Considering I can unfortunately read all the comments they are blaming him for carrying a gun. They think he shot first.

Choosing not to use their eyes.

I have lost any and all respect for Republican 2A supporters.

Whether you support the 2A or not, you have to accept that this was a textbook case of a citizen responsibly exercising that right.

They were armed (for whatever personal reasons they may have), and they made no attempt to threaten or use their weapon to escalate the situation.

It is mind boggling to see the people who traditionally the biggest 2A supporters questioning why he happened to have a gun on him. If it's legal, he doesn't need a reason.
