A Lithia man has been charged after he tackled another man Tuesday who had a handgun in a holster -- and a permit to carry -- at a Walmart.
Foster had seen Daniels getting out of his vehicle in the lot with handgun, under his coat and in a holster. Foster followed him into the store and then attacked the Daniels, the sheriff's office said.

Off Duty cop?
“A Lithia man”
God Bless those Baltic-Staters!
And the Moms lookin for action are going ballistic over his arrest.
LOL
If he voted, it was for Obama.
A good reminder that “concealed” MEANS concealed!
You can make all of the excuses you want, but the last guy that let his show in a Walmart was shot dead by an over zealous security guard.
Being “dead right” is not my idea of personal security.
(Linus, playing Cowboys and Indians, complaining to Charlie Brown): "Charlie Brown, I shot Lucy but she refuses to fall down and die."
(Charlie Brown): Where, exactly, did you shoot her?
(Linus): Behind the davenport, and if that's not fatal, I don't know what is!"
Doubt it most cops know the rules and most would-ah probably ID self as the fuz and asked the Wall mart shopper if he was legal.
My selection is the perp is a liberal self-proclaimed do-gooder .Happy he was arrested.
Attacked shopper should now sue the snot out of this AH for all the pain and injuries he suffered.
Where did this happen?
Why we should get rid of the separate designations of Concealed carry and Open carry.
Idiot liberal hero wannabe. He is lucky the guy didn’t shoot him in self defense.
Here lies the remains of Samuel Grey,
Who died defending his right-of-way.
He knew it was his as he sped along,
But he's just as dead as if he'd been wrong.
Yet another reason why it needs to be crystal clear that carry is legal (whether concealed, open, or in between).
Moreover, deadly force cannot be used on someone for mere possession of a firearm.
Other facts that would lead an objectively reasonable person to conclude that it is necessary to protect himself or another person from imminent death or serious bodily injury must exist before such force may be used.
It’s not that hard.
The guy that attacked him is lucky he didn’t get shot.
If somebody tried to attack me out of the blue I’d assume they were deranged and I can’t rule out me responding accordingly.

Florida is essentially a "Concealed ONLY" State. Many States follow the Constitution more closely, by not infringing on "the right of the People to keep and bear arms" openly.
RIVERVIEW (FOX 13) - Hillsborough deputies arrested a man who spotted someone with a gun, followed him into a Walmart,
and tackled him. The problem? The man with the gun had a concealed weapons permit, and the man who
rushed him didnt call 911 or alert store security.
According to the sheriffs office, Michael Foster, 43, saw Clarence Daniels, 57, in the Walmart
parking lot with a gun holstered under his coat.
Foster followed Daniels into the store, put him in a choke-hold and brought him to the ground,
the sheriffs office said. He then started yelling that Daniels had a gun.
A struggle ensued, with Daniels yelling that he had a permit. Security detained both men
until deputies arrived.
They confirmed Daniels had a permit for the gun, and arrested Foster.
