The Sanford Florida incident....

[TGS]

It's just hypocritical of them to paint Martin as a squeaky clean kid, fan the flame of public opinion claiming that is why we should hang Zimmerman and then claim that any information to counters that image is not relevant.

Not only that, but I think it's despicable that elected officials around the country are jumping on the racism bandwagon. Mayor Nutter of Philadelphia made a public statement that it was nothing more than an assassination.

Really? What ever happened to fair and impartial? If Zimmerman wanted to, I think he'd have a good shot at suing the elected officials for character degradation....but, I imagine at this point he's just trying to avoid any fallout whatsoever and move to a peaceful, remote, serene piece of Earth off the grid.

Amen dude.

I'd like to hear all of your thoughts on Zimmerman only firing one shot and what you think that means. I've been having a discussion with a mixed bunch of friends-TGS has met 2 of them and I have my own opinions of the one shot, but I'm curious if they line up with all of yours w/o divulging my thoughts first.

Ayoob for some reason thinks he had a malfunction as the mag was full and didn't feed any rounds, maybe it was a fail to feed due to something contacting the slide?

Just think how simple this all would have been if the world was like people want it to be on most internet gun forums.

Sigh...

I've been pretty hung up on this one shot and I think the possibilities are seemingly limited to 3:

1) Some malfunction.
2) He collapsed on Martin and his pistol after the first shot. Indicating that it was a single heart shot at extremely close range.
3) Zimmerman didn't want to shoot and paused after the first shot due to incredulity of the act he had just engaged in.

Maybe I misunderstood the PPIH (personal protection in home) course I took, but I seem to recall that it was shoot until the threat can no longer continue the attack. Feel free to correct me.

LOL! "If Woody had gone straight to the police, none of this ever would have happened!"

Maybe he ceased to be a threat after 1 shot?

Maybe he ceased to be a threat after 1 shot?

That was my thought/implication when I posit he might have fallen on Zimmerman and his gun. Wait a minute.....you're trying to trick the intertubz-nothing but a bazooka can shoot a guy dead in one shot

[TGS]

He was using a Kel Tec.

It probably just broke after the first shot.


(Being that I owned a PF9 at one point, I wouldn't be surprised)
