So chill out.
LOL. We know exactly what happened here. Nice try. He asked why he couldn't buy a gun and the owner said "I don't need a reason". That said it ALL right there.

Remember, according to these types of 'patriots', we have a God-given right to bear arms....

...unless you're too brown.

I've seen a white man have almost the same thing happen at a pawn shop in Tucson many years ago. A store worker was running the paperwork but had called the owner down because the guy seemed a little off. The owner (who was Hispanic) showed up and refused to sell the guy a cheap 22 revolver even after he passed a background check because the owner thought the man was on drugs. Maybe the owner was racist against whites, as this guy was the only white person in the store (I'm Hispanic), but I doubt it. The guy was acting strange like he was on an upper.

Not saying this was the case here, but there could be more to the story. If there's not, then the guy is just your typical racist dirtbag. Who knows? None of us were there.

The owner wasn't wrong. If that's what he said.

Clearly the man already had a gun on layaway and not paid in full. Why did he need another one?

To be fair that isn't relative. I have bought less expensive guns while another on layaway or I was waiting for it to come in.
What is relative is a gunshot owners right to decline sales. We are talking about a potentially lethal weapon. My friend who I buy from has declined sales to people he has sold to in the past. I haven't seen the gunshot owner's statement on this. Only the customer's, so I don't even know the whole story.

I'd simply spread the word that people shouldn't shop there.

Now, in this particular event, neither you or I know the full story.
I don't see where he is demanding the government fix it. The man who wanted to buy a gun is upset at the store owners refusal. He posted the video to spread the word that people shouldn't shop there.

Yet government will toss the Patriots in jail if they violate a law pertaining to selling guns. Next time you want to sound clever and play the race card, don't. You're not very good at it.

Because government made the rule. You don't understand that?
