He is a poster child for thousands of NRA members. Why?

1. This was a case of self defense.
2. He defended himself effectively by owning a gun.
3. He had a CC permit to carry that allowed him to hide a gun on his person for defending himself.
4. He was a neighborhood watch guy in a private community and had every right to follow a perceived intruder.
5. When the stalking led to a confrontation, he defended himself by lethal force.
6. Florida's SYG statute was effectively used for self defense with gun ownership and CC permit.
Those are major selling points for NRA. If one skips the real story, makes a great sales pitch for NRA_Pierre & handgun sales climb through the roof. Imagine the publicity from this guy's visit to the Kel-Tec.
