Summary:Zimmerman hunts down, shoots, and kills a teenager on the street, but stand your ground saves him. This woman, worried for her safety, fires a WARNING SHOT that doesn't even hit anyone in HER OWN GARAGE, but the law doesn't cover her? I don't want to just throw the race card around, but these officials don't even seem to be giving anyone another option. Florida's gun laws make no sense. And I just read that Florida also has another crazy gun law that says anyone can use their yard (even in a residential neighborhood) as a personal shooting range, and there are no safety requirements to protect the neighbors! Enough is enough, these gun laws are detrimental to everyone's safety and unacceptable!
