nuc uni: Thank God Mr. Daniels was not seriously hurt by this nimrod... Well-played, anti-RKBA'ers. Well-played. *slow-metered sarcastic clap
Uh, you so sure of yourself to put this guy Foster in our gun control camp?
Did you look at the pictures in your link? It sure looks to me like ccw carrier Mr Daniels is a 62 yo black man, while arrested mr Foster is a 43 yo white man.
.. So, is it even remotely possible to you nuclear uni, that in florida with stand your ground mentality, that Mr Foster the white man, saw a black man's pistol as black man moved exposing it under his coat, so that white man foster saw red & thunk a black man with a gun was trying to rob the store? So he, in his righteous stand your ground mentality, decided to play vigilante & suppress black man to thwart his misperceived evil intentions?
I doubt a bona fide 'anti-gun' person, or gun control advocate, would resolve this in the manner Foster did, with a vigilante assault (we be far more passive). I think that method lies far moreso in the realm of a progun rightwing SYG mentality.
I wonder, do you think mr foster living in tampa bay, might be a gun owner? you can't say for sure one way or the other, can you, nuc uni?
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 didn't call 911 or alert store security. According to the sheriff's office, Michael Foster, 43, saw Clarence Daniels, 62, 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 sheriff's 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.
I'm taking bets & giving odds, that mr foster, is a gun owner.
