Watch for the liberal tactic of putting the gun on trial. Why was Mr. Z carrying a gun if he didn’t plan on shooting someone? If he was that worried about being attacked himself he wouldn’t have gone out alone at night looking for trouble. No, members of the jury, Mr. Z loaded a gun, went out looking for trouble and the predicatable outcome was the gun, loaded, with the safety off, crawled out of Mr. Z’s pocket and did exactly what Mr. Z had intended it to do.
