Not if he was defending his life or preventing a forcible felony.
Neither was the case here, so what is the problem?
CJ's personal situation is not supported by law (that I've seen) and you support using the appearance of a gun to support noise problems between people?
Open carry is recognized in about 23 states, including many of the Western ones. That's not illegal. And it's not illegal to ask a bunch of drunken clowns to tone it down.
What I support is 1) open carry, and 2) people not giving up other Rights simply because they choose to open carry.
but the tongue wagging from too many anti psychotics to worry about.
Like I said, there is a contigent of folks here that despises the thought of an "average" citizen being on equal footing with agents of the state, as is the case with open carry.
If CJ shot someone, you would not be in his corner
That's the point. He didn't shoot anyone. He did nothing illegal. Why is it that "open carry" equals "shooting someone" in your mind?

There's more than a contingent, be sure of that. Anyone with a (d) behind their name pretty much falls into your stated contingent.

This dude was using his 9 to bully. He basically pretended to be a cop to get his way. Being drunk, 21+, and in a Waffle House or Denny's in the early morning is almost a right of passage where I come from. If the management of the restaurant had no problem with these kids, then this dude was waaaayyyyy out of line.
