        @WSJ He used self defense not "Stand Your Ground" - Isn't Holder a lawyer? Does he want to get rid of self defense? Go for it

        @WSJ Pretty sad day when the AG of the United States (willingly or otherwise) doesn't understand the right of self defense

        @WSJ The right to defend ourselves continues to be attacked. Is Zimmerman still allowed to go out and stalk people.. ?

        @WSJ Was the Stand Your Ground law even used in his court case.. ? Or does Holder just have a double standard.. ?

        @WSJ Does AG Holder even know that Stand Your Ground was not used in the defense in this case. Is Holder that clueless?

        @WSJ In my opinion Justice Department is discriminating Z by putting more pressure and focus on this particular person than any other case.

        @WSJ Eric Holder's logic is backwards. Concealed carry & stand your ground make life more dangerous for criminals not less.

        @WSJ Holder ref to stand your ground just stokes the fire. It didn't even apply in the Zimmerman case.

        @WSJ might make sense if "stand your ground" had anything to do with Zimmerman case. Holder should go to law school.
