Now, I'm not going to judge this incident one way or another, but if people want hyper-realistic "toy" guns, they need to anticipate the potential consequences.

There was a case in Texas recently where some men were stopped by police for carrying real guns; rifles slung over their shoulders. Had the police driven up, and within 5 or 10 seconds had shot and killed them, then would you be saying that the men in question needed to anticipate the potential consequences?

There is nothing wrong with openn carry.

Yeah, actually I would. You may not like it, but if a cop tells you to drop the gun, and you don't, he is probably going to shoot you.

As a conservative I believe in responsibility, and when something bad happens to me, I worry about what I could have done or can do in the future to make sure it doesn't happen again. And when my children want to do things that might lead them into harm, I stop them.

You can go traipsing through life expecting everyone you encounter to do everything nicely and correct.

I don't have that kind of faith in my fellow man.
