How many of you would be afraid to shoot now if you had to ? With all that's going on.

Not me.  but then I studiously avoid situations where my gun might be used.

I would probably use it quicker to help someone else, than to protect myself.

If you get attacked by a couple of scoundrels, and if one is black and the other white... shoot the white guy, you may have an easier time in court...
Jesus said we should treat other as we'd want to be treated... and he didn't qualify that by their party affiliation, race, or even if they're of diff religion.

Absolutely not afraid to use my concealed carry firearm for my protection or to protect my loved ones. I will not use it too protect a stranger, since most likely I will not know the facts for a situation where a stranger is in trouble. I would notify the law enforcement of the situation, thats why they get paid.
 
When someone carries a firearm for protection, they need too use it to get themselves out of the situation they are in and by no means pursue anyone. Furthermore you need to notify the authorities if you brandished a firearm or not, again thats why they get paid.

You would not be thinking about any of this if you were attacked, or if someone broke into your home, or if someone were trying to kill you.
If you have reservations, don't carry a gun. 
Over 2 million people are still defending themselves each year against criminals, that hasn't changed much, I doubt it ever will.  Your state laws still rule...don't let this latest bit in the news get you too shook up.  Since they over charged the guy, he will probably be acquitted anyways,  most lawyers are saying it would be almost impossible to get him on murder.  If that happens, there could very well be some justified shootings if riots break out and people are threatened.  Somewhere right now there is a justified shooting going on, I bet they are not thinking about Zimmerman while it's happening.

And you might not have to face a mob led by two racists who are motivated by phony outrage and the almighty dollar.

I just reread this and realized how silly it sounds. Racists? Its very likely that the 2 men I am talking about are not racists. Their convictions probably dont run that deep. Their convictions probably go no deeper than "where is the money?" and "where is the publicity?"
