Went back up to the coffee shop at safeway after my coffee this morning, to try to help out a homeless guy.This really young dude said something about my pistol.Then he pops off about Mayor Nichols banned guns in Seattle.He was getting loud and a little beligerent.So I raised my voice a hair to get my point across (he was getting loud) about how I just read in the paper he did not in fact ban guns in Seattle nor could he.This kid started yelling about being threatend and said I,m calling the cops.Meanwhile I pointed out that no one is threatening anyone. he just wasn,t litsening .(Besides I had a coffee in one hand and an umbrella in the other )The homeless guy, meanwhilewas sitting there listening and backed my position as this kid was getting annoying.He was real antsi. figety,jumpy loud etc. Well then he started telling me about all the oxycontin,percocets,and medical pot he smokes everdayfor MS.Even showed me pictures of his pot plants . I thought that a little odd .I can feel for himand now started to understand why he was the way he was.The kicker, after saying he was calling the cops ,about 5 Seatac officers came walking out of safeway ,looked right at me ,said nothing and left.I know they saw my pistol but evedently saw the situation for what it was. They alsosaw me at the coffee stand talking with some folks.I do feel for this kid ,probably about 23 or so and messed up with MS.Obviously to me all the drugs he was on was effecting him.
