A lecture at Campbell Law School caused some controversy Tuesday.
The guest speaker was an expert on guns and self-defense law, but his Twitter feed has raised some eyebrows because of comments he made about Trayvon Martin.
For his part, Andrew Branca says he is not interested in the broader issue of how race plays into the justice system. He just wants to talk about the law. Yet, it is his Twitter account that had some questioning why he was invited to Campbell.
"That George Zimmerman got out of the car contrary to police instructions, that's not true," Branca said.
Branca is a Massachusetts lawyer traveling the nation by motorcycle -- a one-man lecture tour on guns and self-defense law.
His strong opinions have been in hot demand since Zimmerman was acquitted of murdering Martin.
"I decided what people really needed to know was the rules up front to avoid getting in trouble in the first place," Branca said.
