The Wal-Mart in Clarksville had to be partially evacuated early Sunday morning after a man wearing only boxer shorts reportedly carried a gun inside the store.

I'm not sure that qualifies as OC'ing...

What state is that even in? It mentioned that the man did not have a "gun permit".

The site is for the newspapers serving Jeffersonville, IN and New Albany, IN

I don't think you read the whole article, b/c this was a deranged individual w/ a handgun. Not Open Carry.

It doesn't; the handgun was in his hand.

Indiana

Yeah......that article is missing some key info. Also......carrying it in your hand with magazines also does not really fit in to the Open Carry classification I would not think.

Need to change the title.

 

[SOLAteeda]

The title was a joke

"and two fully loaded clips in his hand."---way to go media idiots.

Had this happened in AZ, TX, or LA, this ass clown would have been shot on site by a CHP holding citizen.

No, I'm pretty sure they try to filter out all the trigger-happy idiots before passing out CHP. Do you have a CHP and would you have shot the guy based on what you read?

Mentally ill does not = ass clown either... trigger happy idiot = ass clown.

Did this by chance happen in Indiana?

Indiana requires a permit to carry, but you can choose to conceal or not.

What would you think if you saw somebody with boxers on and a gun in hand?

It makes me think of escaped convicts who took off the OJ jumpsuit, then the gun may mean they took it from a guard or something.

If I saw somebody run into walmart in boxers with a gun in hand, I would GTFO at the very least.

My first thought would be that the person was probably on some serious drugs. I don't know how prevalent PCP actually is, but I've been told some pretty strange stories.

Agree with your plan to GTFO but not just opening fire. Earlier post eluded to just shooting him because he was carrying a gun around.

I'd figure he's holding his something in his other hand, too. Thing is, which one's gonna go off first?

 

[Quickdraw22]

Wait, so according to louisiana law, the gun must be holstered for it to be considered "open carry"??

A little off topic, but I'm just curious.
