TAMPA --
The parents of Trayvon Martin came to the Bay area on Wednesday to take part in a town hall meeting focused on the controversial 'Stand Your Ground Law'.
Martin's parents were in Tampa for a town hall meeting held by the National Bar Association at the historic Beulah Baptist Church near downtown. The noon meeting was billed as 'Stand Your Ground for Justice'.
Hundreds attended the discussion, pushing for the repeal of the controversial Stand Your Ground Law and taking advantage of the chance to see Martin's parents in person.
Pastor W. James Favorite, Trayvon Martin's parents -- Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin -- and their attorneys attended the service, reminding Tampa area youth and the community of responsibilities during an emotionally charged time.
