There is no accounting for idiots.

Besides being a totally legal concealed permit holder, the guy could have been an undercover cop, an FBI agent, etc.

Can you imagine if the guy was LEO what kind of hurt he would be in?

I have shopped at this store more than once, when in Brandon for various reasons. Not surprised that such an incident could occur there, though it would have been much worse if he had so entered the Brandon Mall about a mile north of the WM.

He was carrying concealed. The moron spotted the gun when he exited his vehicle and put on a jacket.

Michael Foster, 43, of Lithia had watched Daniels, 62, take from his car the handgun — for which he holds a concealed carry permit — and place it on his hip underneath his coat,

Read the Article, HE WAS NOT OPEN CARRYING. The fool is lucky he didn’t get shot.

Michael Foster, 43, of Lithia, was arrested Tuesday and charged with battery for tackling a Walmart patron he believed was up to something sinister because he was carrying a gun. The patron, Clarence Daniels, 62, of Seffner, had a concealed carry permit and was legally allowed to have the gun in public.[Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office]
