ABC caught broadcasting fake news again.

In the video, ABC falsely claims that Zimmerman used the stand your ground defense.

I will say Florida has got some serious problems with their gun laws. It's true that Zimmerman did not invoke it, but the 'Stand Your Ground' law has been something of a problem for them for a few years

What do you think about this?

How Stand Your Ground Relates To George Zimmerman

“If George Zimmerman was not engaged in an unlawful activity and was attacked in any place where he had a right to be, he had no duty to retreat and had the right to stand his ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he reasonably believed that it was necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.”

from your link...in the paragraph just above your quote......

It's very true that Zimmerman's narrative holds that he never had the opportunity to retreat, and thus SYG was not relevant to his specific defense.

No, he invoked "white privilege".
Or it was imposed on him when
he was pegged as a "white Hispanic"
Muhammed
Maybe if he'd waited longer to do this under the Trump administration, would have been reported as a "white nationalist"

Whatever people want to hear

What? That the SYG defense has been controversial since it was passed in Florida??? That it was brought up in several shooting cases since it's inception? Yes I read it.

But did you read the OP and watch the video in the OP that said Zimmerman had used the SYG, when in fact he did NOT

It’s a lot more of a problem for the folks they stood against. Bullet holes have consequences.

SYG laws are not gun laws.

Why do you suppose that some people often misrepresent SYG laws as being gun laws?

Personally, what was your motivation?
