Stand Your Ground Amendment Proposal

Trayvon Martin's Bill
One does not have the right to approach or pursue someone based on their assumption/suspicion that one has or will commit a crime, with the exception of law enforcement authority.

Why is this important?

This petition is in response to the recent verdict pronounced in the Zimmerman trial. I was truly disappointed in the jurors' decision to acquit him of all charges because of the wording in the Stand Your Ground law. Because of this, I would like to propose an amendment that would deter others from taking the law into their own hands, then hiding behind this law as a way of getting away with murder.
