Seems to me that we should just ban minorities fom having guns. Screw these civil rights activists who always pout about the Constitution & equal rights. If they can't handle firearm ownership, well...

Reprehensible, IMHO.


I'll ask you the same thing I have asked others to a deafeningly silent reply, present a scenario, any scenario where the kid deserved to die because he went out for snack food.

The problem here was the GUN. The Gun. It make a little bald guy into a tough guy. It make a little fat guy feel comfortable stalking a young black man.

As a result a fist fight began. The fist fight became murder because the presence of gun made both feel it was a life and death struggle.

It made the fist fight a murder.
The kid didn't die because he went out for snack food, no matter how many times you say this is what happened.

He died because he was stupid enough to assault a concealed weapon permit holder and had him on the ground, beating the shit out of him.

And as much as the guy who was allegedly assaulted wanted to be a cop, he did not have a badge, and I sincerely doubt that he was displaying his concealed carry permit on his forehead.

The guy had no business carrying a gun if he was indeed operating as part of a neighborhood watch program. I would anticipate that the weapon gave him an added sense of confidence that he could get out of his car and handle the situation, regardless of the advice he had been given.

The legalities of the situation will be determined by Florida practitioners. The ethics of the situation are questionable.

And Fox and Rush are just as willing to pronounce their judgments on all sorts of matters. Then you knew that too, but acknowledging it does not fit your agenda.

I will agree that the legalities of the situation will be determined by the Florida courts.

BTW, I see that you are now an administrator. Have you reached the top of the greasy pole, or is there still room for advancement?
