I would like to throw this out for general discussion and that is why has no one asked any of these right wing talk show hosts why Trayvon Martin does not have the right to stand his ground against some one who followed him and may have indicated he was armed. And If Trayvon was armed and stood his ground putting Zimmerman in the ground then Trayvon would also be free on bail right?

This is a prime example of why these cowardly bastards need, and love their guns so much. They would never have the courage to walk up to someone and ask what they hell they are doing there ,unless they have a gun in their pocket. You pull a gun on me and I beat the crap out of you. That gives you the right to shoot me. Where is my right to beat your ass for pulling the gun on me? Rightwing coward mentality!

I have said it many times before on other discussion boards and blogs that Trayvon Martin did stand his ground and that George Zimmerman was the aggressor...he was armed and went after Trayvon to start trouble. I found this interesting story about 'Stand You Ground' at Salon. It is about John McNeil, a Black man from Cobb County, Georgia that shot and killed a white man who had threatened him on his property...needless to say, John McNeil is now serving life in prison for 'Standing His Ground'. I bet if the roles were reversed and it was the white man that did the shooting, he would be walking around a free man.
