Trayvon Martin was shot after he jumped a neighborhood watchman and beat his head on the sidewalk.
The NAACP launched their Trayvon’s Law campaign today.
The new law hopes to end racial profiling.
From the NAACP website, via Breitbart:
In light of the tragic death of Trayvon Martin and the overwhelming national awareness around numerous issues surrounding this case, the NAACP has developed a set of policy principles called “Trayvon’s Law” which embody legislative responses that will greatly reduce the likelihood of another tragedy like the killing of Trayvon Martin. The principles of Trayvon’s Law are:
Ending racial profiling;
** Repealing stand your ground type laws;
** Creating law enforcement accountability through effective police oversight;
** Improving training and best practices for community watch groups; and
** Mandating law enforcement data collection on homicide cases involving people of color.
** In addition, state advocates can include policies that aim to dismantle the school to prison pipeline – which are critical to keeping youth safe and in schools.
It looks like an obvious ploy to raise cash.
They should be ashamed of themselves.
