AMAZING! The Dutch artist Berndnaut Smilde has developed a way to create a small, perfect white cloud in the middle of a room. By carefully manipulating the temperature, humidity and lighting in a room, Smilde conjures a cloud out of... well... thin air... using a fog machine!
Many are calling this another case of what's wrong with the 'stand your ground' law in Florida, which bears a striking similarity to the Trayvon Martin case. An unarmed teen is shot for playing his music too loud. And the alleged gunman is now claiming he felt threaten after an argument ensued.
It's unfortunate how a black teen's life is not valued and can be taken for playing his music too loud. The gunman is in jail, which is a good thing. But, he is claiming self-defense under Florida's law. I guess the world will watch this cause to ensure justice is the outcome.
Seventeen-year-old Jordan Russell Davis was shot and murdered by 45-year-old Michael David Dunn after the two got into a verbal confrontation over loud music.
Jordan was sitting in a car when Michael pulled up next to him to complain that he was playing his music too loud outside of a convenience store in Jacksonville, Florida. From there, the two exchanged words when Dunn, a registered gun owner and collector, used his firearm to shoot at Davis' vehicle. He fired eight or nine times, striking Jordan twice in the back seat. No one else was harmed.
Since Jordan's death on Friday, Michael has entered a not-guilty plea deal, claiming that he felt "threatened." His lawyer stated that Michael acted responsibly and in self-defense.
Jordan was a student at Samuel W. Wolfson High School, a magnet school in Jacksonville.
How many more Trayvon Martin's have to die before we reform gun regulation laws? Everyday innocent lives are dying by the hand of legal gun owners, or people who legally purchase guns that are then funneled into the Black market.
