Not the sharpest knife in the drawer is he, a shotgun will save him from a 7.62 Nato slug fired from two hundred metres away.

Yes, innocent people should be able to do what they want. But smart people should realize what is and isn't prudent.

I have the right to call someone a jerk, but that doesn't make it an appropriate thing to do.

Given his circumstances, Zimmerman might want to carry a gun for protection but he should probably lay off publicizing it.

So you don't want anyone else to emulate his behavior if it means he's on the other end of it? Why not, if what he did was perfectly legal?

Did he post the pic or someone else?

Since it was in a publication; he had to agree.

I would much rather have him as a neighbor than much of the trash that loiters our American cities today.

Seems like a good guy and upstanding citizen. Kudos to you, George.

BTW, that Kel Tac has a nasty recoil. Sweet machine!

He posed with a big ****-eating grin on his face. I know Zimmerman is an idiot, but even he had to know better if he didn't want that picture posted online. He is clearly very proud of himself in that pic. He deserves whatever comes to him as a result.

Ooooooo. A 7.62 NATO sounds so....special. . Tell me, why does he need to worry about someone with a weapon chambered thus? Some banger gonna "do im'" with an M14? (I used a service style rifle chambered for this for dramatic effect) lol.

Personally, I can't care what GZ chooses to defend himself. Doesn't effect me. It's not like I take him for some kind of trained expert or proven operator who's personal choices in weapons are heeded by the shooting community.

That he would continue to be armed, I don't blame him. I wouldn't want the bulseye on MY back he has. However, how he chooses to defend himself from here is not my concern nor interest. I'm not gunning for him. Or anyone else. I figger, if folks just let the man be, he would live quietly, and OUT of sight. I would.

His best bet is to go about life with a low profile...as if nothing had ever happened.
I suspect he enjoys his "celebrity."

Since we all know he has some kind of "hero" obsession, knowing so many people see him as a hero for blowing away an unarmed teenager probably just feeds his sickness. I expect we will see more and more of him.

I wonder how he paid for it? Is he working? Or are people still donating to his upkeep and keeping him in the lavish lifestyle he had become accustomed to?
