And with rights come responsibilities while exercising those rights. If a time comes when we NEED to sling an AR and wander about, sure is a nice right to have. Doing it just to scare the moms down at the mall is not a reasonable or logical use of that right and only widens the gap. That's why the first question cops always ask is "WHY are you carrying an AR?" I'll bet if you had a reasonable answer, ie "I'm walking my property line and have seen coyotes/alligators/bigfoot" I'd bet their response would be much different. Look at it from LE perspective, if I was walking down the street with an AR I'd be doing so legally right until the moment I started killing people. So as of now there is no time or place it's "normal" to just walk down the street all ho-hum with an AR. You will always be stopped. So what's the point? What are you really trying to accomplish?
But regardless, the point here is that Starbucks declared they didn't want to be part of this game. So using them as the venue for a battle they don't want to be part of is just crapping all over a company that is actually on your side.
Jstokes1,
So, as I understand it, you were out shooting rifles, with occupied houses in the area. I'm assuming that you never had a berm, or backstop, because you tried so hard to validate your innocence in your post that we all know you would have mentioned it; of course, now you're going to swear up and down that you had a berm. Then officers, who were most likely called out by neighbors, showed up to make sure you aren't in the process of killing small children. Then they leave, and you go about your business. And, in your mind, that was a terrible experience?
The rest of the crap didn't happen, if any of it did, so I'm not worried about how the false facts factor in.
Instead of Starbucks, carry that AR into your local movie theater.

Dear god, you just threw napalm on the thread didn't you.
He has Sugar Cane Brah...
I'll need the tons per acre, CRS, POL, fiber and brix content of said field before I can confirm or deny as a adequate back stop.
I feel suddenly less than. I don't know the Velocities of any round in any of my guns.
Maybe he can get $15 grand and or a motorcycle, too.
You're younger than me?
That kind of explains a lot........
I think I found his cane field....
