I recently saw a guy in the neighborhood I'm building houses in , scrapping metal from dumpsters wearing a shoulder holster with a hand gun in it, I called the cops and I'd expect someone to do the same if I was doing that. It really burns my arse that this guy most likely dud this "stunt" just to video tape it..... Why stir the pot? He prolly got his arse kick in HS . I realize a large # of cops overstep their rights but what would u do if you were in Their shoes??? Dealing with crazies all day and just wanting to make it home in 1 piece to see your kids w/o some worm trying to get you on every legal case know to man

I agree 100% with you. The guy had an excellent point but just went about it completely the wrong way. Like you said, seemed like a guy who got smacked around a lot before. I'm all for open carry, but don't go looking to get a reaction like he did. Just my opinion, but it seemed he was open carrying just to get a reaction. Not very responsible IMO
