One of the biggest components of this trial was the fact that Zimmerman used the "stand your ground" law during the incident on February 26, 2012. This is intriguing because it seems as though Trayvon should've also been validated under the "stand your ground" law in his own defense. In the aftermath do you think the "stand your ground" law will be reviewed and replaced due to the controversy it's caused? Or become something that Florida will forever be known for?
