Michael Dunn, killer of Jordan Davis trial thread

[Marvel]

demonstrations look

Fatigue...black people are tired and are at the point of giving up. Next victim will probably have no protesters. We are getting close to accepting our fate in America. That is how it was 100 years ago, we just accepted shyt.

The white kid was clearly in the middle of committing a crime. All of the other mainstream stories involved innocent black kids who weren't doing anything when they got shot.

An excerpt:

- Defendants claiming "stand your ground" are more likely to prevail if the victim is black. Seventy-three percent of those who killed a black person faced no penalty compared to 59 percent of those who killed a white.

- People often go free under "stand your ground" in cases that seem to make a mockery of what lawmakers intended. One man killed two unarmed people and walked out of jail. Another shot a man as he lay on the ground. Others went free after shooting their victims in the back.In nearly a third of the cases the Times analyzed, defendants initiated the fight, shot an unarmed person or pursued their victim — and still went free.

- Similar cases can have opposite outcomes. Depending on who decided their cases, some drug dealers claiming self-defense have gone to prison while others have been set free. The same holds true for killers who left a fight, only to arm themselves and return. Shoot someone from your doorway? Fire on a fleeing burglar? Your case can swing on different interpretations of the law by prosecutors, judge or jury.

Where does it says, "70% of the victims in SYG law are black."?

• Nearly 70 percent of those who have invoked “stand your ground” to avoid prosecution have gone free.

• 73 percent of those who killed a black person walked away without penalty, while 59 percent of those who killed a white person went free.

• Attorneys are increasingly invoking Stand Your Ground in ways state legislators didn’t originally intend, and use of this defense has grown five-fold in nonfatal cases between 2008 and 2011.

• Among the incidents where defendants walked free: “One man killed two unarmed people and walked out of jail. Another shot a man as he lay on the ground. Others went free after shooting their victims in the back.”

• There are three times more concealed carry permits in Florida since 2005, when Florida passed the law.

But but there was one black guy who got away with killing a young white kid so that means the law isn't racist.
