Stand Your Ground is a law in Florida that allows someone to stand their ground and shoot someone in self defense. This is how Trayvon Martin was murdered, even though the pig who killed him got out of his car. This law favors white people because in US history, white people have always been able to stand their ground.
Would Trayvon Martin have been able to stand his ground? No. As a black boy in America it is out of the question that Trayvon would've been able to stand his ground. Even if the situations would have been reversed, white America would have been calling for Trayvon's head on a golden platter- and they would've gotten it.
