    Stand Your Ground Law One law I will forever remember is the “Stand Your Ground” law.

The Barbarians raided Rome in a different manner

    Abolish Stand Your Ground An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind said by famous peacemaker Mahatma Gandhi. This law has caused people to kill first instead of trying to avoid conflict. If we don’t change the logistics of this law then we won’t know which side of the law that we stand on. The law is supposed to solve problems‚ not create them. Laws should provide as much clarity as possible‚ not expand racism and discrimination. Laws should always bring about the practical results

    that battle‚ I read “Common Ground” by Judith Ortiz Cofer. At first‚ I read the title and thought it’d be something for pro-equality and how people are essentially created equal. By the second stanza‚ with the line‚ “when I look in the mirror I see my grandmother’s stern lips‚” it was clear that it wasn’t a poem about being created equal‚ but about how people do share that “common ground” with people they may not have wanted to grow up like.
