A serious question. Did ALEC create and push through so many Stand Your Ground Laws in so many [View all]

states, was it a way to get rid of the "socialists" police system?


Not that I'm really a fan of Police. I think too many of them are ego-manics who make enough headlines on this board alone daily.

BUT if we have these "Stand Your Ground" laws on the records and being so widely used was it ALEC's hope that they would cut down on police force since people can now kill if they feel threaten?
