The right is preventing the local police from arresting Zimmerman

Why does the NRA keep insisting it was a righteous shoot?

Rob, are you going to start carrying?

Not past the edge of our land but yes because we feel we have no choice. They hand out guns to anyone as long as they are not drooling on their shirtfront.

At the moment we have a .177 and a 6mm pellet gun not lethat but I would hate to get one of the 6mm balls in the face. That pistol has a muzzle velocity in excess of 500FPS. Looking at some Czech pistols .380, 10 round clip. Now they will draw blood, kick in our door and that will be your last kick in this world.

We mind our own business, we do not hassle anyone, just leave us alone and you will be fine. get in my face and I would as soon kill you as not.

Not directly, but the SYG law is the baby of the NRA and a law enacted with Jeb Bushs signature, is it not?

Did you see the Piers Morgan interview with Nugent?

Ted was not a happy boy. Especially when the murder rate data was presented. And when Piers asked him if he thought it was right that any armed citizen could summarily kill someone unarmed and be released simply on the claim that he "felt" endangered. (Aside from the Martin case.)

Wow, maybe they SHOULD be more selective about who they let own guns.

Don't mess with the Conservative Democrat, especially in his front yard.
They're a hard nosed, no nonsense bunch who won't take shit from anyone!
I'm into antiques so just give me a LeMat street cannon. Those things make a Casull.454 look like a peashooter.

When we whacked out lefties who have made multiple trips to the anger counsellors couch start buying guns, you nice, clean cut, Biblethumping Republicans will suddenly see the light about gun control.

If they had been more selective we would not need any for ourselves but you righties and the effing NRA want to give J frames to teenagers.

Speaking of selective I note that you selectively edited my post. Omitting the part that noted that we don't bother other people and merely wish to live quietly. Florence already carries a taser and the police are aware.

Where is the run of mill $200 dollar Nasal Bone x-ray that demonstrates a broken nose...
the fact that one was not taken at the time of the assault sounds fishy. Even a negative result would demonstrate some worry about a broken nose. If one was taken odd that the lawyers for Zimmerman will not announce that one was performed.
Getting one's head slammed against the concrete would be an automatic brain CT in any emergency room these days, just to protect the ER doctors from lawsuits.

Maybe the kid never broke his nose or bashed his head in the concrete. Maybe he just "got up in his face".
