I know that Six, F.U., Mags, Cars, FAHQTOO and a couple of others here own guns and support second amendment rights and concealed-carry, also some aspects of SYG laws. I completely understand.
But, I can't imagine that just because someone exercised their second amendment rights and concealed carry privileges that gun owners would embrace George Zimmerman and be clamoring to hear him speak. Most gun owners here, IMO, aren't self-proclaimed pussies who wouldn't have identified themselves as NW or fought back before shooting a teen, no matter what led to the altercation.
Then again, I didn't believe much of anything Jose Baez espoused in the past and at least 12 others did. So...
Just curious. Would any gun owners here feel proud to have George Zimmerman as a spokesperson or make an effort to attend an event because George Zimmerman would be speaking?
Baez seems to just be giving his usual "over the top", "way out there", "media attention grabbing", unbelievable hypothetical scenarios he has become noted for. (look at all the book deals and appearances Casey has.)
I find it hard to believe that any rational business owner, and or responsible gun show organizer would want to be associated with the Z stigma.
Not to mention, Z would not have the balls to face his many disgruntled fans at a gun show! Especially around his many fans that would have guns also!
