A Matter of Perception

Notice they never use this crap to advocate disarming the "Only Ones." [Read]

Hey, you don't want to tamper with a defense that works.

Interesting, but it doesn't say whether these people with the "toy gun" had any training or experience with real guns, or if they even considered holstered guns along with one "in the hand." Too many holes in this one.

Point taken David, but from everything I've heard that has been reported from the Florida case, the guy needs to be prosecuted. From the 911 evidence showing that he chased down the kid, to the audio evidence of the kid yelling help, it's pretty clear it was not justifiable. I actually think the prosecutors are playing like they can't prosecute because of the stand your ground law just to instigate a public outcry against the law. They know damn well that stand your ground is not applicable in this case.

With that said, maybe there is other evidence that would support a self defense case that is just not being reported (which wouldn't be a shocker).

Chris, my comment here has nothing to do with the FL case--this is strictly going after the antis using this perception hooey as a disarmament tool. Matter of fact, why the FL case is even introduced in the article is suspect and appears agenda-driven--I haven't read accounts that say Zimmerman thought the kid had a gun.

David, understood and I agree. Antis are using this case hard to go after stand your ground and CC in general, which is why I think we need to get in front of the discussion to make sure it isn't taken over these kinds of attacks. Brady campaign is already dancing in the street with their see I told you so comments, which makes my blood boil.
