can you cite anything proving it is "bogus?"This is a "Bogus" story.
but OC deters criminals. at least thats what im told on OC.org. yes, engaging in an argument probably didn't help."Multiple" guns--sounds like 2.
Rather than a case against OC, I think it is more of a case about SA and not allowing someone to get up on you. And not engaging in arguments.
Melvin F. Bogus, 39, no permanent address, was arrested for second degree reckless endangerment, theft, possession of firearm by felon, possession of cocaine and bail jumping after grabbing the weapon from the man police say was legally carrying his weapons in the open.can you cite anything proving it is "bogus?"
Did you not read the story?can you cite anything proving it is "bogus?"
other than the name, not fake news.Did you not read the story?
You have absolutely no sense of humor, especially a play on words.other than the name, not fake news.
FI, shall we quote more from Ammoland’s self promoting article interestingly & allegedly ‘released the very next day of the incident’...Here's a link with a bit more information.
rest of the story at the link
https://www.ammoland.com/2018/12/wi-open-carrier-in-madison-has-gun-snatched-by-violent-criminal/
Arizona -(Ammoland.com)- -On 17 December 2018, at about 7 p.m. on State Street in Madison, Wisconsin, a 21-year-old open carrier and his friend were hanging out when his weapon was grabbed by a homeless man. At 7 p.m. it was well below freezing. Heavy coats, hats, and gloves were indicated.
State Street runs from the University of Wisconsin to the State Capitol. It is about nine blocks long and is usually crowded with pedestrians, many of which are students. There are numerous bars and restaurants, as well as the Student Union and Memorial Library, Library Mall, and the Wisconsin Historical Society near the West end of the street.
All verified as factual of course. Best way to meet girls EVER. Trigger them with the almighty force of the trigger and then their anger turns into infatuation, everyone knows any emotion is better than no emotion. Hmmm, wonder if some gun bloggers are also writing to meet girls?The 21-year-old open carrier was from Black Earth. Black Earth is a nearby small town. The Second Amendment activist had a shotgun, two pistols, and a large knife/machete. He was attempting to make political points while hoping to strike acquaintance with some girls, maybe get some phone numbers.
These groups are called schools, by the way. Anyone not in a school is a shark and probably just picking up Anti chicks. Right now cross-retention is all the rage; for example attempting to grab John's gun will pull a chain to automatically point Steve's sidearm at the offender. A second chain links to Bob's camera so that he swivels in the right direction too and no action footage is missed. BTW just like drinking and driving and the designated driver, the camera dude NEVER carries, even though doing so would be easy and not interfere with the camera. Matter of principle; only one type of shooting per dude.Most open carriers have some retaining device and travel in groups to guard against precisely such a possibility. If there is more than one person, discussion of what tactics to use is common. Often, an unarmed member of the group will be a designated camera/video man.
Ha ha, just for show, no bullets here in the OC school! But just like Barney it's "advisable" to keep one in your pocket. Wow, thanks to Ammoland for teaching me everything I wanted to know about OC and disarms but was afraid to ask.As the purpose of the political action is political awareness, it is not necessary for all the guns to be loaded. Be particularly aware of people “closing the distance.” Mr. Bogus practiced what Marc MacYoung calls “the interview,” as a way to evaluate his intended victim.
Not bad, that part. Of course if "it is not necessary for all the guns to be loaded" then is such an OCer really "an armed person"?Practice situational awareness. Have a plan on how to prevent a disarm attempt. Use of a retention holster is a good idea.
...
Attacks on open carriers may be rare because of tactical deterrence. Most criminals do not wish to attack an armed person. There is easier prey about. Melvin F. Bogus thought the young open carrier was easy prey. He was wrong.
Uh, er, HP995 was there just a tinge or smidgen of sarcastic innuendo in your post?Holy Shazam, FI and Solus, thanks for the headsup on Ammoland article, my new favorite unintended comedy news site.
