There is no evidence to support that statement, only Zimmerman’s word. Zimmerman could have drawn his weapon to illegally detain Martin for all we know.

This sounds like a TV crime drama. A CCW holder knows from the required training he's taken what are and are not justifiable reasons for the threatened use of lethal force.

If I were a part of a neighborhood watch I'd be even more reluctant to draw a weapon, since I would not presume the latitude that is afforded police. I would carry non-lethal alternatives: baton and/or pepper spray.

Am I correct in assuming that you do not have a license to carry concealed?

No, I have had a CCW for 10 years and lots of training. That’s why I am so intolerant of Zimmerman’s poor judgement.

“Uh oh, he’s running! He’s gone. They always get away.” I know, I’ll chase after him with my gun! Zimmerman is an idiot.
