I see someone has soiled his diaper already. When is your nanny due to change you?
Here's a bulletin: Anyone who is walking down the street openly carrying a weapon, I'll run you over. Considered yourself warned.
Stay away from Meridian Av. in Puyallup, WA. It's not uncommon to see people walking with long guns, on their way to the gun show. There have never been any issues that I know of, but evidently if you happen to drive down that street, there is going to be mayhem.

I have been up and down Meridian in Puyallup (though I tend to avoid it if possible, because of the heavy traffic) and I have never seen anyone openly carrying a gun. Guns belong in cases, not being waved around in public by someone who may or may not be a lunatic.
Did you miss the part of the article that mentioned that the woman hollered at him and he turned and pointed the gun at her. That air soft gun is designed to look very much like a real fire arm. She was within her rights to defend herself.
For some reason that part was left out of the excerpt posted here

Drive down Meridian on a Sat or Sun morning when a gun show is scheduled, and I guarantee that you will see people walking with guns. It has never caused a problem. On second thought, don't drive down Meridian on a Sat or Sun morning, since you vow to run people over with your vehicle.
I wonder what the outcome of this situation would have been if the person with the 'gun' was an off duty police officer. Or an on duty police officer in plain clothes.

That is what makes me laugh about these types of incidents. There have been cases like this were beat cops have either blown a undercover case or in one case, killed a plain clothes cop, just based on a sight of a weapon. There was a one case were a Metro cop in DC blew an undercover investigation when he drew his gun on a undercover cop who was tailing a suspect. Then there was a more tragic case on Long Island were a beat cop shot an plain clothes detective who was responding to a robbery call. The sight of a gun along should not trigger a fatal reaction from someone, regardless of whether they are a civilian or not.
LOL hate to say it but the dipweed with the toy gun got what he deserved. When he pointed the toy gun at that woman in the car she had every right to stop him by any means in her power.
I agree.
I don't understand what the hullabaloo is about. If someone points what appears to be a gun at me, I, too, will run over his ass. Twice. Once forward, then backward.
