Cruz Pushes Back Against Race Hustlers
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Trayvon Martin‘s mother, Sybrina Fulton appeared on Capitol Hill today to testify about why states should re-evaluate their “stand your ground” laws. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) took issue with the senate even bringing the laws up for debate. He believes that people are trying to exploit a tragedy for political reasons.

“The subject of this hearing, the stand your ground laws… was not a defense that Mr. Zimmerman raised, so this entire hearing, the topic of this hearing is not the issue on which that trial turned,” Cruz said.

Cruz pointed to how state senator Barack Obama co-sponsored an expansion of Illinois law providing civil immunity for those who use justifiable force to those who defend themselves.
He thinks that taunts of racism may be a good political attack, but they don’t have anything to do with this debate.
