In the wake of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csmonitor.com\/USA\/Justice\/2012\/0320\/Trayvon-Martin-case-use-of-Stand-Your-Ground-law-or-pursuit-of-a-black-teen\">the Martin shooting<\/a> in Florida comes a recent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/2012\/03\/23\/us-usa-florida-shooting-law-idUSBRE82M06L20120323\">op-ed piece<\/a> by Tom Brown for Reuters masquerading as reporting the &#8220;case&#8221; being built for the deconstruction of so called &#8220;stand your ground&#8221; laws.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>On June 5, 2006, not long after Florida enacted the first &#8220;Stand Your Ground&#8221; law in the United States, unarmed Jason Rosenbloom was shot in the stomach and chest by his next-door neighbor after a shouting match over trash.<\/p>\n<p>Exactly what happened that day in Clearwater, Florida, is still open to dispute. Kenneth Allen, a retired police officer, said he shot Rosenbloom because he was trying to storm into his house.<\/p>\n<p>Rosenbloom told Reuters in a telephone interview this week he never tried to enter the house and was in Allen&#8217;s yard, about 10 feet (3 meters) from his front door, when he was shot moments after he put his hands up.<\/p>\n<p>Now living in Hawaii, Rosenbloom said he had been unaware of the growing outrage over last month&#8217;s shooting in Sanford, Florida, of an unarmed black teenager by a neighborhood watch captain.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The language in the rest of the article only grows more grotesque. Then again this is the same agency which employs &#8220;journalists&#8221; to &#8220;embed&#8221; with insurgents in Iraq then has the audacity to complain when <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weeklystandard.com\/blogs\/collateral-murder-baghdad-anything\">they&#8217;re caught in the cross fire.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This morning the Christian Science Monitor ran an Op-Ed by NYU professor Jonathan Zimmerman, titled <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csmonitor.com\/Commentary\/Opinion\/2012\/0323\/Where-s-the-Trayvon-Martin-petition-about-gun-control\"><strong>Where&#8217;s the Trayvon Martin petition about gun control?<\/strong><\/a>. It pretty clearly lays out, what I think will be, the strategy they&#8217;ll use going forward, race card and all.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8230;we need to ask whether any private citizen should be carrying a concealed weapon, and whether \u201cStand Your Ground\u201d measures make people trigger-happy. And most of all, we need to think about the most common victims of our lax gun laws: African Americans.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s a new angle in the campaign to strip you of your rights to defend your &hellip; <a title=\"Witness the unfolding campaign to strip your rights\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=29242\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Witness the unfolding campaign to strip your rights<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":619,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[82,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29242","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gun-grabbing-fascists","category-media"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29242","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/619"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=29242"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29242\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=29242"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=29242"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=29242"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
