George Zimmerman, who shot and killed Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida, has been arrested and charged with 2nd degree murder. Hopefully, everyone will get their day in court. In addition to George Zimmerman being tried, the Florida law nick-named “Stand Your Ground” will undergo scrutiny.

Zimmerman turned himself in and is now in custody.
I hope he can get a fair trial.
This story is just tragic. An unarmed kid with a cell phone and a bag of candy shouldn’t have to die. It sure sounds like the “Stand your Ground” law is being stretched to the limit. This case is why I simply don’t think everyone has a right to have a firearm. How totally irresponsible.
How will the community react to this news? I couldn’t believe Zimmerman was from our area. Frankly, I would be worried too if this thug were following me, especially if I had an inkling he was armed.
