2nd Amendment Wins This Round

…He was working a typical shift at Beer:30 Liquor Store Sunday night when things got interesting.

β€œHad a gentleman come in the door there smoking a cigarette and I asked him to take his cigarette back outside,” recalls Alexander. β€œHe pulled a gun out from behind him and said, β€˜you need to give me all your money.’”

But the would-be thief learned quickly he picked the wrong guy β€” a former military police officer packing heat.

β€œI pulled my weapon up and told him, β€˜you need to get out of here before I blow your head off.’ Backed right on out the door.”

Via The Blaze:

Bestselling author Brad Thor is offering to buy George Zimmerman a new gun and all the ammunition he wants after the Justice Department put a hold on releasing the evidence from Zimmerman’s murder trial, thus delaying the return of his handgun.

Brad Thor Offers to Buy George Zimmerman New Gun After Department of Justice Puts Hold on Trial Evidence

[….]

Thor was confronted about his offer Friday morning in an appearance on Chicago morning program β€œWindy City Live.”

β€œAt what point do we let an American citizen get done with the justice process?” Thor asked. β€œI mean this is a big deal, this could happen to anybody.

Trayvon Martin wasn’t on trial, George Zimmerman was, and he’s not guilty…at what point does he get to recommence his life?”

The only real heroes in this trial were the jurors. They showed that this is still America — at least for now — despite politicians who try to cheapen or corrupt the law, as if this were some banana republic. Some are already calling for a federal indictment of George Zimmerman, after he has been acquitted” ~ Thomas Sowell


(H/T, The Blaze) From Patrick Howley at the Daily Caller:

African Americans benefit from Florida’s β€œStand Your Ground” self-defense law at a rate far out of proportion to their presence in the state’s population, despite an assertion by Attorney General Eric Holder that repealing β€œStand Your Ground” would help African Americans.

Black Floridians have made about a third of the state’s total β€œStand Your Ground” claims in homicide cases, a rate nearly double the black percentage of Florida’s population. The majority of those claims have been successful, a success rate that exceeds that for Florida whites.

Additionally, the majority of victims in Florida β€œStand Your Ground” cases have been white….

Smiley also suggested arming β€œevery black person in America and then see what the NRA has to say.” Um, that IS WHAT the NRA did???
