The idiot is lucky he didn’t get shot.

I carry a gun everywhere, but I keep mine very well concealed. This guy was basically open carrying, and was just wearing a jacket.

The idiot saw him, and something made the dumb ass to try to play ‘hero’, or something. Has to be one of the craziest things I’ve heard someone do. (more like stupid)

I could see someone walking into a store with an AR on their shoulder, and I would think nothing of it... That’s why I believe he’s an import from some anti-gun part of the country where there aren’t many real ‘men’, and they all wet themselves at the sight of a firearm. (most of the males in those areas are like John F’cking Kerry)

I think all states should eliminate the separate designations of open or concealed carry.

This story is basically an assault on a man lawfully carrying a firearm by a jerk.

Um, no.

I’d develop neck and back problems and sue this moron into bankruptcy. I’d show up at every point in the criminal process and demand his incarceration. Then I’d object to his parole. During his probation, if he got it, I’d have him followed by hired detectives and if he violated the terms even once I’d have him reincarcerated.

No mercy for the stupid.

Idiot. Everyone with a gun is not automatically a bad guy.

He assaulted a law abiding citizen. End of story.

His motivation was apparently that anyone with a gun is a criminal, in his world view, which is a farce.

He’ll more than deserve whatever comes to him because of this.

“Shopper tackles man with gun at Wal-Mart”

Be assured that the tackler wasn’t a Green Bay Packer.

“I think all states should eliminate the separate designations of open or concealed carry.”

That’s an interesting thought. Putting the obvious fundamental 2A right to carry without any restrictions aside, I think states first ought to all be on the same page for reciprocity. Of course libtard stronghold like Chicago or NYC suburbs would prolly send out a SWAT team with all their surplus military gear for a couple of teenage boys with BB rifles walking towards the neighborhood woods for an afternoon of plinking.

The screams Liberal to me....

Some deduction....

First of all...as a conservative...I know that not everyone who has a gun in a criminal.

No threat to me.

The guy was an older gentlemen with a holstered weapon...

No threat to me.

the mere sight of this guy...was enough to make him tackle the guy...

The old guy was clearly a threat to him....

Who is threatened by old white guys with guns?

Liberals.

Most conservatives would say “nice gun”.

I think the turd thought he could take the old guy and make a scene and be a hero.....

Anti gunners have been saying they were going to start acting out in public and try to get open carriers arrested or even shot....

“Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity.....but don’t rule out malice”

Dude is an effing weirdo.

I see bolstered weapons all the time and never give it a thought.

Well, I usually wonder what they carry, the holster and how they carry mags but then I think of the guns I use to own, before the boating accident, and get a sad-E Face-E.

Still hurts...

I usually tackle people with my arms, but each to his own.
