    People are just crazy! 62 yr old man with a CC permit tackled by 43 yr old in...

    Too bad the guy couldn't get a couple of shots off into that a$$hole.
    That's VERY disturbing to me for some reason. After the gun is taken away, it's handed off to at least two other people! How do they know who they just gave the gun too??? Man I wish he could have killed them. The other two who assisted need to be charged as well. If you carry a gun, carry a knife also; and be ready to kill anyone who tries to take either tool away from you.

    It won't happen, but IMO, all parties involved with holding him down or handling his firearm, should be thrown in jail.

    Anyone can make excuses for what happened, but I say this... Just don't go to Wally World.:mamoru:

    This could have been an interesting test case had someone been killed. So many possibilities:

    The CC'er shooting the self-proclaimed do-gooder.
    The CC'er shooting both of the people holding him down (with a secondary).
    Someone shooting either of them or both of them for attacking the black guy.
    The gun discharging and striking and wounding an innocent.
    The gun discharging and striking and killing an innocent.
    The gun discharging and killing the permit holder.
    The gun discharging and killing the do-gooder.
    The permit holder being seriously hurt or killed in the scuffle.

    And so, I am assuming the white guy thought the black guy was a Somali Jihadist? What a tool.

    The do-gooder should be worried the permit holder might run straight to a doctor for a checkup and claim neck and back injuries and sue this idiot into poverty.

    A few months back , in Wall-Mart , a fellow shopper strolled by exercising his not concealed carry option, did a quick double- take but Hey no big deal, it's legal, it's his right, it didn't upset me in the least.
    Now that I think about it , nobody tackled him , tried to take his gun away or called the cops. That's something to think about.

    There's nothing wrong with being an advocate for open carry, but it's like the old saying goes... "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should."

    Knowledge is the most valuable tool for any human. A little forethought could have prevented this from happening.

    This is true, but since all our infringements come as parts and parcels of a slow chipping process; we should ALL vehemently support that open carry NEVER be altered or amended. It should be the gun communities unwritten/unspoken rule to not flaunt.

    I would never vote for or support a law or politician that wants to repeal open carry, that said, I do not choose to open carry. I don't believe open carry is done for the correct reasons in most cases though. It is for self defense, not intimidation or the wow factor.

    Oh sh!t... What should I do?! :eek3:

    Should I immediately buy some combat boots and tactical socks? Or would liking the American Badass Coalition FB page suffice?!

    I'm inclined to agree with you, but I'm thinking it'll be closed down by page 4.

    You might want to make sure it actually smells like oscillated feces before you go all Captain America on someone. At bare minimum he woulda earned a throat punch and a broken digit.

    ^ is that how you apply for the american badass club, or do I have to include a picture of my beer belly and mullet?
