Has anyone ID’s the doosh cops who did this?
Well, obviously Walmart is going to be sued and then stop selling BB guns now.
Get em while you can.
Because the mere possession of a firearm is a death warrant.
The Crossman MK-177 that walmart sells does not look like that. It has a plastic wood-look stock.
If that is the rifle then they may have done the right thing. It is not a “toy rifle”. It is a weapon that could easily cause serious injury or death.
If that was the gun, I would have shot him. It looks like a real rifle. If I’m told there is a dangerous guy with a gun and this is what he has, I would have put him down if he pointed it at me.
FWIW, I have some issues with toy guns that look like real guns and real guns in toy colors. I’m not a fan of the CCW weapons aimed a women in pink and teal. Firearms are serious business and should always be treated with respect.
But, I am also the “boring” uncle who spent time teaching my nephews gun safety after they got airsoft rifles. They wanted to shoot at each other, and I was trying to teach them the rules of handling firearms.
I tried resizing this per HTML Sandbox but it didn't seem to work.
