[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1174584, member: 14668"] Not true. If anything, the Zimmerman case will cause other gung-ho wannabes to rethink their philosophy regarding how and when to use deadly force. Zimmerman was acquitted of murder but his life is effectively ruined. He is probably bankrupt from legal fees, unemployable, and at risk of retaliation any time he goes out in public. His is a case study for what a legally armed civilian should [B]not[/B] do, and [I]no[/I] rational person would want to be in his situation. Remember also that there are many hundreds of thousands of trained and law-abiding civilians nationwide who are licensed and carry concealed on a daily basis [I]without[/I] incident. There are also many cases where the mere presence and display of a firearm by a legally armed civilian is enough to [I]prevent[/I] a potentially violent situation from escalating. [/QUOTE]
