[ quote:
ORIGINAL: papassion Since 33% of people who used the "stand your ground law" as a defense are black, and blacks only represent about 16% of the population, even a fourth grader who knows math can tell you the "stand your ground" laws have helped blacks more than whites. That would have to be a pretty ignorant fourth grader. They can usually add apples to apples instead of trying to add apples and assholes. A more rational comparison that might be made by a less ignorant fourth grader would compare socio-economic demographics of the robbed and the robbers which would speak directly to motive whereas comparing skin color speaks directly to the racial motivation of the provacateur.
