you have no understanding of the 2nd amendment and how concealed carry laws work, stop embarrassing yourself. the same person who i believe thought trayvon martin could get a concealed carry permit at 16 years old in florida

I suspect not,
maybe you should brush up on the law or better yet,
stick to topics you know about,
like basketweaving and leave adult conversations to adults....
thank you

Right, because anyone who speaks out against racism is really a racist themselves, unless the "victim" of said racism if white.

So you're saying that had Martin been of age, the NRA might put him forward as an example of someone whose life may have been saved if only he had been armed. I find that hard to believe...

and since when does the NRA support people shooting others for no apparent reason? Walking behind someone is NOT a reason to pull a gun and shoot someone.

He wasn't carrying a rifle. It was an airsoft toy. The entire incident from the cops spotting him to shooting him lasted only about 10 seconds. I think the moral of the story is that a brown skinned person with what might be a gun is assumed to be a criminal while a white man with a rifle is just exercising his constitutional rights.

Well, it was a toy gun so why would they come out. Cops using real guns is the problem in this case..a 13 year old shot 7 times? really
