorial in USA Today

"They jumped too quickly to the conclusion that they were prohibited from arresting Zimmerman because of Florida's controversial "stand your ground" law, which allows the use of deadly force when people reasonably believe they're facing bodily harm. That ill-advised statute, adopted by about two dozen other states as well, is likely to be on trial along with Zimmerman, who told police he acted in self defense."
The law will be on trial as well as Zimmerman. I guess if Zimmerman wins, the law loses.

Re: Stand Your Ground in Danger
This morning on HLN (CNN headline news) it was all Trayvon Miller. Al Sharpton made a speech, which they showed which was essentially going to war against "stand your ground".
Sounded like it would be his life's work from now on.
