Sir,
I listened to you on Armed American Radio pod cast when you were discussing the George Zimmerman self defense case. You said to the effect the best gun fight is the one that is avoided. Do you think that if George Zimmerman would have been openly carrying a properly holstered firearm that Travon Martin would have avoided him altogether? I understand we will never fully know the answer but just wanted your opinion of why or why not this would have been the case or not.
I understand you say you like the tactical advantage of concealed carry but at what point was it an advantage: before the attack, during the attack, or after the attack? How did concealed carrying prevent the attack? I can see how an openly display of a lawfully owned firearm would have prevented an unarmed man from attacking but it's obvious that concealed carrying didn't.
Just to be fair I have asked you these questions before and you did not give proof of how the open carrying of a firearm has made one a target but I can point to you how concealed carrying a firearm did not deter an attack. I'm not saying that George was a target because he was concealed carrying but the attack was not deterred. Here is a case that a concealed carrier was almost killed before he was even able to draw. You once scuffed at me saying that open carrying doesn't deter attacks. I can give you an example from George on how tow individuals deterred an attack on a Waffle House and didn't even know it; also, my wife can tell you she deterred an attack by open carrying.
You are the expert so please give me facts and not opinions.
Sincerely,
Psalm 34:8
I understand the open carrying isn't generally legal in Florida so please stick the question.
Please keep this civil. You have gotten emotional with me before. I don't take I'm the expert and you are a nobody argument.
So here are the two questions:
1) Would open carrying possibly deterred the attack? why or why not
2)At what time was concealed carrying an advantage: before the attack, after the attack, or during the attack.
