It has a lot of the same bars and the like that were around back then. And the houses, mines, etc.

True that. The best sheriffs took the guns. but, that was before the NRA.

As long as they didn’t confiscate the all important “long gun”.

Actually, those are just guesses.

Yes, it helps sell the "mystique" to the tourists...

Apparently the jury also had a different take on the case. Zimmerman was acquitted. I wasn't at the trial and did not follow it closely but I would defer to the jurors who were there and heard all of the evidence. The jury deliberated for 16 hours before he was acquitted.

I think everyone should wait for the facts to come out before jumping to any conclusion on what happened and who is the guilty party. At this point, all we know for sure is that someone was killed.

Good point. Very scant facts are available.

Zimmerman killed Martin. He went looking for a fight. Martin was just a black man in a hoody minding his own business.

I keep stuff under my hat too. My wife disapproves. She says it makes my head look lumpy. I told her that it isn't the stuff. My head is lumpy. Hey, it is what it is.

I followed the case VERY closely, as it happened a few years after I first received my CCW...

Nope... Never happened...

Read the transcript of the 911 call...

Zimmerman followed the instructions of the 911 operator to a "T" and Martin was egged on to attack Zimmerman by his girlfriend. She admitted it in court...
