Here's a poem I found on a poetry forum I belong to:
Your License to Murder Black Children in Florida is Now Available
by CrowWhisperer
We have some truly wonderful news
for all of you gun loving racists
down there in the sunny state of Florida.
The justice system has finally figured out
a way to make it perfectly legal for you
to murder innocent young black children.
It is called the Stand Your Ground law
and allow me to explain how it works
with a random hypothetical example.
Imagine yourself as a member
of a local neighborhood watch group,
carrying a loaded and concealed weapon
which is completely within your right to do.
So, you spot a young black boy
walking back home, minding his own business,
returning from the market with candy and soda
and since it is raining, he is wearing a hoodie.
He looks very very very suspicious to you,
why? Because he is a black person, of course,
and you have never really trusted black people
and they have always frightened you to some extent.
You decide to phone the police first
before you take any aggressive action,
but the police tell you not to follow the boy,
they will arrive there in a moment or so, they promise.
Well now, this is not what you wanted to hear,
so fuck that advice from the authorities
as you angrily mutter to yourself under your breath,
"these fuckers (meaning "n----rs") always get away!"
You are extremely furious now,
blaming all the crime in your neighborhood on black people,
and you step out of your vehicle
and start stalking this black child on foot.
When you catch up with your intended victim
you carefully avoid identifying yourself
as a member of the neighborhood watch group
because that would immediately relax the situation
and you desperately desire a confrontation.
The black boy does turn to confront you,
"standing his own ground", as it were, the silly child,
the laws that protect your rights
do not apply equally to black people. Sorry.
Now, all you have to do is pull out your gun
and shoot this innocent black child to death
because the law is on your side, and there will be
no prison time whatsoever in your privileged future.
Congratulations, you just got away with murder.
