LOST & FOUND: Concealed Carry Holder leaves loaded semi-auto in movie theater. 7th-graders find it

[sasha031]

Kids find gun, loaded, safety off, in cinema after concealed-carry guy “loses” it, doesn’t call cops

CNN reports that some kids in a small town in Oregon went on a field trip to see the new movie, The Hobbit , and what falls to the floor as they pull down their seats? A loaded handgun, safety off.

The kids were smart enough not to touch it, and called a teacher who then called the police.

1. He should, at the very least, be arrested for child endangerment.

[Permanut]

2. Yeah, but he says he's real sorry..

So that makes it okay.

9. sorry doesn't cut it. Carrying a loaded gun with the safe off is real bright too.

[Permanut]

11. You are so right..

those kids could EASILY have been hurt or worse, and others in the theater as well.

12. lol. That makes it ok

3. Only responsible gun owners have C&C permits.

Just ask any of the pro gunners here. They'll tell you of make excuses for it.

4. what kind of responsible holder is he

to have a bullet in the chamber and the safety....I guess he was expecting to have a shoot out with another theatre patron during the Hobbit...He was ready....He should have his permit revoked and fined big bucks.

5. A member of the gungeon??

6. His fat belly pushed the gun out of his Waist when he sat down, Methinks.

He's lucky it didn't go off.

The man is obviously an Ignoramus for carrying a loaded weapon with the safety off.

[Angry Dragon]

7. no more guns for him

[kiva]

8. Calls the theater to see if anyone found his gun,

but doesn't bother to call the police to report it? And we are supposed to believe that all concealed carry permit holders are soooooooo safety conscious...uh-huh

10. Can't get comfortable with this barrel pokin me, ACK! Ahh! better,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[SummerSnow]

13. Brought to you by another responsible gun owner

[SummerSnow]

14. NRA response...

Arm all the ushers and have a gun owners section in the theater

sarcasm

[Permanut]

16. Oh, Jeez, wait til Wayne sees your idea..

Prolly wanna arm the popcorn vendors too.

[RomneyLies]

15. That should be an AUTOMATIC revocation of CCW.

No ifs, ands, or buts, the CCW for that person should be revoked.

Hell, he probably shouldn't ever be able to legally own a gun again being that careless.

We need ZERO TOLERANCE policies for this type of shit. One strike and YOU'RE OUT!
