Kel-Tec's are inexpensive CC pistols. They are made pretty good these days and the company used to stand behind them as far as repairs or replacement. Trying to look like a Glock 27 but a smaller round and a smaller, more concealable frame.

When I had my CC my instructor, a 25 year retired MO State Trooper, carried this same weapon.

Wow, you guys are good. After hearing cherry picked "evidence", and sprinkling in a healthy does of your own biases and pre-conceptions, you've got Zimmerman convicted in the court of public opinion. You should be proud of yourselves.

The court of public opinion always renders its verdict well in advance of any actual trial. Is this news to you?

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.

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?

Then again, neither Fox or Rush are accused of editing the 911 tape to make Zimmerman sound like a racist.

I have a real problem with you and others rush to "keep and open mind" because the kid was black and you love guns.

Clearly and innocent life was taken but you can't escape you NRA mantra of guns are good and it had to be the young black kids fault somehow.

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.

That is it in a nutshell with a bow on it and yet some will pout about states rights and who's got the bigger gun.
