What a sweet old guy! I'll bet that he has a poor opinion of Jim Crow disarming black Americans!

I wish they hadn't put that video online. It will likely encourage some worthless scum to go on a gun stealing mission at his house.
It's fine if you disagree. I can't force you to be correct.

Perhaps. But also perhaps, they won't get very far before they bleed out.

One would hope that would be the outcome. I'd just hate if anything happened to him due to that being shown.

Looked like he had a Browning Auto 5 shotgun. That is a quality piece of equipment right there.
