If we ban guns, only the people who are mass murderers will have them. They will get them off the black market, and decent, law abiding citizens will have no defense.

He wasn't waving it around, he holstered it as he got out of his vehicle, and it was concealed when he walked into the Walmart.

Why did he need it there? Oh yes you have to be prepared all the time don't we, we never know when the evil guys will come with those firearms.

I'm glad some businesses aren't idiotic and ban the possession of firearms on their property.

Medal of Honor for his assailant. He obviously had a damn good reason for tackling this man.

Why would anybody be carrying a gun into Walmart? Only to shoot people down, of course.

Why should he be punished? He committed no crime.

He was carrying a gun. He's a dangerous man and probably a racist conservative asshole.

It was concealed, the person saw him when he was concealing it as he got out of his car, then followed him.

So, where in the US do you live where concealed carry permits aren't issued? Because if it is anywhere other than Washington D.C., you have concealed carry in your state.

Foster only saw the firearm as Daniels was holstering it at his car. After it was holstered, it was concealed under Daniels jacket.
Gun control is like trying to solve drunk driving by making it harder for sober people to own cars.

Any accident you can walk away from is one I can laugh at.

I already told you I wouldn't feel comfortable with someone having a firearm on the premises period.

Despite having no criminal record or recorded usage of his firearm toward a person? The second is an "all X are Y" style flamebait.

Thank goodness this imbecile wasn't carrying, or else we'd probably see the poor man gunned down like an animal. Strange that somebody who took the time to get a CC license wouldn't also get a real holster.


"when the gun in hip holster"


*Rereads the first few lines*

Well, then the tackler is a complete idiot then. Someone intent on starting a mass casualty massacre isn't going to bother with a holster. Oh God, it just gets worse every second I think about it.

As for the 'no guns period' argument, I would hasten to mention the incident recently when an armed robber held up a line of people waiting for a new pair of designer shoes who was stopped permanently by someone with a legal permit. Of course, good incidents are always downplayed and held as outliers, but what can one do?

No I mean if you use it all, you will be prosecuted. If it is seen, you will be prosecuted. Even the NRA saidthe extent to which people are brandishing weapons publicly is getting ridiculous.
