With all that said - does anyone but me find it somewhat ironic that Holder and Obama are trying to get rid of a law that - when invoked in court - has allowed more black defendants (both % wise and in sheer numbers) in Florida go free after a shooting than whites?

Stand your ground laws - when invoked and enforced properly - save lives - without regards to race. How is that a bad thing?
