In reply to the discussion: Man shopping for coffee creamer at Walmart attacked by vigilante for carrying gun he was legally per [View all]AtheistCrusader
(33,982 posts)When someone is doing something that is perfectly legal and mundane, you don't get to couch your ('your' rhetorically, obviously you didn't attack anyone) over-reaction as the victims fault.
If he was waving it around. Holding it in his hand. Menacing people with it. That sort of shit, sure. But a person with a gun in a holster, that was in fact concealed inside the Wal-Mart (the attacker saw him transferring it into a holster (A HOLSTER not just jamming it in his waistband, another clue)) in his vehicle, and then followed him into the store should give you no cause for alarm.
He could easily have been a plain clothes police officer. By all reports, no one inside the Wal-Mart was aware he was carrying at all, until captain kangaroo decided a black man with a gun* is super scary and jumped him.
*In a holster, not bothering anyone.
