>> Vigilantism as a hobby? Really?
Not in the hobby lobby sense; I took it as tongue-in-cheek. But then I *understood* immediately what he *meant*, because I don’t have a hair trigger cocked to find some evil malignant intent in every word that rolls from his lips. Know what I mean?
I personally didn’t take his intent as such. My mind immediately went to gun ownership.
The record on this incident is pretty clear: the guy was on a personal errand, was carrying his firearm, contacted the police about a suspicious person. At some point he got out of his car, but he was attacked. The guy was bloodied up and had obviously been on the ground. His shirt was stained from the grass, and he was wet. It really does sound like he was attacked.
Regardless of what actually happened, this is the story he gave the cops and the story that’s on record. Zimmerman did one thing right: dead men tell no tales.
