TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Protesters who set up camp in the state Capitol building earlier this week finally got to meet with Gov. Rick Scott late Thursday, and they urged him to push for the repeal of Florida's "stand-your-ground" law and to take steps to combat racial profiling.

In a conference room near his office suite, Scott met for nearly an hour with seven leaders of the protest, which began Tuesday. They described their frustration about last weekend's acquittal of George Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin and their own experiences of being racially profiled.

Scott listened intently and took copious notes on a yellow legal pad. But at the end of the meeting he told them directly that he supported keeping the "stand-your-ground" law intact and he would not call a special session.

He also urged the protesters to talk to local legislators if they wanted to change state law and offer them examples of why they believe it may lead to more violence.

"If you believe stand-your-ground should be repealed, tell them why," Scott said.

It is considered unlikely the GOP-controlled legislature would revisit the stand-your-ground law, which had the strong backing of the National Rifle Association.
The governor also asked them to give him ideas about how to combat racial profiling.

Maybe I shouldn't admit it , but I'm subject to racial profiling. Watch the news on any given night and you'll see mostly young black guys in trouble over one thing or another. If they want to control my thoughts, they need to teach their young guys how to act in a civilized world.
