Gun nut films himself walking into WALMART with assault weapon and 100 rounds... Off-duty firefighter stops him...

I guess you will have to define assault weapon. That's a pretty contentious matter.
the legal definition as of 1960 as far as I can tell is any semi-automatic firearm with an detachable box magazine which would include your Beretta.
Someone to contend that an AR-15 style rifle is what constitutes an assault weapon,
Man that definition leaves a lot to be desired though. It leaves out a large portion of actual military rifles.
So I hope you will clarify.

When did we stop discussing the guy in the OP? That’s who I was speaking of with saying he was fortunate he didn’t end up testing a coffin.

As far as dudes post, I was in agreement with the second part, and skipped right over the first. My error in not stating that.

Plus...Am a woman here so don’t come at me like a bunch of jocks. Roger has a personal grudge. Nothing to do with guns.

Not all military weapons would fit the classification among the M16 with detachable grenade launcher. Rocket/
grenade launchers and machine guns we were trained to use, we had .38 cal. revolvers for some indoor security work and 12 gauge pump riot guns for crowd control. Neither would be classified as assault weapons. And if used for smoke, tear gas or other non lethal purposes I would question grenade launchers too.

Assault weapons in my limited view as a woman, would be those I see used in wars, crime shows, and snipers. Lol. Such as THE MAN IN THE OP WHICH IS THE TOPIC. .

I have a Beretta because I was followed a year ago by a man that I noticed inside a store we were both in, who I “felt” was watching me. I also knew that he would be waiting outside and he was. He followed me most of the way home but I was praying and listening. Was told not to go home, not to pull off on any dirt roads, but to keep on open roads.

I whipped my car onto a paved road and stopped. He whipped in behind me. And I waited and prayed. Also had my 3 dogs in with me which surprised me that he would actually follow with them in, but my foxhound was just a pup then. Today he would rip a leg off for me.

Anywho, being on the open road...he finally took off. The Lord is so wise!

Ever happens again...I will wave the gun in my mirror. If I had had an assault rifle openly carried, am sure there would of been no problem being followed but if I could carry one, then all would be able to do so.

Easy war between neighbors like the McCoys? 😬

But, is just my limited view.

Well. since most snipers I've known prefer bolt action hunting rifles, I wouldn't call them assault rifles at all. The words Assault weapons bring me to mind of weapons designed to mow down groups of people quickly and indiscriminately.

Scenarios such as happened to you happen far more often than people think, and that is some seriously scary stuff. I'm glad you carry for protection. I would never disarm you, or my daughter, or my wife. I have no desire to make it difficult for you to carry.
The Yahoo in the OP needs to consider what his actions do to make things more difficult on people who should be armed for protection. Which it is my opinion that every law biding citizen should be armed and ready to protect themselves and others. Not that anyone should run into a situation because they are armed, but for example: my brother stopped a carjacker from victimizing an elderly gentleman at a red light one day, by pulling his gun and yelling at the carjacker who saw the gun and ran off.

Ok. Will make a note of that next movie I watch with a sniper used. I will be sure to inform anyone watching with me, that it’s not really an assault rife but a bolt action rifle.

But, my definition of an assault rife Calibob, is one used to assault. Lol. Teasing...

Open carry is like a flashing neon sign saying
SHOOT ME FIRST
Also allow anyone to carry without a permit is just Reckless and irresponsible because permit laws ensure that the wrong people don't get their hands on firearms

I understand but I have a sword and several switchblades too. The can be used to assault to but much more up close personal and selectively. The term Assault weapons refers to the military usage which is closer to mass attack. I.E. 'Can spray a lot of lead quickly to repel or attack an enemy force of several or many'.

Those are both fallacies.
It has been demonstrated that in areas where civilians are likely to be armed, these cowards do not commit their atrocities.
It is also demonstrated that in such cities as Chicago; permit requirements do not prevent the wrong people from obtaining firearms.

True but under permit laws, if your caught with an unregistered weapons in your going to prison.
Someone with a History of Violence shouldn't be able to walk into a gun store and legally purchase any firearm

I remember one day my step-brother stayed up for like a week on meth.
He was sitting in his room by himself talking to imaginary people
But yeah let's give him a gun. That will totally make me feel safe
Point being. There are some people who just should not be armed
