There's nothing in the article to back the supposition that the accused is anti-gun or a gun control supporter.

For all we know, he could have been upset that the concealed carrier brought a firearm to a birthday party ... or basketball game ... or corner barber shop.

Of course, that doesn't mean that he was justified or smart. I'd just like to point out that the assumption of the perpetrator being anti-gun is unsupported.

If someone else carrying a gun gets you angry enough that you feel justified in taking the gun away and then SHOOTING the guy, I think its safe to say you are anti-gun.

I know I should just keep my mouth shut,but here goes. I think there are pro gun people that would get all tied up in knots. Does Bearing Arms mean anything to anyone here?? Didn't we just discuss the fact that the Bearing Arms guy doesn't seem to know what side he's on??
I think the guy in the article is anti gun myself.

Just my two cents

I dont recall a story about the guy from bearing arms trying to shoot someone over his feelings that they shouldnt open carry.

Grave, your completely right, Bob Owens (Bearing Arms) has'nt and will never shoot someone over that. I was just making the point about reading more into the story than in there.
While I completely believe it was an anti gun guy that attacked the CC guy,that was not said in the story.

Unfortunately us in the gun community tend to devide or selfs between tactical, hunters, competition shooters. We will bicker and flight amongst our self's. That's all I was pointing out.

I also said I should probably keep my mouth shut.

Just my two cents

Smith, was definitely the jerk here, first robbing the man of his gun, then shooting him with it! That is two criminal offenses. Lock him up. Anti-gun or not, who cares? He is for sure criminal.
That is really hateful of you!

We need to understand the shooter, have tea with little cozies, issue him a law degree, and understudy Rahm Emmanuel. The concealed carry guy needs re-education, sensitivity training, or a poke in the eye.
