I dunno, in the right hands an umbrella could bring down a helicopter.
The guy innocently pointed his umbrella at a police helicopter. He’s damn lucky to be alive.
“Playful and theatrical by nature, Di Marzo gestured his umbrella toward the helicopter.”
Up until that point, even if he had been carrying a rifle he would have been legal. (Well, not sure about riding the bus.) But open-carry in Washington is legal as long as you aren’t doing it in a “threatening” manner. Of course threatening to me is a lot different than to some liberal weenie that would probably want someone SWATed for having a BB-gun slung over their shoulder.
Worked out at a nuclear facility, and the folks told us NOT to goof around in any manner. They told the story of a crew of contractors out in some far reach of the site, and one guy pointed his rake handle at a small helicopter as it flew by. A few minutes later two attack helicopters were on either side of the workers, with speakers telling them to lay on the ground and wait for security vehicles.

Imagine if he was shot? It sounds like they already had the laser on him...
My thoughts exactly. If he would have done this in LA, there would have been at least 500 rounds fired at him.
