3/27/2012 - Pennsylvania's Stand Your Ground Law

After reading the article comparing the Pennsylvania law with the similar law in Florida, give your opinion on the role of such laws in our society.  Are these laws necessary to protect our freedoms?  Do they lead to violence against innocent people?  Does the availability of guns make us safer or less safe?  Please write an opinion on this topic, including references to the rights protected by our government.  Also check back and respond to at least one classmate's response.  Be sure to write several sentences to express yourself and reflect your understanding of the role of government in protecting all citizens.
