Let the law play out, and see how it goes.

I agree 100% with that statement, although I do question if some of these decisions are going to have nothing to do with the facts of the case, but more with the emotions of the case. But in the meantime, all of the political whores trying to make hay from this need to STFU.

Zimmerman is going to get screwed. From what has come out, he may get off in Florida, but there is no way Holder isn’t bringing the civil charges to him to pacify the black community activists. Even if he is acquited of them, he will be making money just to pay his legal bills for some time. And all of that ignores the civil case, which will leave him like Bernie Goetz. Penniless, and unable to get ahead because whatever he makes will go straight to Martin’s family.

If you carry, you need to be careful. NRA would be wise to play up the penalites this guy suffers just to remind people, don’t let yourself get sucked into this type of situation if you can avoid it. Maintain situational awareness, and evade and escape long before the confrontation begins.

Bottom line is the worst threat to gun rights is this type of guy. The mass shooter motivates people to get guns, and argues for CCW. This guy, carrying a gun and following people, is exactly the type of creepiness which will motivate people against it.

Hopefully his case will do little damage, and still reign in any aggressive guys who think they can carry a gun, and then go about their day just like they used to.

Truth be told it’s a testament to the greatness of the gun-owning community that we have had CCW so long in so many palces, and never really had a CCW case the media could even try and use against us.
