Ben, laws are designed to prevent people from being idiots. Not encourage idiotic behavior, especially when the result can be lethal. This isn't a case of self defense, Zimmerman was not being threatened.

Let's not become so calloused that we miss the essential fact here: A totally innocent person is now dead b/c there is a law on the books that allows people to play cop without any training or qualifications to do so.

PM me with the link of the post you'd like me to respond to.
