Awfully dumb to get into an argument like the one he did. Certainly not a Martin/Zimmerman case where the decedent actually was trying to murder the victim. Having a loaded weapon imposes a huge obligation on its possessor only to discharge it if there's a real threat. If Dunn had just plugged his ears and lived with the irritation, he and his girl friend would have gone home to make love and live another day. I have a CCW permit and carry in my car all the time.

Yep - lots of stupid gun owners with immature personalities out there. I consider it my responsibility to stay out of any kind of spat that might escalate - arguing opens the door to being "dissed", which too many consider to be "just cause". I'm willing to be dissed and take verbal abuse if it means a situation won't escalate to a physical confrontation.

Rational people who carry a gun do so for self-defense. Idiots like Dunn carry one so that they feel brave enough to initiate conflicts whenever they feel annoyed at someone or something.
