This is an excellent point from Smiley. After Newton, Wayne LaPierre and the NRA came out blaming the school, the teachers, and pretty much everyone else for not being armed as the reason for the shooting.

Now with the Martin case, they have been completely silent. Why haven't they come out to say it's Martin's fault for not being armed? Could it be because he's black?

Gun nuts are attacking Martin for having photos of guns on his cell phone.

The same gun nuts who brag about handling a gun at the age of 15.

Go figure

Probably because anyone with an IQ over 60 can deduce that he would have likely used a gun to commit crimes from his text messages and past actions.

I don't know do they? 17 year olds can own guns, but it is illegal to conceal carry.

I honestly don't know their position on 17 year olds carrying guns. If they support 17 year olds using guns, why would they be against them carrying them???

Does anyone know??
