As the Aug. 1 court hearing for Marissa Alexander draws closer, supporters continue to stand by the side of the Florida woman who is facing 60 years in prison for firing a warning shot at her husband during a domestic dispute.
Activists nationally and locally are organizing a “Standing Our Ground” week to raise awareness of reproductive oppression, gender violence and mass incarceration, from July 25 to August 1 in Jacksonville, Florida.
The first day of the week will acknowledge the one year anniversary that George Zimmerman was exonerated for the killing of African-American teenager Trayvon Martin.
The events will run into Alexander’s court date, where she will argue for her immunity under Florida’s “Stand Your Ground” law.
On Friday, July 25, the national SisterSong Reproductive Justice Institute will hold a day of panel discussions and workshops. A youth assembly will be held on Saturday. On July 27, a benefit concert will be held for Alexander’s legal defense fund. A march will be held July 28, and a panel of local and national feminists and leaders in the movement for women’s safety will be held Tuesday, July 29.
On Wednesday, panels will take on issues of police brutality. On the final day of activism, legal experts will train the community about their rights under the law, ending with a candlelight vigil.

Florida case of clown who killed woman solved, police say – 27 years later
Murder detectives in Florida believe they have solved a bizarre 27-year-old cold case in which a young woman was shot dead by a balloon-carrying clown who knocked at her door.
The killer of Marlene Warren, authorities said on Thursday, was Sheila Keen, who was having an affair with the victim’s husband at the time of the May 1990 homicide and who was later to become his second wife.
According to the Palm Beach sheriff’s detective Paige McCann, Keen, who was arrested in Virginia on Tuesday, dressed as a clown with white face paint to disguise her identity and called at the house in Wellington, where Warren was at home with her son and some of his friends.
“The clown had two balloons as well as a bouquet of flowers and went to hand Marlene those items. And as she went to receive those items, she commented: ‘How nice,’” McCann told reporters at a news conference in West Palm Beach.
“It was at that time the clown pulled out a gun and shot Marlene in the face.”
She said one of the balloons was printed with the words: “You’re the greatest!”

My mom moved to Naples Florida about 20 years ago. She moved to New Mexico about 10 years ago because she thought there were too many "old people" in Florida. She was 70 when she moved out of there.

Just at the personal level :: My friend who moved there from LA is Puerto Rican and looks pretty much black, gets racial slurs thrown his way multiple times a day from random ass people on the street and bus. Unfriendliness to say the least.
