C'mon man, grab your Ruger 10/22! 😄
“Assault-style rifle,” “black rifle,” super extra scary, O noes!
My sympathy is with the census worker, who is just trying to make some money. I think people who don’t want to be counted shouldn’t be.
Nothing better than a “Florida Man’ piece . . .
except maybe a “Florida Woman” piece.
Wait...was that wrong?
Sometimes Florida man is funny and stupid. Sometimes Florida Man is just stupid.
Pellet gun is better.
But was he riding an alligator while firing?
Insufficient information to make an assessment. How far back on the property was the mans house? You have to travel over more than an acre of woodlands to get to my house from the nearest street. I won’t be able to make a determination as to your identity until your right up on my house. I often answer the door with a side arm but have never had the occasion to draw down on someone. When you’re in rural parts of any state, you should be prepared to identify yourself. The Census worker is a sworn agent of the federal government. They may not like the idea of being in the line of fire, but a stranger on our property in these parts isn’t going to be met unarmed.
If you enter someone’s property, and they yell at you to leave ... you stay there until they go inside and come back with a rifle? I would think you would leave when they told you to leave.
Every time there’s a Florida Man post it should be accompanied by the 1960d era TV Batman theme !
>>...had fired a shot at him...
Well... the results wouldn’t indicate so.
It’s the season for shootings, because Democrats often stage them around elections.
Census workers are better eating with Fava Beans and a decent Chianti.
I guess they don’t get movies in the FL.
PETE, one of 3 escaped convicts, looking for a hiding place: "You Wash's boy?"
CHILD: "Yassir! And Daddy tolt me I'm to shoot whosoever from the bank!"
He pokes his rifle at the three men, who raise their hands.
DELMAR: "Well, we ain't from no bank, young feller."
CHILD: "Yassir! I's also s'pose to shoot folks servin' papers!"
DELMAR: "Well, we ain't got no papers."
CHILD: "Yassir! I nicked the census man!"
DELMAR: "Now, there's a good boy. Is your daddy about?"
(From the movie, Oh Brother, Where Art Though? ;^)
His only protection: car decals and a lanyard? Sheesh
“Witnesses told officers that Cooper started screaming at the man as soon as he began approaching Cooper, who was on the home’s porch. After yelling at the man to get off his property...”
Yeah? That should have been the government idiot’s first hint.
This is a violation of Census rules, though I see it a fair amount.
AR guy is in a heap of trouble, though. The Feds are gonna make a Federal case out of this.
So what’s the problem, did he miss?
“Florida man arrested after shooting AR-15 at Census worker”
a simple, “Get off my lawn!” would have sufficed ...
