I reckon I could walk up with my concealed carry pistol and take out a half dozen of these assault rifle toting cretins before they could unsling their unwieldy rifles and get a shot off.

These weapons would be good in a zombie apocalypse, but not much use for a situation someone may actually encounter.

Again, he not only makes himself a high value target in any altercation, he doesn't look like he could fire any of those weapons in a hurry. Plus, he's more likely to blow his own ass up than any assailant.

You folks who know how much those handguns cost could probably guess how much all that rigging is worth.
A little tap on the head from behind with a baseball hat, and the guns are gone.

12. At least he's wearing a mask. He apparently has enough sense to know you can't shoot a virus.

I'm assuming the band on his hat says "Retired", but from this angle it looks like it says something else.

You could be 21 feet away from this guy with a simple knife or club, and be on him before he could clear his holster.

16. Why three guns when he's only got two hands? And what kind of fire fight does he expect...
