you sound stupid. people pull first all the time and MISS....Pulling your gun 2nd doesn't always mean you're dead. Go back to sleep.
So you are willing to bet your life on the hope that the other guy will miss? And remember, you are just as likely to miss as he is, but he will get more chances to try while you are still drawing. How many times do you think he'll get to shoot before you can draw a bead on him? Even if he only has a 30% hit percentage, he'll likely hit you at least once before you draw.
he should be able too, not sure if a background check would fail now or not owning a gun is not a privilege that can be revoked at will... it's a constitutional right for all Americans "background checks" are saying it's a privilege and not a right .
Cops/Military do it all the time. pull out 2nd while the criminal is already pointing at them. it's a risk you take when you're in a gunfight. 10 paces played out during the days of Bonanza..
Oh it will fail miserbaly. HE HAS A MURDER ON HIS RECORD NOW. When they do the background check and see that he killed somebody negligently, he won't be able to buy a box of pellets much less real shells. He's better off buying a slingshot.
Only in the movies. In the real world they often approach the suspects with their gun out and pointed at the suspect. Cops also wear body armor, reducing the chances that a hit will kill them. Even then, if a suspect draws on a cop who doesn't have his gun out, the suspect still ends up wounding or killing the cop. I know that the movies have people convinced that criminals never can hit what they shoot at, but in the real world if you let someone shoot at you, you are likely to end up dead.
last i checked zimmerman doesnt have murder on his record. unless of course you are going by al sharpton's judicial system instead of the united state's judicial system
So now it's the DOJ committing a travesty of justice. What part of NOT GUILTY does Holder not understand? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...rmans-gun--Florida-law-says-returned-him.html Disgusting
So you're saying a Cop has never been surprised by a Gunman? Please make it good. I need a good laugh.
He doesn't have to have it "literally" on hhis record...Gun shops don't have to sell you a gun if they don't want to. It's their right. and since the ENTIRE naiton knows he killed a kid, Most Gun shops will avoid selling him one just to keep their doors open from the backlash. You seem to not understand that Zimmerman is a PORIAH in this society now. the ONLY way he can get another gun is if the KKK sells it to him or a Gun Shop sympathizes with him. Now go back to sleep.
Show me where I said or implied "never". I used the word "often" on purpose. In the situations where the cop is surprised by the gunman, the cop usually ends up getting shot or at least having the gunman take several shots before the cop takes his first.
No - he has his own record keeping system. Let's accuse him of raping 100 infants so he has to put that on his record of himself. Apparently his record system won't be equal to the one you might see at a police station.
I know we all keep getting older, but did you see the picture of Al Sharpton in the latest link?? He looks like an old man now. Way thinner and healthier looking; but he looks 50 years older than the last time I saw photos of him.
Holder has put a 'hold' on all the evidence including the gun. George has every legal right to buy any legal gun he wants to.
He would have every right to sue anyone who tried to deprive him of his right to own a firearm. he was adjudicated an innocent man!
You guys keep thinking the majority of the country agrees with you. They don't. Most likely more than 75% of the country thinks what happened sucks, but Zimmerman is not guilty and should go free. I would sell him a gun, so would most others who aren't race baiting.
Don't you worry dear. Apparently you have never visited a gun shop. When you do you will discover that virtually 100% of gun shops in the country will be delighted to sell George a gun.....any gun. Hell there are gun shops that will be happy to GIVE George a gun. The lucky gun shop that sells/gives George a gun will take a picture of George and the staff and have it framed and proudly displayed on the wall. Wake up.
Well of course George can still own a gun. His acquittal of all charges gives him his right to continue to bear arms under the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution.
Here are the legal requirements for being prohibited from owning a gun (according to the BATF): These categories include any person: Under indictment or information in any court for a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year; convicted of a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year; who is a fugitive from justice; who is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance; who has been adjudicated as a mental defective or has been committed to any mental institution; who is an illegal alien; who has been discharged from the military under dishonorable conditions; who has renounced his or her United States citizenship; who is subject to a court order restraining the person from harassing, stalking, or threatening an intimate partner or child of the intimate partner; or who has been convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence (enacted by the Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act of 1997, Pub. L. No. 104-208, effective September 30, 1996). 18 USC 922(g) and (n). Nothing in that prevents Zimmerman from owning a gun now. He does not have a murder on his record. he was found not guilty. - - - Updated - - - I think you are wrong about his being a 'poriah' (I guess you meant pariah). Gun shop owners have already offered to give him a replacement gun.
go back to sleep? the (*)(*)(*)(*)? tons of gun owners support zimmerman. theyres tons of places out there willing to sell to GZ.
