Then you're an outsider. My family has lived in the South as long as there has been a nation. My family and their friends will say stuff in front of me that they would never say to an outsider, particularly a Yankee transplant which is how you are viewed by folks like them. BTW school bus burning? Really you think that is as bad as it gets? This is what people I'm, unfortunately, related to did to people trying to protest Jim Crowe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_Riders#Mob_violence_in_Anniston_and_Birmingham Yes, people change but not all of them have and many people fed racism at their parent's knees do not ever examine their beliefs enough to change them.

That's right. they're time stamped and numbered. They also have a little "Quote" box in the body and in the lower right an "in reply to" indicator. Guess what both of them are in reply to? If you guessed 'mnottertail' you win a seegar. Guess what he said that you replied to? "OJ won the criminal case, but lost the civil case. He aint the onliest one done that." Which is it? Illiterate, ignorant, bad liar? The proof is right above. quote: ORIGINAL: Powergamz1 Nice try. One little problem... the posts here are numbered, and time stamped... my conversation with Mastercaneman about the chances of a Zimmerman federal trial came before anything you are claiming I replied to. Once again, reality doesn't put up with your shit. quote: ORIGINAL: Hillwilliam So you quote one person's post and CLAIM you were actually answering someone else's post that was put up 6 pages ago. Nice fuckin try. Did they teach you squirming and changing our stories in the academy? You seem to be really good at it. OK, there are now 3 possibilities. You're Ignorant You're illiterate You're a really sorry liar.

He's had a much more effective pistol ever since his first time out on bail. There was never any question as to the right of an innocent man to own a weapon, the Kel Tec was just held as evidence. quote: ORIGINAL: tj444 quote: ORIGINAL: tazzygirl quote: ORIGINAL: BamaD Still their responsibility Nope, they didnt enter a contract with the company, Z did. http://www.businessinsider.com/ais-security-sues-george-zimmerman-2012-12 he dont need em no more... he's gettin' his gun back!

What gun does he got, now? I am gonna tell you those Kel Tecs are very long in trigger travel, jesus you gotta move some real estate to fire it, I never liked the fuckin things. It is OK for a cheapie I guess.

So, his being armed at the time was only coincidental to his seeing Martin as a possible trouble maker. Martin could just as easily have had a gun.

Powergamz1 -> RE: UNMODERATED ZIMMERMAN (7/15/2013 3:02:19 PM)
The withholding of evidence, and very much the attempt to knowingly file false charges of child neglect, went way across the line. And there is every reason to suggest that the witnesses who radically changed their stories after meeting with the Martin family attorney and the prosecution, were influenced to an illegal degree. I rarely agree with some of Dershowitz' grandstanding for the media, but he's saying what needs to be said. The judge and the jury averted a lynching. This whole thing smells like Pink Slip Rick's vision of Florida as channeled through puppets. Those who tried to point to the US Constitution were yanked, and replaced by those willing to subvert the law. And some posters here try to keep a straight face when they come down against Dershowitz, and support StormFront, and Skeletor.

Yeah, but he probably didn't spend 24/7 in that subdivision. He just may have had to go outside for things like groceries, work, etc. And when he did that, he could have possibly been exposed to less-than-desirable areas and people, hence the weapon. Not everyone with a CCW is a drooling, maniacal, rabid racist itching to cap a minority, you know.

[;)] IIRC, he originally wanted to use pepper spray for those, but was advised to use a firearm. And getting a CCW just for dogs is ludicrous, in my opinion. I only carry because I live amongst the most dangerous animal on Earth-my fellow man. But you may have a point about Walmart there...

Powergamz1 -> RE: UNMODERATED ZIMMERMAN (7/15/2013 3:36:07 PM)
Well the advantage of the Kel Tec 's small size is that it is much easier to have with you more often. I suspect that whatever Zimmerman bought on bail (I can't remember the brand or model, as I'm not a gun guy, but the store told Zimmerman it was his best choice.... powerful, higher capacity). As far as 'the one you are comfortable with', practice should help with that in almost any model. quote: ORIGINAL: MasterCaneman quote: ORIGINAL: Hillwilliam quote: ORIGINAL: Powergamz1 He's had a much more effective pistol ever since his first time out on bail.
