Pictures are better than words, the moving pictures are better yet

As the speaker notes here, the law in Florida should more properly be called Stand Someone Else's Ground. As another speaker notes, it is an insane law. Remove it. NOW.

I'm not sure I agree with the view int he following video that the City manager should have fired the police chief. But clearly the police chief did not do a good job, clearly other members of that police department appear not to have done a good job for that community either. But it makes sense that given the problems with the police performance, waiting before taking some action wasn't a good idea. I wonder if in the absence of the police chief, if the next person to act in that role in the interim is going to be any more professional and effective? Or is it going to be replacing one failure with someone equally bad? It's time for an arrest, it is overdue.
The law is bad, it has to go. It has to go in Florida, it has to go everywhere else that it is Stand Someone Else's Ground, and at the same time, gun carry law failure should be given a good look as well.
