I may not agree with the way he talks, looks and acts, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt. He obtained the gun legally, which means he has no criminal record. I guess it is entirely possible he bought the gun for self defense comments.

How do you know he obtained it legally?

He needs to learn how to handle his firearm properly and then learn some range etiqutte.

I thought about that and just assumed he did, being at a public sooting range.

No one should own a gun. They're dangerous.

If you really need protection, try one or all of the following:

1) trust in God

2) call the police
or
3) move to a safer country.


Peace!
brian

The only difference between him and this idiot redneck waving his gun around is skin color. I don't see anyone looking to take his rights away.


Drunk Redneck shooting a gun - YouTube

Drunk, stupid, mentally ill is fine I guess as long as he isn't black I guess.

Just a young man talking trash at the range. I've seen a lot worse over the years.

*shrugs*

Other than bad range etiquette which probably would get him chewed out on some of the outdoor ranges which are run by some of the more aggressive Safety Sally douchebag range officers, I don't see anything else particularly egregious.

Since I have no knowledge of whether he is a threat to anyone, or will be in the future, I have no reason to say he should not have such a tool.

The redneck appeared the stupider of the two. I have to wonder if the video wasn't simply staged simply because it's almost hard to believe anyone is that idiotic on purpose.

1. There is no god

2. When seconds count the police are minutes away

3. Countries with gun control are less safe than the U.S.

RR - Way too true. Trust in God, if tou believe in one, and be aware, alert and armed.
