Not sure why the size of the gun matters. Gun nuts like to carry the biggest thing they're legally allowed to carry.

I don't know what happened, but the size of the gun has no bearing on motive.

... Except that people who like to carry their guns at a parade are more likely to be violent.


I would assert no one brings a tactical assault rifle to a crowded space without an expectation to use it

Well, I fucking agree with that.

Am I the only one that thinks this looks ridiculous walking around with a rifle in public. Even though it's your "right" to do so, it's lame as hell.

That was from a couple of years ago. A few guys decided to walk around downtown Raleigh for a while open carrying the biggest guns they had just because they could. They made sure they went into any business where they thought it would bother people to try and get into arguments. It was all very normal and hero-like.

I can no longer see the photo but I assume it's the dudes in Subway with a mini bazooka?

I don't remember it being a bazooka, but yeah, you got the idea.
