George Zimmerman to Get His Gun Back
abc ^ | SANFORD, Fla. July 14, 2013 | MATT GUTMAN and SENI TIENABESO

George Zimmerman will get his gun back now that he has been cleared of murder and his lawyer said today that Zimmerman needs the weapon "even more" than before.

Zimmerman's lawyer Mark O'Mara also practically dared the family of Trayvon Martin to file a widely expected civil suit against him, but said that Zimmerman might be filing lawsuits of his own.

O'Mara, in an exclusive interview with ABC News, suggested that Zimmerman has no regrets about carrying a gun on Feb. 26, 2012, the night he killed Martin, a teenager.

...

He said that Zimmerman intends to rearm himself. When asked if he would carry a gun, O'Mara said, 'Yes. [There's] even more reason now, isn't there? There are a lot of people out there who actually hate him, though they shouldn't."

The former neighborhood watch captain wears a protective vest when he goes out in public, although he didn't wear it to court, O'Mara said.

Not only his gun, but also his Concealed Carry Permit - for Life!

Good he may need it. The natives are still restless.

I recall reading some time ago (long, long, long time) about a fellow doing point blank tests into dead animals to test ammo.

The surprise was how many times the weapon was disabled by pieces from the animal - wouldn't go back into battery.

Moral of his research - if you're using an auto, don't stick the muzzle up against your target or you might not get a second shot (should you need it).

Hopefully the thugs have learned their lesson and not ground-and-pound Zimmerman.

Love to take up a collection for a new .40 and a couple of years worth of ammo.

He could donate the 9mm to that black lady that was working for his defense team as an intern. She might need it.

KelTec has an outstanding lifetime warranty.

They would make it like new no questions asked.

(And they’re located in Florida.)

Somebody needs to tell Mr. O'Mara that you don't go supplying details like that to a potential assailant.

I pray George never has to use his weapon again. The race-baiters have taken the peace out of peace-maker for George.

Even better. I missed the brand of the gun on my first reading.

He better keep it handy until he manages to get out of this benighted country.

File a suit against the Martins, yes. Win it, highly unlikely.

The reason is that he would have to show that the Martins harmed him. I know some will think of slander but I have not seen any comments by the Martins (other organizations not withstanding) that would rise to meet the requirement of slander.

IOW, I believe the lawyer has kept them on a short leash for a reason.

I hope he spends some time at the range, or maybe The Gunsite Academy will offer him some FRee traing!

My thought is that Mr. Zimmerman will soon be able to afford guards and a nice private island. NBC may soon be NetworkZ, and his suit against NBC is hardly the only one he can file.

Given the records of Bammy’s Community Response Service, a suit against all including Holder and Bammy could be filed because it was a conspiracy to deprive Mr. Zimmerman of his Constitution based rights under cover of law and office.

That lil’ law has nice things for its convicted, like very long sentences.

Awesome.

Hey, if some punk tries to bash his head into the sidewalk again, he has every right to do what he did again.

HILARIOUS that so many of the whiners, who don’t listen to the facts, now are angry at the verdict.....

they LOST. and can’t handle it.

Imagine how crazed they’re gonna be if America ever wakes up and turns on their left wingnut political “leaders”.
