I don't give a darn what the end result is in court...he will always be reckless in my eyes and honestly, a killer. |
Many people carry guns and they don't ever have a second thought about it its just like carrying a cellphone to them and so like any other activity like shopping going to the bank driving across town he had his gun on him and it was just on him when he saw a suspicious person wondering his neighborhood that had break ins he didn't just go I am going to follow this person and make sure I have my gun. No he should not have followed Trayvon period but he did and for all we know he stopped when 911 told him to and went back to where he was supposed to meet the cop. I highly doubt if he was just out to shot a black guy in his neighborhood because he is racist that he would have not started a fight with Trayvon. Florida law says if you feel your life is being threatened you can defend your self. If my head was that bloody I sure would have felt threatened because all it takes is one whack on the back of the head in a certain spot and he could have been the dead one.
