Man With AK-47 Arrested in Downtown Dallas, Ctd.

|

Absolutely, if we’re having an argument and you pull out an AK-47 and wave it at me, you can consider that argument won.  Hard to dispute that.

More details from yesterday’s arrest:

Witnesses say Johnson Nguyen was arguing with some folks at the parking garage of the Davis Building at 1309 Main St. about 3 a.m. when he pulled the semi-automatic rifle out of a red four-door Toyota pickup.

Police say he then waved the rifle in the air “to intimidate the other persons involved in the argument.” The documents don’t say what the argument was about.

The witnesses fled the garage and called 911. When officers arrived, they searched the garage “from the top down” and found Nguyen sitting in the pickup with three other people. The gun was not visible.

Second Amendment fanatics, feel free to complain in the comments about how the police violated this guy’s rights by daring to confiscate a weapon that, by their own admission, he had hidden away in his vehicle.
