It is sad...
It is very sad that Trayvon Martin is dead.
What is more sad is the fact that this will now become fodder for the usual race baiters and anti-gun nuts to load their cannons with.
Everybody complains that they did not automatically arrest the shooter. The purpose of the law was to protect shooters who were defending themselves legally and legitimately.
I've been watching the news, even on Fox news, they refer to neighborhood watchmen as the "assailant." I have heard many stories already on the news of how the assailant followed Trayvon Martin and shot him.
The assailant claims that when he was returning to his car he was attacked by Trayvon Martin. The neighborhood watchmen did have injuries consistent with that story. I don't know what the truth is but let me ask you a question. If you were involved in a self-defense situation where someone attacked you and you shot them dead, you believe that you should be arrested and thrown in jail even though you have injuries consistent with your story.
It may be that the neighborhood watchmen of the racist and out to kill any ****** he could find. Time will tell. Would you want to rot in jail until they figured it out?
Just some thoughts I
