“One fact has long been crystal clear: ‘Shoot first’ laws, like those in Florida, can inspire dangerous vigilantism and protect those who act recklessly with guns. Such laws, drafted by gun-lobby extremists in Washington, encourage deadly confrontations by enabling people to shoot first and argue ‘justifiable homicide’ later. The tragic death of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed child attempting to walk home from the store, will continue to drive our efforts to change those laws.” Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Though avoiding race – which is the cause of the killing – Bloomberg hit the nail on the head as to what the outcome of the trial is all about. American Gungoonery.
With the paranoia and threats, I wonder how long it will be before this Zimmerman moron gets to shoot another NWORD. To the applause of the Republican Party.
You know, after going through what Zimmerman has gone through this year, any sane person would put the guns away forever. Gungoonery is much like religion, it causes more trouble than it alleviates. Another profundity this week that needs a name to it!
