        @MegMRivers So why do you need to carry a gun in a "peaceful" march?

        Cause no one is complaining about that here, duh. The issue here is "Why was he suspected?"

        Pro-gun advocates keep saying "we need more people to carry & protect". Perhaps that's not a good idea.

        There was a massive shootout going on and he had a rifle strapped to him. Cooperated with police completely. No fault here.
