Stand Your Ground – Street Sermon
Listen up!
They call it Stand Your Ground, but I call it the dumbest law on the books.
A law that says if you feel threatened, if you believe your life’s in danger—
you can shoot.
No questions asked. No cooling-off.
Just fear, and fire, and funerals.
Florida showed us the truth.
Two cases. Two verdicts.
One man acquitted, another convicted.
Two families shattered.
And Randy? Randy is gone,
and his killer walks free like nothing ever happened.
Tell me—where is the justice?
This law don’t protect the people,
it protects the quickest hand and the loudest fear.
It turns sidewalks into battlefields,
neighbors into enemies,
and a moment of panic into a lifetime of grief.
Let me preach it straight:
Justice with two faces is not justice at all.
Justice that bends for one man and breaks for another—
that’s not law, that’s lottery!
That’s a death sentence written in fine print.
The Word tells us, “Thou shalt not kill.”
But this law whispers, “Go ahead if you’re scared enough.”
The Word blesses the peacemakers,
but this law rewards the trigger-pullers.
So I say: Stand your ground for truth!
Stand your ground for the voiceless!
Stand your ground for Randy and every soul like him!
Fight for a world where fear does not get the final say,
where justice is blind to skin color,
where life is worth more than a moment’s terror.
Because right now, this law is writing obituaries.
And if we stay silent,
if we shrug and look away,
tomorrow’s name on that headline could be yours.
So stand up. Speak out.
Turn this law upside down before it buries another son, another daughter.
Stand your ground—
but stand it for love, for peace, for justice.
And to those who think this is just politics—
I leave you with the sound
