So everyone understands it is 100% legal to openly carry a rifle in Texas. Andre that is a semi-automatic rifle and not a machinegun. Outside of some cosmetics on the exterior it does not have the same capabilities as the rifle a Soldier carrys in battle. Not only is it perfectly legal to carry the rifle but private citizens are under no obligation to speak to law enforcement unless they are being detained due to probable cause of their envolvement in a crime. This is a perfect example of American law enforcement over reacting and treating law abiding citizens like criminals. Fuck those pigs. Oh and I'm much trimmer than that guy but kiddos for taking one on the chin to show what a bunch of cocksuckers those cops are. Now I happened to have been stationed with that guy and he is pretty over the top on the 2nd amendment even for me but someone shouldn't get treated like that if they haven't broken the law. That being said, what you don't see in this video is the cop asking for him to hand over the rifle so they can talk and the Soldier refuses b/c legally he doesn't have to. The Soldier should have done what he was told then educated the dumbass on the law.

on principle of being the LAW why should he hand over his weapon? Why can't they talk anyway? From what I've seen of spree killers they don't tend to bring there little kids along with them.

He was being more than pedantic. Why don't you handcuff the police and then wrap some gaffa tape over their mouth. Then you can moan at them for not arresting or questioning people. What kind of lesson was he teaching his son ? He couldn't wait to threaten a civil lawsuit. If he hadn't grabbed his rifle back and had been less aggressive then the incident might not have escalated.

The lesson he taught his son is to stand up against bullies and tyrants.

They were hardly tyrannical. There is a thin line between belligerence and standing your ground. He was definitely on the I am going to exercise my right to throw a strop side.
