The Green County Prosecutor in Missouri refused to charge Dmitriy Andreychenco with terrorist threat in the first degree. The charge was made in the 2nd degree. Dmitriy was open carrying in a Walmart

U.S.A.-(Ammoland.com)- At about 4:10 p.m. on 8 August, 2019 Dmitriy Andreychenco parked in the parking lot of the Walmart Neighborhood Market in Springfield, Missouri. He took an tactical ballistic vest out of the car, put it on, and slung a AR type rifle. He walked into the store. He was open carrying and testing his Second Amendment rights, as confirmed by his wife and his sister. He had his phone in his hand and was recording himself as he pushed a cart through the store. He never pointed the firearm at anyone or made any verbal or written threat. The Walmart manager stated he heard an employee say that Dmitriy was coming into the store with the vest and the rifle. He observed Dmitriy walking in the store aisles. He told an employee to pull the fire alarm in order to get people to evacuate the store.

Dmitriy evacuated the store with the rest of the customers. As he left the store, another armed citizen pointed a gun at him and held him for police.

The police took Dmitry into custody without incident. A video shows him acting calmly and carefully following police commands. Police quickly determined he was not a threat, as the store manager had assumed.

Point was, considering the statute as written, It would be a viable defense.

Yep, add another day a week here and there and it will become “normal” and the hysterical propaganda and brainwashing will be squashed and defeated.

I believe the Walmart was in a mall that was gun-free

Or it could have been a good time for some trigger-happy patron to shoot him dead before he opened fire.

In a Country (OURS) that has mandated that “Hate” is a Crime, anything is possible.

Hate is a Motive, not a Crime, but you would never know it.

Hate Crime = Thought Crime, period.

Hate Crime Laws are an assault on our Constitution yet they exist throughout our Nation on Federal, State and Local levels.

Worth repeating.

Those that get to define what "hate" is get to control the rest of us.

People need to realize that exercising a right is just that. Laws need to be enforced in our favor as vigorously as they are enforced to fine us or put us in jail.

Plus if the El Paso guy knew in advance that several Dimitris were likely to be in the store, all those people who were just killed, would still be alive.

All you people bashing Dimitri: Take a powder. The libs are, simply put, trying to disarm and do away with us. Realize it.

Free Dimitri!

—it is unusual where I live to NOT see someone open carrying in the Walmart (30 miles from Front Site) and I am always carrying concealed there and elsewhere—

—as far as I am concerned , that is prudence-—

—strolling into Walmart under the circumstances this “Dimitri” did is attention-seeking stupidity-—

With brainless morons like this on our side it is a wonder that we still have a 2d amendment.

He is very lucky he was not shot.

We certainly don’t need to give the Left more ammo like this fool.

Do you have to allow a shot before taking out would-be killers?

Re #6:
The prosecutor has made it clear that the guy who held Andreychenco (Yes I copied and pasted that) at gunpoint is not going to be prosecuted. I happen to agree with the prosecutor but of course he didn’t ask my opinion anyway.

Indeed. Apparently his wife tried to talk him out of it but he was determined to get on his soapbox and make his point. He'll probably make his wife take a second job to pay for the legal bills he is incurring.
