Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee reintroduced the Justice Exists for Us All Act to Congress Wednesday.

The bill, which the Texas Democrat stated is a response to the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, would pressure states to drop stand-your-ground laws, which assert that citizens can use force for self-defense rather than being required to retreat from dangerous situations.

"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual." Thomas Jefferson

"If people can�t trust not only the executive branch but also don�t trust Congress, and don�t trust federal judges, to make sure that we�re abiding by the Constitution with due process and rule of law, then we�re going to have some problems here." - Barack Obama, June 7, 2013

That doesn't matter. The money and the votes are there for people who play the race card and blame whitey for everything.

You can never go wrong telling people that nothing they do in their life is their fault,and that someone else is to blame for their bad decisions.

Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it�s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)

Can the stand your ground states, cut off sending any tax dollars to the feds in return?
