Creepy guy with a firearm staring people down through windows. Yeah, I'd rather he not have a gun.

Big Dave stared menacingly at me, and I think he has a gun.

No civil rights for Big Dave.

Well, if I stare menacingly at you and a bunch of other people, then the world might be better off if I didn't have a gun.

The freedom of speech doesn't give you the right to shout "fire" in a crowded theater and the right to bear arms doesn't give you the right to intimidate people.

You can shout "fire" in a crowded theater provided that there is a fire. Likewise I can intimidate with a firearm, that's part of their purpose. You saying "intimidate" when what you really mean is you feel scared.

Staring menacingly at a number of people is not the same as walking down the street minding your own business and someone freaking out at a gun.

Sure it is. You're simply using your perception to differentiate. Looking menacingly isn't a crime, even with a gun.

I read the story, what did the guy do? Is he mental? the article does not say that. He walks around with a firearm, so what? Sorry but did he threaten anyone or anything, either verbal or on the internet?

Those folks that were so freaked out may want to stay out of the rural areas during hunting season...... they would be calling the cops every second

1. If the 2A only exists until you have offended someone, then it doesn't exist at all. That was my point.

2. Your cliche analogy is not even settled law. It was part of an overturned opinion used to prosecute a man for distributing anti-war flyers 100yrs ago.

Big Dave thinks every guy who has been turned down for a date should lose his 2A rights. :mrgreen:

The Tony Montana I remember wouldn’t have been intimidated by a little 25 cal. He would have just said “Let me introduce you to my little friend”.
