Both articles talk about the responsibilities of gun ownership. I've never once read an article that says "it's just like wearing a watch."
Irrelevant to my point.
I referred to people that carry, carrying.
I did not specify circumstances.


How 'bout one of you carriers weigh in on your weapon as an accessory.

The Trayvon Martin Killing - USA Carry

"But here’s what I do know: Zimmerman could have walked away. He didn’t have to follow Martin and he could have listened to the dispatcher who told him not to follow the boy.

In other words, if you’re so worried about a suspicious person that you feel the need to call the police on them, then you should not follow them and you should wait for the police to come and do their job. I’m sure if you asked Zimmerman today if he wishes he had waited, he would no doubt answer “yes.”

The problem is, there are a lot of people (men) in this country who are insecure and feel the need to act tough."

Please read the article. It is written by a former CIA agent and a Utah Concealed Firearms Permit Instructor.
Apparently, you didn't read the bolded part of your own link, which was stated more than once. Here...let me help:

Again, I think there are still a lot of facts to come out and we don’t know the full story.

Please read your own story. It's nothing but just another stupid blog full of what ifs. It doesn't matter what the credentials are of the author; he himself admits he doesn't have a clue (see bolded quote I underlined).

Damn!

And why do you keep repeating yourself and posting the same junk? Repeating yourself doesn't make your point more salient or believable.

Actually, there has been something new; Zimmerman's statements have been released, and those are very interesting.

Also, Zimmerman's wife has been charged with perjury. Do you happen to know whether or not she has been arrested? I don't. But I've been wondering if that's just a piece of information out there which I missed.

Right there. That is key. It used to be a red sports car that was an extension of the penis...now it's a gun. Guns don't need Viagra as they are always hard and ready to go. It is so cliché, but it's true. The guys that walk around with Pitbulls or any other dog with a bad ass reputation or carry guns, not real men mind you, but emotionally stunted and/or physically shortchanged guys. I don't think a real man that is sure of his masculinity has the need to tell anyone that he owns or carries a gun, but on CD they go out of their way to be real specific about their guns down to the smallest detail. It's so obvious.

People who carry go out of their way to avoid being forced to deploy their
weapon. They don't go waving guns around looking to shoot somebody.
Before Zimm, how many permit holders have been charged with gun crimes?
Precious few, if you can find any.
