In reply to the discussion: "Notice that conservatives aren't arguing that Trayvon should've been packing? I wonder why..." [View all]graham4anything
(11,464 posts)53. remember the million man march?
Since that happened, I always wondered,
what if every single person who marched, had their 2nd amendment legal gun with them,
and acted like the republicantealibertarians did two years ago at their events, stroking their
guns.
The NRA never seems to open their ugly big mouths when a black is involved.
The deafening is silence.
The NRA needs to be audited (like that Ron Paul yaps about the fed), see who is really funding the group, and what their money is actually used for. (They use alot more money
as a tax free entity, than the miniscule membership yearly fee).
Audit and exam.

Of course, you are arguing against noone. Do you support Zimmerman's actions or not?

Wow, all I said was that it is ironic that the kook got to carry a gun to defend himself

I consider the possibility of Trayvon carrying a firearm to be a moot question.

The uncomfortable squirming in this thread that this question invoked is delicious to see.
