Folding to revolutionary pressure, Florida lawmakers announced last Friday that they will hold hearings this fall on the state’s controversial and racially biased “Stand Your Ground”  laws.

Will Weatherford, the speaker of Florida’s House of Representatives, made the announcement, which marks the largest victory to date for the bold and courageous ‘Dream Defenders.’

“Across Florida, representatives are receiving calls, letters, visits and emails from constituents with diverse opinions on ‘Stand Your Ground,’” Weatherford said. “Passions are high, but every person has the right to express their views on this matter of great importance.”
