You are going to have to prove your assertion that blacks commit crime at higher rates than other races. Because they definitely get arrested and incarcerated at higher rates, but that does not automatically correlate to actually committing more crime in general.
Okay, how can you use the Trayvon Martin case AGAINST the stand-your-ground laws?

It's a combination of even more guns in circulation and no duty to retreat if you feel threatened

I'm pretty sure bypassing a SYG hearing leaves you open to civil suit, and that's probably proper

My understanding is that they haven't forfeited the SYG option, just not used it yet.
