An why the call for boycotts to FL....they are not the only state to have had such an issue...just the most recent and upfront....
The Florida one is actually far more extreme than the other ones. For example, Pennsylvania requires that the other person is armed, and a hearing is required. Not all laws are made equally; furthermore, were any 16 year olds killed in other states as a result of their "stand your ground" laws?
