Question: Do you think Michael Dunn would have asked the teens to turn their music down or George Zimmerman would have gotten out of his truck if they didn't have guns?
I dont know what zimmerman is really like deep down inside or what he would have done with given inputs XYZ. I do know the trayvon incident gave us a little taste of his personality. Not the full picture, but some pieces.
If Zim is actually a coward then I suppose he may not have chased or challenged anyone without a gun on that particular night. That doesnt make his heart any less cowardly or violent and it doesn't make him less dangerous as a human being. We managed to slaughter each other in massive numbers before guns even existed.
But even if guns were completely outlawed AND confiscated, people would either acquire them illegally or improvise weapons. Thats what happens in the other "1st world" countries that ban weapons.
Education and employment has a substantially greater impact on crime than the availability of weapons or drugs.
I stand by my motto: The problem is the people, not the objects.
I think the real issue here is americans are so shallow and and live in such denial that any time we are forced to take a cold hard look at the real world, we realize just how ignorant we actually are, panic, and lash out.
Zimmerman didnt understand Trayvon, he just saw a black kid in a hoodie, he got scared, panicked, and something awful happened.
People dont understand Zimmerman. Its easier to judge the guy at face value and label him one way or another rather than really sit down and think about what kind of person he was, why he thinks like he does, and argue based on emotions instead of logic.
People saw him on the beach, gave in to their emotions, and chased him off.
Do these folks not see how their knee-jerk reaction to "justice" is basically the same as Zimmermans? Do they not get the irony? You wanna lynch a vigilante cuz you think he did the wrong thing? Can you not see the broken logic here?
