In Remembrance of Trayvon Martin

I was saddened by the breaking news headline story of the 17 year old, Trayvon Martin who was shot by a man who felt threatened by him. A young teen holding a packet of Skittles and a bottle of Iced Tea, dressed in a hoodie looked threatening to grown up man? What on earth is this world coming to?
Many times and in different cities, I have had a group of 4 to 6 chaps who practically took up the entire side walk or road I was walking on but I didn't draw out a gun and shoot! This law in Florida, Stand your Ground, is the most preposterous thing I have heard about.  It practically gives vigilantes and other radicals, the permission to draw out a gun or other weapon anytime they feel threatened.
We are still to hear all the facts on this matter, but the fact that the young teen lay for 3 days on a slab without the police making with his parents is just incredulous! When is the senseless killing going to end? And when are tougher laws on gun control going to be made?
My son and I wore our hoodies as a sign of respect for youn Trayvon Martin. I do hope, justice will be served and expedited quickly.
RIP Trayvon Martin.
