Bill Cosby has weighed in on the Trayvon Martin case.
The famed comedian told the Washington Times that neighborhood watch volunteers like George Zimmerman, who shot and killed the unarmed black teenager, should not be allowed to carry guns.
"We've got to get the gun out of the hands of people who are supposed to be on neighborhood watch," Cosby said in his first public remarks about the case, published today.

Sorry, Bill, but you are wrong here; dead wrong. I have on many occasions carried a gun for the last 46 years, and still do to this day ten to forty times a year and have NEVER, EVER thought to harm or kill anyone! it has literally never crossed my mind! In fact, EVERY time I have carried I take all precautions to make sure no one would be haarmed by it. A squirrel? sure. Rabbit or deer? Yes. But never a human. And, if you listen to the facts being put out there on the Martin case, George probably never, ever thought that he was carrying "in order" to harm or kill ANYONE.
If you would please go back to your school's dictionary or thesaurus and kindly look up the definition of "Self Defense" and then please read it to the class, you may get a better understanding of responsible gun ownership.
Dear Bill,
Watch volunteers do not carry guns. Mr.Z was a self-appointed watch volunteer. I don't believe it was even a 'real' watch, just one he started on his own.
