Obey the law!!

I try to avoid conflict when I can, and I don't like controversy. There has recently been an incident in the news about a 17 year old boy being shot by a neighborhood watch person. When I first heard about it I was angry at some neighborhood watch person shooting an unarmed teenager. People were insinuating that the guy was shot because he was black. They presumed because he was wearing a "hoodie" he was being followed by the neighborhood watch. They made it sound like the teenager was just walking to his father's house after buying some skittle and tea. First of all, what 17 year old goes to a convenience store to buy tea? Today I read what happened was: " he was heading back to his truck when Martin knocked him down with a punch to his nose, jumped on him, repeatedly banged his head on the ground, then tried to grab Zimmerman's gun." That is the neighborhood watch guy's report of the incident. He was even trying to go to the hospital when the police made him go to the police station. That makes me wonder whether this guy was some nice teenager that was walking and got shot by an over zealous neighborhood watch. You know what, don't hit people with guns! The neighborhood watch follows people that look suspicious. If you have someone following you then get out of the area. Go to a store and call the police. Don't hit people that might have guns, and then don't try to take that gun away. People are in the streets saying this guy got shot because he was black, no, he got shot because he hit someone with a gun. People say he was shot because he wore a hoodie, no, he got shot because he hit someone with a gun. The president says this teenager could have been his kid if he had a son instead of two daughters and he is worried that it could have been his son that got shot. If the president had a son he should tell him not to hit people that might have a gun!

Come on, be smart, don't hit people that might have a gun. And, since anyone in America could have a gun, don't hit people. It reminds me of when I was in high school I was driving home from school. A friend of mine was on his motorcycle and wanted to race. I was game, so we were speeding. The police stopped us and asked for out license and registration. The friend started arguing with the cop that he didn't follow us for long enough and other technicalities. I told my friend to shut up, the police commented that it was a good thing I stopped him or we would have gotten a ticked instead of a warning.
