an overeager asshole who shot before he could properly
assess the situation.

You don't know that at all...


But do make it up as you go along, just like the Zimmerman case... Or
Sharpton/Brawley..

Your hero Mr. Zimmerman, possibly a racist, definitely a killer of
young black kids.

What is made up about the Zimmerman case? That Zimmerman was the poor,
little victim like you pretend to be?

My take away from Zimmerman is even if you are right and the shooting
is justified, it still may cost you $300,000 to stay out of jail.



My takeaway is that if you are part of some sort of neighborhood watch,
and you aren't supposed to be "watching" with a gun, well, you shouldn't
be. My takeaway is that if Zimmerman didn't have his gun handy, he
wouldn't have so aggressively pursued the kid and escalated a situation
into a homicide.

My takeaway is that if you're looking for trouble with a gun in your
hand, you're likely to find it.

Good answer. In 10 seconds you'd probably find he's drunk and in the
wrong house.

Fortunately I have a big yellow dog that handles most of that 10
second interchange. That takes me off of the hair trigger status and
gives me time to assess the situation. I really do not want to shoot a
neighbor's kid, even if he was a burglar but if I felt my family was
threatened, bang bang.

I assume that JPS has never had to deal with a belligerent drunk.

He met you?

Exactly, there are better ways to be "armed" than a gun.
