I ran across a statement from Kel-tec, the company that manufactured the firearm that George Zimmmerman used to defend himself with in the incident with Trayvon Martin. I think it is worth understanding their perspective on the issue.
Just wanted to make an announcement. We prefer not to discuss the Zimmerman case on our social media channels. We [mourn] the loss of life anytime that takes place. No matter the circumstance, a life was lost. Unfortunately in today’s media, you can’t really believe anything you hear. There are just so many agendas and underlying elements that the truth is hard to find.
Kel-Tec is proud to be the choice of so many who protect themselves and their families with our products; however, when any firearm is used there always has to be an answer for pulling the trigger. As conceal carry owners, it is important for us to understand that we are responsible for the bullet when it leaves our gun. Part of carrying a firearm is having a heightened sense of our surroundings, current laws, and the understanding that the use of a weapon could have long lasting effects. In this particular event, we don’t know exactly what happened on that day, but we do know that one person lost his life, and the other one seems to have lost almost just as much. It is a sad situation, and we pray that God’s hand stays with the families that are involved. God bless.

My view is that it presents a very different view than the gun grabbers would have everyone expect their reaction would be.
