Nothing wrong with that in and of itself. We have a right to carry.
Still super early, we don't have a lot of information yet.
I am curious why he was being detained in the first place. If it turns out that they detained him just because he was armed then this will probably not be ruled justified.
Do we know why he was being disarmed?
Republicans (specifically Tom and Boilerman) lecture us constantly about the freedom to carry firearms. That makes us all safer. And now they are all upset someone was armed.
He didnt brandish the weapon. He didnt point it at anyone. He just had it on him. And it was removed. And they killed him after it was removed.
Now the DHS is investigating themselves. Yeah - that'll be impartial.
Folks, we officially have a police state. Until we get a new Congress that will actually impose checks its going to stay that way.

And what's wrong with that?
