Think about it. Why would you want to point an un-loaded gun at someone?

Because you're trying to get the fire-chief, who has no idea if the weapon is loaded or not, to back off? Why would you want to tell the fire chief he has no right to remove him from his burning home? They're trying to to their job and save his home, and that's all they're trying to do, and they don't need idiot civilians getting underfoot in the process. That's the real question here. A responsible, reasonable gun collector who had his head screwed on straight would be outside the home telling the fire chief, "I have a large gun collection in there. It's all legal. Please do your job and don't mess up my guns." That's what a right-minded citizen would say. But no...here we have some fruit-loop "defending" his burning home against the eeeeeeevil fire department, of all things. The Founding Fathers would have let the fire department into their homes.

Man, I hope I have your kind of cool when my house goes up in flames. I doubt I'd be able to get out a coherent sentence.

Hmmm.. Telling choice of words. FYI, firemen are civilians.
