Contracted driver.
Not media.
If I was driving a van full of nutty reporters I’d want to be armed.
Or shouldn't be carrying at all. My sister stayed at my home the last couple days. She always manages to forget her possessions, losing track of them, and goes into panic attacks. Been going on the last few years, getting worse. While waiting for a table in a restaurant Saturday night, she forgot her purse when we got seated, and panicked while I went back to retrieve it. Constantly lost her phone, keys, purse etc. over the last few days.
I always wondered how in hell could people forget their possessions, including babies in or on a car, having no sense of awareness of keeping track of what they have on or with them. Especially a baby... or a firearm. So yeah, maybe cut the guy some slack for forgetfulness. But maybe he shouldn't be carrying at all if he's that absent-minded. That's what helped Kate Steinle get murdered; an LE lost his gun and we know the rest.
Hell yes.
I've yet to see exactly what the issue was. Was the person a felon, or escaped from a mental hospital or something? Was he waving the firearm about in a threatening way? Was there any particular reason why that person shouldn't have been armed? I mean other than the fact that the Constitution apparently doesn't apply in much of America these days.
Anyone in our press circle with a gun, is no accident. They hate President Trump along with their handlers. I think they hate him enough to murder him.
