What exactly does it take for a man with domestic abuse complaints and a fatal shooting to lose access to weapons?
Exactly what happened on Monday between George Zimmerman and his estranged wife, Shellie, in Lake Mary, Fla., is still in doubt but seeing the words Zimmerman, gun and altercation strung together once again has turned Zimmerman into a lightning rod for questions regarding gun violence and domestic abuse in the United States.
Based on the initial report, Shellie called the police that day claiming Zimmerman, brandishing his firearm, was threatening her, daring her to step closer to him. I dont know what hes capable of. Im really, really scared, she told the emergency dispatcher. He violently destroyed her iPad, she said, allegedly cutting through the device with his pocketknife. He also apparently came to blows with her father, and allegedly exhibited the complete lack of self-control and dangerously poor judgment for which the public has come to know him.
But because Shellie changed her story only hours later saying she never saw a firearm, and that she wouldnt press charges there was no domestic violence report filed. Absent that, the police didnt pursue a warrant to search Zimmermans vehicle for the gun he may or may not have used to threaten Shellie.
Whether or not Zimmerman had a gun on him that day, one thing remains clear: The gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin may still be lawfully returned to him. And he is, according to recent reports, looking to buy more.
Which invites the question: What does a person have to do in this country to get a gun taken away? Or lose the right to a concealed carry permit?(continued)

In the report she also stated that he was “selfish”.....I think she wants money...and there are probly a lot of ways shes been told to get it.
What does a person have to do in this country to get her cell phone or IPAD or 911 privileges taken away?
Bingo! She was trying to get a divorce-by-cop by getting him killed.
Not maybe, we should demand that all Media a re qualified in determining what is the TRUTH.
I have been saying this for along time .
After all, it is said “The pen is mightier than the sword”!
Real estate and jobs are both plentiful down here.
Well Katie, the domestic abuse charge was a LIE and the shooting was SELF DEFENSE.
So, there is NO REASON to deny his Second Ammendment Rights!
Get it?

There you go, you bully! Can’t you see that little Katie is upset? Don’t go clobbering her with facts. It’s so unfair!
The Marxist media is a bigger threat to our safety than some guy that got in an argument with his wife.
I have a friend sitting in jail right now because his cheating wife claimed he struck her while he was out on bail for a previous false accusation by her.
They are going thru a divorce because she was messing around on him while he was working his ass off to support her and their kids.
I’ve known this guy for over 35 years and he has never struck a woman or a man.
the concept of ,” innocent till proven guilty,” is lost on this writer.
Oh, I’m pretty sure she gets the concept, but she doesn’t think it applies to “white Hispanics,” gun owners, tea partiers, conservatives or anyone else she doesn’t like or agree with.
Karmas a bitch sometimes.
