Wow, this guy is enlightened. He'd be willing to put his life on the line by pulling out a freaking loaded gun and trying to pistol whip his attacker, all for the purpose of giving his attacker an opportunity to retreat without getting shot.

I'd say his mentality is reasonable, yours is unrealistic and insane, quite frankly.

This is an ultra conservative board so i alread know how the poll will turn out.
How did those boycotts work out for the liberals when Arizona was the topic of discussion? Hint: It didn't.

True. We don't have to worry about you killing anyone, just you getting yourself killed.

Stevie Wonder must think that his fan base is signed, sealed, and delivered - and that all he has to do is show up to a scheduled gig and they are "his".

Harrier thinks that Mr. Wonder has made some of his fans rather disgruntled.

Boycotts never work and besides people love Florida beaches which are some of the most beautiful in the world plus water is warm enough to swim. Boycotts are like tariffs they work both ways ;so the winners are those who don't.

Ok first off boycotting an entire state because of laws passed by a few in power is just ignorant, second the Zimmerman jury NEVER heard SYG so that argument is out the window, it was based on self-defense and since TM threw the first punch and was on top of Z it WAS self defense and third if someone was on top of me pounding my head into the ground I'd shoot his ass to.

Stop pretending like TM was an innconet in this situation because he was not. He threw the first punch, he very easly could have told Z to bug off and walked away but he didn't. His own witness said he threw the first punch, that is what started the physical side of it, I am sure TM figured he could take this "creepy ass cracker" but he never expect Z to defend himself the way he did and had the right to do.
